Im currently looking at tuning option for old girl again with the new set up and after talking with Kuc he was not only extremely helpful but also came straight out and said that i should have a look around at other tuners as he didn't feel he could get the best out of my set up.

Even after that he has still taken the time to answer questions that i've had so its a big for me to Pro Automotive

I had my 1600 (FJ20) tuned by Kuc and the stanza (Z18) was tuned by Griffo using Kuc's dyno

Service - as posted in a thread last year, was not happy with the service at all, quoted $300 to adjust the map as it already had been tuned. they went ahead and put iridium plugs in it and removed some of the silicon hoses and put heather hose there instead.

have sent several cars down to Kutsie at pro automotive and am very happy withthe results. he's very good with comunication and will talk to u about what you want to use the car for etc.

Service: i was happy with the service but and there is always a but it cost nearly doubble what i was advised (not quoted) would have been close bar the iridums

i was very happy with the feed back about my motor and alike. ive been told this isnt a strong point with boost but i was happy.

i am unsure if i will try some where elce next time.
