Local tuning discussion thread
I thought we should get a local discussion thread on tuning going....... I recently purchased a Utec and perring full tbe exhaust. It has been fun tuning but it would be awsome to talk to some locals about thier tuning experience. I finally got my "mechanical cel fix" built this weekend and it seems to be working well. We shall see if it last .............

and most of us do frequent S-Squared as Sonicsuby stated. I think that Nate (s^2) has tuned UTEC's in the past, and he's very talented on the dyno. give him a call at (916) 442-6409.

Car Info: This aint a bag. It's a shipment.
I'm going with an AP as soon as it comes out for the 05 STi. I don't plan on doing any mods that aren't standard. If I do then I'll just upgrade to the Street tuner.

I think the AP already came out for the 05 STI's
I liked the AP because I could go back to a stock map any time I needed to.
Now that I know that S to the 2 can re-flash back to stock, I'm leaning towards the re-flash.
