Yes Shawn is our priemere SoCal tuner. Shawn is an excellent guy and has tuned quite a few of our 2AZ and D17 customers

Mightygnu

He also is a huge fan of our cars, and is the only tuner I'll go to.. well that and of course you Paul!

Mr_Meaty

So, where is this shop, exactly? Any contact info? website maybe?
We go to Cali fairly often and I may want to have him take a look at what I'm doing with mine.

Oh, and what does he charge hourly? And how long did it take?

Mightygnu

mine took about an hour and a half/2 hours tops. he charged a flat rate of $325 (plus tax) i think to tune mine.

prpnum1

Yay he worked on mine for like 3+ hours but only charged me 160 cuz it was his first time with the FI/C, and i went back like a month later when I put my exhaust on for another 1.5 hr for free Yay for being the first FI/C there

Mightygnu

very nice! great guy too!

Mr_Meaty

Thanks for the info, all.
My in laws may be buying a place up in Port Hueneme, so that would only be about 1.5 hours away when I visit.
I'll have to put that on my list of possibles.

aen

O_O really. 2 hours for 325??!

Mightygnu

He is recognized as one of the best tuners in the U.S.

Mr_Meaty

Yeah, price is good, but I dont' think anyone here is familiar with the f/ic yet, and DEFINATELY not on the tC.

Mightygnu

I know Shawn @ Church's has tuned a few tC's with the AEM F/IC.

aen

well, i'm slowly getting there, i'm sure if i talk to shawn church, he'll help me out a bit with understanding our cars. that way i can help the rest of the f/ic people here in vegas.

Mightygnu

He is a hard man to reach, but great at what he does!

paul_dezod

Shawn is familiar with the tC, the FIC AND our EMS for the tC. So do not be afraid to take your 2AZ there. Tell him Paul from Dezod sent you!!!

Mightygnu

mmmm EMS!

Mr_Meaty

Yeah...I meant no one here in Vegas is familiar with the F/IC.
gerabaldy has a guy in colorado that has done the F/IC on the tC and Todd's got a guy in Arizona that has done the F/IC on the tC.
It's down to cali or az for me, but I don't have the funds right now.
so in the mean time, i'll just be making minor adjustments to get my wot a little leaner as it's going full rich.

Hey, I posted this Q in another thread but got no answer:
Regarding AFRs, I know 14.7 is where I should be when not in boost...where should it be at WOT, and where whould it be in partial throttle?

aen

i need to tune hte idle that im having trouble with.

not in boost 14.7 - 15.~
WOT 10.2 - 11.5~
partial - 12.~ - 13.~

i think.that's what i tuned mine to

Bryan06tC

I think in any situations where boost is being built you wanna be and 12.2 or .4 I think in that range for partial throttle .... and at WOT 11.1 is where flame speed is highest and you can pull timing etc. I think in that range would be good.... I am just adding my .2 cents with my lil knowledge

Mr_Meaty

That's exactly what I was going to go for.
I'm currently at 10.2wot and 11.0 at partial, so I wanna bring those both up a full 1.0.

Thanks to both of you.
Can't I just do this by pulling fuel? Or do I have to mess with timing as well?
