Default Where to get AEM EMS tuned in AZ?

I will have my turbo kit done by this coming weekend and need a reputable place to tune it. I have heard a lot of good stuff about UMS and SoS. Anyone have experience with either? Who did the work and how much did you pay?

On avg, what did it cost you guys to tune? I assume they do an hourly cost but im just curious what kind of price to be expecting.

I think a full build and tune on one of those is around $500, but I am not totally sure. I had chrome on mine, which has most of the maps already there, Just some tweaking involved. I saw him build the maps for that NSX pictured, and it is a COMPLETE build for everything, timing and fuel. It took about 6 hours, and as a sidenote for the hookup, I am to be invited to see the tune on said tubo s2k. or else the price will be tripled.

Cost about $750 for the full tune and it does take about 5-6 hours.

Will they let you hang around and watch while they work?

if you know him i don't think he minds. the first couple hours you wouldn't want to be there anyways cause it is just building and that is slow. the last hour or 2 is when he starts making the fun stuff. i used to hang out once in a while and see the radical things he was tuning. amazing tuner. phillie corrected me, but then again, like i said, i didn't know.
