We are a week away from the tuning session. Please have your fuel filter (1yr or 12k miles), spark plugs (no more than 3 months or 1k miles) replace if needed.

Also, Please PM me with your list of mods so that I can go through them.

If you are running Microtech, I will need a adapter that interfaces to the laptop so that I can tune your car

thanks,

Steve

slight delay. My flight from DFW to Vegas was delayed due to some technical difficulity so i will miss my connection. I have to change my flight just so that I can make it there semi early. My flight will arrive around 10;30am. This is the earliest I can be at the airport according to the airline.

Justin,
Please call me so that I can update you with my flight schedule.

IMPORTANT:

Hopefully everybody sees that Steve's flight was delayed. He will be at the airport at 11:30 so tuning won't start until Noon. If you are scheduled for SATURDAY ONLY call my cell number at 503-957-2561. Sunday should be on as scheduled.

Sorry for the delay,
Regards,
Justin

thanks to all who give me an opportunity to perform my services on your car. I was fortunate to be able to get most of you guys sorted out and tune before I leave to the airport. The delay with the flight definately put a big dent on my schedule and sleep.
I hope that you guys will enjoy your new tune.

If any of you have any questions, feel free to contact me

Steve

Hey Justin, thanks again for setting this up, good luck on the move!

Steve, I thought the car ran pretty well before you worked on it, now there is really no comparison, amazing! Thanks for the excellent job.

I'll be posting a full report soon, but WOOOOWWW. The cliff notes: My car runs so much better now. No stalling, hesitation, or other shenanigans. Just smooth power.

Perfect.

And a big thanks to Jarrad at PDXtuning for really going the extra mile at the dyno.

It was nice meeting everybody and anybody that needs some further help from me can contact me.

Regards,
Justin

I drove the car to work yesterday (woundup drove home from the tune) and am really amazed at how well she drives. I too thought she was in pretty good shape before, but now it's just great. I can feel all the power underneath my right foot just waiting to be unleashed. I don't know if it's the increased torque or something else, but it's hard to resist and seriously the gas pedal just feels different and better.

Everything is better, no stalling, smoother idle, better response, etc, etc.

Thanks again everyone - M
