what are they saying we will have if we decide to have them come down?

will be see (not expect to see) improvements at the track can they definately say there will be improvements?

what company is doing this?

what if you're a ****ty driver. who actually drives the car when tuning?

what system do THEY prefer to work with and why?

500 per person if you have a license already ($450 if 10 people total
being
tuned)

$900 per person if a license is required ($850 if 10 people total are
being
tuned).

Basically as per the earlier email the per person tuning cost would be
$500
for 5 people and if it was 10 it would be $450 per person you simply
add the
license fee of $400 to the cost if requiring a EcuTek license.

are we required to purchase the AccessTuner software prior to Him coming down to tune the car? if not will there be a special pricing for the accesstuner software if it's required since the protuner software requires accesstuner file types?

where is this tuning going to happen and what time of day/night?

can any turbo be used get a tune? i'm looking at getting something different than a vf series turbo so that is a factor. of course i'll have to stay with my STI 565cc injectors and upgraded fuel pump.

are we required to provide a WB02 system for him or is he bringing one that we can use on everyones car?

what is the approximate time you'll be spending tuning each car? how will we know that the tune is getting better/worse with each hour you spend on our cars?

if this person is driving our cars and soemthing brakes while tuning who takes care of that?
