Steve has played with my car twice and I've always enjoyed dealing with him. I also set up a group tune for him here in Birmingham where he tuned around 6 cars. I sat in the car with him a lot of the time and watch/talk to him about everything. He's a excellent person to have tune your car and he'll also tell you what he's doing and discuss things with you.



Very stand up guy with excellent ability....I HIGHLY suggest everyone using him, its the best money you'll spend on your car. In addition its cheap at $300+dyno time......hell, thats one of the cheapest "mods" I did to my car lol



Its hard for me to understand why people will pay $1500 to drop thier charge temps but wont pay $500 to have thier car tuned lol



*** ALSO - according to Steve as of early December out of all the cars he has tuned there has only been one pop and it was NOT due to tuning. The customer had a manual boost controller and wanted to turn the boost up 1-2psi but it instantly skyrocketed to well over 20psi and that was that.

Hwy. 3127 @ Hwy. 20 to Oak Alley Plantation exit is clean. It's apparently clean from 20 to St. Charles parish. But, that's too far from Thibodaux.

I recomend him also, he's a great guy. I've never had a chance to let him tune my car becuase it seems like every time he makes around this area, something happens to it.

I was very pleased with the tunning he did on my car. The 467 RWHP wasn't bad either... just wish my fuel pump wasn't running out of steam might have made more I'd recomend him to anyone.

I highly reccomend him also. He's a really good guy. Not only does he do a great tuning job, he takes the time to talk to you about what you want the car to do, how much you are willing to push the tuning, and while tuning he will tell you exactly what he is doing, and the effect it has on the car.

When I did my new engine and single setup the car ran OK, after steve tuned it, the car was a ******* beast. So not only do you get a quality car tuning, you get some education on the whole tuning process, and how it effects your specific vehicle.

get enough people in your area(10 or so) and he will fly out to you. I'm not sure of the price though, I got a deal, I allways get "deals"

From what I understand he's still tuning out of Gotham Racings shop in Watuaga, TX... I've heard he travels.. but is he even on this board? I've also heard nothing but great things about his work and his car sounds like a chainsaw on PCP... sick sick ****...
