Default Del Val Tuning

Hey guys wanted to see who does tuning (and on what units) in DelVal. I'm on the fence about buying a comptech S/C kit, but I don't want much more than 300whp. I heard that their included "black box" is junk. Since I'm trying to stay cheap I would prefer a lower priced system (like an E-manage).

So who tunes in our relative vicinity and on what systems?

Is it truly worth upgrading to an AEM EMS and losing OBDII for a low powered kit?

I've been working with RT tuning in lansdale with my tuning needs for my Evo. There's also always Evan's tuning. I'm not sure if they do emanage but their website should help. Reach out to Vince or Erik at RT.

Holy hell lol. Ya I'm starting to think that if i end up picking up a S/C kit i'll just keep it low boost and stick with the supplied FPR.

That's the conclusion I came to when I was considering a supercharger. I have no experience with FI so the less complicated it is, the less problems I'll likely have.

From what I read on the FI section it seems the FPR that comes with it is fine for just having 300hp.

TurboTagTeam (mike) told me he could help me. I would 100% trust him to do it, he's in Bensalem I think? Since he has his own shop I think he might let you lend a hand/watch so you could be more familiar with it, instead of just dropping it off and picking it up.
