You're an hour away from Uprev HQ in Austin. Go there you won't be sorry.

I've had nothing but good experiences with Jotech. I recommend them highly.

Epic fail. Do some research on here, nothing but promises and talk, no concrete proof that they offer anything superior to Uprev... plus features that were coming "any day now!" since last summer...

Also I'd be wary about dynotronics after their customer service and refund issues...

I don't have first hand experience with anyone on your list except Jotech which I will recommend. I thought they were professional and very knowledgeable about what works and what doesn't. I have confidence that they will stand by their work as well.

I did. I got a little more than 300 RWHP with K&N intakes and test pipes. Everything else is stock. Those numbers might seem a little low but it was 106 degrees that day and the car had less than 700 miles on it. I'm sure it's putting down more power now after it has been broken in, but I really don't care about numbers. The difference in throttle response alone is worth the price of a tune. I didn't do a before dyno, but my butt tells me I probably picked up 30-40 HP. If you're looking to hit a specific HP number, Jotech might not be the place for you. They are going to tune the car to the proper A/F ratio so that you are safe and whatever HP you finally end up with is what it is.

You mentioned most of them. Another one is Cobb tuning.
