I have been talking to a great tuner down in the states who has an extremely good reputation, has tuned many great cars that prove his great work, and is one of the go to guys when it comes to tuning a honda and getting base maps burnt.

His rates for a full dyno tune and street tune are around $500-600 depending on how much time is required. That is half of what it costs at local shops that claim to be amazing tuners that not only charge double what a tune should cost but also only include the dyno tune, not the street tune. As many know the street tune is an extremely important part of the tune since it tunes for part throttle, not just WOT.

Anyway, i figured i would mention that i am going to fly him up here around mid summer. He suggested i mention it to others to make air fair cheaper (anyone who wants a tune pitches for airfair) and to help alot of you guys out who are sick of paying insane rates for a mediocre tune.

So if any of you guys plan on getting your cars tuned (he does all imports) around mid summer let me know if you are interested in flying him down here. It could save alot of money and get you an actual quality tune.

edit* I forgot his last name so i am going to find it out then post it.

It really is up to those who want to get a tune. Personally i have a free dyno for myself so where ever others what to have their tune is up to them.

I'll confirm what ems's he can tune with. I know ECtune, Hondata, Chrome, AEM, and i am positive many others. He is actually a distributor for EMS systems as well.

I'll pm today and hopefully will have an answer by tomorrow.

Sorry for the delay guys here is the PM he sent me

"Steve Belliveau, Bishop Motorsports of Canton CT. well known on evo-m's forums for evo work, as well as many different autocross sites, and some subaru forums.

i can tune: crome, hondata s200 and s300, ecuflash, greddy emanage and emanage ultimate, aem fic, pectel, dsmlink, pcx, and a few others im sure im forgetting. i can most likely work with almost any system as long as i can get the software for it or if the customer supplies the software.

for honda systems, if they want either form of hondata, they either just need to already have the hardware (ecu already prepped for it) or they need to buy it from me ahead of time so i can bring it with me. i can get neptune rtp, and can tune that as well, i just havent tuned any of those yet. i have played with the software though and am comfident in using it.

aem ems im sure i can do as well, but id really rather not lol, as it is extremely time consuming and expensive, and i dont have a lot of experience with it yet.

i do a lot of evo's and subaru's, and have used a good number of systems with those, but i'll need advance notice of what they'd like to be tuned with if any are interested in those

oh, also, my shop shares the same building as turbokits.com
they actually pay us rent lol. so i do a lot of installs and tunes for them as well."

There you guys go Someone who actually knows what they are doing. Like i said, i will most likely flying Steve up in mid summer when my project is finished. If you are interested in getting a tune let me know so that we can all benefit from this tuner and keep the costs to a minimum.
