Default More problems Tuning

Well yesterday I went to get the car tuned at API Tuning. The guy seemes nice but didn't totally know what he was doing. So I was a little worried for my car. So eventually the guy figures out what he is doing and we start to make a little progress. By the way I had switched to emanage because my AEM EMS was FUBAR. So waiting to buy another one. But while tuning the e manage every time the car went under load the volts would drop to 12.5. Then I could touch the window switch and the volts would go back to normal. So obviously couldn't tune cause volts would change and the map would change. My ground is good my battery and all my other connections. The guy said it could be my alternator or something in it. Someone please HELP. And if anyone can recommend someone who can really tune and any contacts for MIKE SIMON. I would be very thankful. I have been fighting this battle for the last year and am tired.
thanks

wow, that's pretty surprising. I haven't heard anything but praise for that shop. Some kid got 700whp on his civic from there without any problems.

Check the window switch, and everything related to it. There's a lot of resistance coming from it obviously. Could even be a small short on it too.

wow that sucks.. I hate problems like that... i remember going thru the same shit u are.....

For Mike Simon contact Chris the dude that drives the fast car..... Kane probably has his contact....

as for the voltage problem One question, did you use a harness or did u splice the wires, if you spliced the wires shame on u and you probably shorted then or miss connected some....

Good luck.................
