it's worth stating again with a new thread. Sebastian Chacoff with Specialty Z is the man.

I had my Z tuned remotely several years ago (by another tuner), and it definitely woke things up and made my car more fun to drive. Since that time, a few more goodies have been added and I thought it was time to tune things again.

My first choice was to get a dyno tune, but there's no one in Memphis (or the immediate surrounding area) that I trust to do that. So, I contacted Seb back in December, and he thoroughly answered each and every question that I had.

Fast forward to July - I contacted Seb again and told him that I wanted to move forward. This can not be overstated - Seb's professionalism, timeliness, and patience exceeded my expectations. His communication was constant and consistent, and the entire experience was easy and completely worthwhile.

He listened to me, understood my goals and concerns, and tuned accordingly. Driving my Z is like driving a new car. I'm NA, with nothing fancy; just the normal bolt-on parts, but from idle to redline, I have a new experience. I don't just like driving my Z; I love it.

Seb + EcuTek =

Yup. He's an excellent tuner.

His tech L.J. who does a lot of work and installs is a good mechanic.

I'll be contacting Seb soon to get a touch up tune once I'm finished with my mods. Yes, he is everything you said!

I feel lucky to have easy access to Seb & the boys @ Specialty Z.

They do know their stuff.

Always heard great things not only about just gains, but the reliability and speed that he gets back to you!! Everytime his name is brought up people are amazed at the speed and quality of his tunes. Hopefully he can help me out in canada when it comes time
