Best place for Dyno tune in DFW/Austin/Houston/SA area???
I just want everyones opinions and preferences about where to get your WRX's and STI's tuned in the area. I've heard great things about MZM, Henderson Performance, EL etc...
I'd like to know everyones feelings about the tuners and PRO's/CON's or goods/bads or however you want to explain it. I'm getting my car tuned in the near future so am looking for some knowledgeable and helpful answers in regards to your success stories/failure stories..... This thread should be vastly opinionated and everyone IS entitled to their own opinion so NO BASHING!! Just let us know Like I said... THIS IS NOT A BASH THREAD.. so play nice guys

i had my 03 tuned at mzm and have nothing to say but good things, they are subaru experts and really good at what they do, the majority of the cars they tune are subies, and hey it's in ur town. im in nc right now and i just bought an 06 sti and am waiting till i go back to tx in a few months to go back to them. plus they have had some customers cars in some import magazines. really great service.

Thanks for your input! MZM is a great little shop and Mohammad and company are good people. They have nothing to do with the open source side of things and stick with COBB AP Protuning and ECUtek flashes.

EL has a great Dyno and has a great staff nothing but good things to say about them.
oh and I should add that I have not spent a dime in that shop I am going off of simply time that I have spent getting to know the Knowledge and the Personality and Customer service that EL has to offer. BE@ST |

The next ecu definition release will allow users to modify the amount of timing pulled when the knock signal is set. Default on the 07 STI is 1.4 degree steps. You can change the learned advance value already. That is, if your car has learned some knock out and it does not see knock for some time, it will step up timing in increments. You can change this step value. Default on the 07 STI is 0.35 degrees. For the 16 bit ECUs, you can do everything ECUTek/Cobb can except Ramtune. Ramtune for 16 bit ECUs is coming soon as well as speed density (hopefully soon) for 32 bit ECUs.

Jav, my concern is that I have an 07 STI which is a TOTALLY different ECU than he is use to tuning. The definitions released for Enginuity aren't even complete for the 07 yet..... see my concern?
