Also I'm not bashing you... I'm just stating that your prices are outrageous, and what better place to say that than where you are stating these prices? Just looking out for my fellow subie drivers

 

Again, unbelievable. I have tuned nearly 1,000 Subaru's and run WELL over 99% "thrilled with their tune rate" and people are in the thread specifically about my next tuning trip posting about other tuners that apparently help those that choose to tune themselves.

You know why there are professional tuners that charge $150+ per hour for tuning? Because there are people that want PROFESSIONALS that tune all day every day to tune their cars.

For the record, there are tuners that charge over $200 per hour and on other makes people get $600, $800, or even $1k for a SINGLE REFLASH or for less than an hour of tuning. So for those of you that think $150 per hour for a guy who tunes all day every day, you just don't even know what other people are paying.

This is not "looking out for fellow Subaru owners." If you were really looking out for fellow Subaru owners you would be making threads about "better" options, you'd be setting up "install days" or if you're really that great of a tuner you'd be offering your own services tuning, not coming into a thread about a tune that's already setup and feeling like a big man behind a keyboard bashing an internationally known tuner.

Congratulations, I'm glad you have been able to bash a guy who relies on providing services to Subaru owners to make a living.

Have any of you ever considered that there is a need for people that become "experts" in a field by doing it everyday. Who do you think figures out the really hard and confusing stuff for "fellow Subaru owners"? Who do you think does the development and beta testing on the new cars? If you are really so bent on putting all the guys who tune for a living out of business do you really think that will help the Subaru community?

Bump... LOL j/k...

anyway, I know what people pay... Too much.. you tried charging me 200 bucks for 20 minutes of road tuning. You made 4 pulls on my car...

I pay $350 for a FULL 35R tune. One was at TTP Engineering in Orlando. The other is up here in New England.

 

hmm well stiscooby with his green and other mods barely pulled dans old sti with an off the shelf romraider map with a vf39 and tbe... so if thats professional tuned then i dont want that shit

ive notcied a lot more pople that you used to tune start going for a gadiel tune... whys that scott? if youre the self proclaimed greatest tuner alive?

 

out of everything in that post... All I can think about is... "people know me"

 

all i can think about is "get that dirt of your shoulder" when i read that haha
the worlds motherfuckin greatest

 

I'm not trying to be a tuner. I have a real job. Want to know who's really helping the subaru community: the people who in their spare time who write the code for FREE for Opensource/Romraider. Not people who try to make a living out of over charging people for their knowledge. I actually didn't even bash you and if you think I am get over yourself.

As far as install days... if you want to work on your car in the parking lot of my town home come on over we can use my cresent wrench and a flashlight...

Yeah and just because I dont have a big fancy garage doesnt mean I'm not helping the community. Go on some open source forums I have free maps out there. I made a map for the Grimmspeed BCS about a month after it came (probably the first free one out there). I also have a VF39/Sti Tmic/3port BCS map out there too (again the only one I've seen for a 06/07 WRX). And if anyone out there wants some advice on tuning I'd help them out. So STFU, like you said you dont even know me.

 

wtf? I haven't even posted in this thread until now. I keep the bs to pm's. Most of the time.

 

Ignorant statement? I'm talking about tuning your own car. It's not something that somebody should just pick up and test out on their own car.

Also, yea $450 for a tune is ridiculous, but back when I got tuned it wasn't nearly that much. But, I guess that's the price to fly someone down and to use the dyno etc.
