Default My FREEKTUNE experience

For all you undecided faggots, here is a little review of my tuning adventure with Justin.

As someone who tracks the pig roughly once a month, it is very important to me to work with a tuner who understands what kind of demands road racing puts on the car, both on the tune side and on the mechanical side. In a track environment shit breaks all the time, it takes time for new parts to arrive and install, sometimes parts do not fit on the unicorn and it takes more time to order more parts that hopefully fit. Often a tune performs great on the street and not so great on the track, and I have to wait another month to test a revised map at the track, and so on. It is not unusual for a 'revision' to take 3 months because of all the above constraints.

I have been working continually with Justin since June 2012 and it has been quite a ride for me and I thank Justin for sticking with me through all the 'oh shit!' moments and the inevitable delays those moments imposed on us.

Here is a short summary of my tunes:

June 2012 -- first full tune, basic bolt ons (HPFP, stock diameter intake, TP)

July 2012 -- added TMIC, quick retune, clutch went out, finished retune late August

December 2012 -- another retune (pnp'd IM)

March 2013 -- second full tune (BNR) -- this was one of the 'great on street, bit too much for track' tunes which took us into late May to finish

October 2013 -- after rebulding the car from fire, quick retune for catless DP + chasing various gremlins into November

December 2013 -- this was supposed to be my third full tune (GTX3071 EWG) but after a failed install, we rolled the payment into another retune

January 2014 -- boost creeping like crazy, went back to catted DP, added EM, figuring out gremlins, just finished the tune

The car, when not misbehaving because of mechanical or electrical issues, has been running beautifully winter or summertime.

I look forward to yet another full round of tuning with Justin, this time hopefully on a built block and a big turbo!

Sincerely,

Code Monkey

I just began my first tuning experience with Justin. Aside from being recommended to me by the guys at Edge, I have read countless positive feedback threads about his professionalism, and his skill. I can't wait to see where this ends up, and then to start the retune with any other pieces I purchase along the way haha!

Thank you for the write up and compliments. The fire really put some gremlins in there, but all in all your car has been a pleasure to tune.

After your gtx fiasco, I thought you may set in on fire purposely. lol.

I will summarize my experience.

Got logs, got maps, got a lot more power and zero issues with the car. It hauls balls like most of the '13s and I requested some maximum thresholds when Justin was putting my tune together.

Confidence in my 25% corn Freek tune is off the chart.

At no point do I want to light my car on fire or boost creep
