So why are these guys making Turbo kits that you have to take somewhere else to get tuned??

this company lost my vote.

Of course I realize this, but to spend 600 on a tune, then drive 300 miles and spend another 300-600 on a tune in my mind is crazy.

Correction I only charged 395 for the tune and this included the license. out of good faith I sent a Cipher Cable for free. Not to mention I also got some sponsorship for gauges.
By the way the cable cost 250 and the license is 250. i know its crazy right?

You guys only provide in house builds with your kit would you ever consider selling the KIT so us DIYers could save a couple of bucks on Labor and Car moving costs

Something tells me you might have had an unpleasant experience going turbo or with the company.

Great stuff with the Turbo Isamu. Looks boss from the pics man. What's next? Yes I'm already asking you that question

Honestly, I'd be livid if I had to get a re-tune within the same time frame. That's dolla dolla bill, yall.

No experience, but I am looking at going turbo, and they are in Fl like me, only 5-6 hours away, but I'm not going to go spend 8-10K on a kit that needs a retune 300 miles later.

The first question was just that, a question. I didn't understand the need for the retune.

I would love to know myself...But nobody Z1 can send me logs to where we made a mistake. we tune a LOT of cars and never had a cust get a retune. I stand behind my tunes and our builds 100% Our Dyno is the most used Dyno in Tampa. there are times we have tuned 20 cars in a week.
My Tuner has tuned cars in the 3000hp power range. We are humans and there is going to be mistakes.

By the way his A/F was 12.2, that is not that high, that can be the difference between two different WIdebands? Two different Dyno's Two different states?

There is a lot of different type of conditions.

Well since you live in Fl. you remember that tropical storm we had couple weeks back? i tuned that car during the storms and my dyno was flooded. the weather was intense and I think thats why are tune was off.

correct, she was just a little lean up top and Z1 fixed it..
the code was from the MAP sensor saying.. wtf.. why am I seeing so much pressure.. it's nothing anyone can do... unless I get a bigger MAP..but then, where I am going cold starts would be a bitch...
the kit is outstanding, the Z1 guys were impressed, and that says a lot to me
