Probably not. I don't work for MVP I work for RSI. RSI does all the shop work on the Vipers, Supras, GTRs etc. MVP just sells parts.

Welcome to the dallas area.

As for tuning shops I'd recommend T1 or Alamo. Bryce from Alamo is a nice guy, he's the owner and is legit. They have quality tuning and fabrication there too if needed. Bryce's brother is actually a race car driving instructor. I used to be their moms Banker lol. They tuned my STI and 240sx sr20

I think Tony from T1 actually used to work for Jotech and tuned their cars(somebody correct me if I'm wrong). They invest a lot of time getting their cars tuned properly. He tuned my Integra Type R NA

I've only experienced a handful of shops and these two have seem to do the best work IMO.

Best of luck in choosing which shop to send your s2000 to.

If you plan to tune at T1, you better hurry! Tony just posted on his facebook that not only is T1 moving to a larger better location (still in rockwall/rowlett), but are considering only tuning cars that they have built!!

Congrats to him. I can totally understand why he'd do that. Thanks for the heads up in case I go FI this year. OKIDAN has some options now. Let us know if you have any other questions. Welcome again!

Thanks guys, made the move yesterday, it will be another month before I trailer my car down. Need to find a good storage spot, I still have a few more parts I want to finish up on my car before the tune. I went by T1 they took all my info n I never heard back from them so I may just finish up the rest of my stuff n take it some where for a good base tune for now.

+1 for Brice at Alamo. He'll be tuning my S2000 when I get my turbo installed. He's been around for a long time. I used to deal with them on a regular basis back when I was in the car tuning mode about 8-10 years ago. I have never had a bad experience from there. Actually, I just had them install my clutch Friday. I thought I wouldnt be getting my car back until Saturday, but he had the guys stay and finish it up so I could get it Friday night.

Well Seth at cartuneperformance hooked me up with a solid tune last Friday. I have a few small things to pick up, and then I'll add more boost to the mix.
Just wanted a low boost base tune for now, so I can feel out the new motor more. Is any one rolling out to IFO in the morning?
