Yeah up by me, Sean Ivey is the way to go. He is located in Linden NJ.

[nebs]

What is his shop called?

[2gdanny]

+1 on him not that i got work done by him but some friends i know that did cant stop talking about him.

you also got turbotrix in edison
dogbox in howell- most local dsmer's go there/ they will be doing my car also they are super cool really helpfull and most off my friends that have done ther work there are really happy.

[dsm908]

Sean Ivey's shop is called "Ivey Tunning" not to difficult, but your right, TurboTrix is another good one as well as DogBox. I just stick with Ivey because heis local, and a very nice guy

I would not recommend Turbotrix as I know of over quite a few cases where the cars' engines or transmissions were blown up or had to be redone. My cousin's 92 Laser had a faulty clutch install by them which resulted in his 2600 being shot. I know of a Subie that after a full engine/tranny build in under 1500 miles has blown up from them. It was broken in properly also. There are plenty more horror stories to share too.

Alex at Dogbox racing in Howell has had to redo quite a few Turbotrix trannys as I've talked to him myself and have done business with him. Its worth the trip out there if you want a tune from them, but he doesn't do it in house, he tunes it somewhere else because its not big enough for a dyno in there.

Also there's Precision tuning in Brick. They specialize in Subies, and have their own in house AWD dyno. John who tunes there has been tuning DSMs and Evo's with Open ECU and DSMlink and he has it pretty down pat.

+1 on Turbotrix, I've heard the same thing. I definitely wouldn't trust them.

[No_Skillz]

I also would not trust turbotrix. The one bit of work I had them do on my car was half-assed. I credit them to me being motivated to learn and mod my own car. I've been down to Dogbox's shop and they are good people. Plus, they are supporting vendors.

Also, some of us local guys are more than willing to help a brother out. Just ask.

[nebs]

thanks guys. Turbo trix destroyed my friends evo so there out of the question. But ill check into the other places!

[hpexperts]

Ivey Tunning is the way to go. check tham out you will see what i mean

[LTUDSM]

i duno bout IVEY Tuning,cu someone recomend that to my friend,that he is a good tuner,but my friend wasn'y happy bout the work,that Ivey did to his evo .he went there to tune his evo,and he had anly 345 whp.With his setup (35gtr,1050cc injectors,flashed esu,3in turboback exhaust,huge fmic,280 cams),after that he went to JNZ tuning and had the apointment at Philly dynoworx.and after that tune,my friend was happy as hel .He got 413WHP on 93 octane.and 23psi.....

[tsitalon03]

I got my 6 bolt swap done and a few other things at turbotrix.....they didnt do a bad job it was just kinda expensive. I also been to dogbox a few times and yea Alex and tha boys are mad cool over there and got good prices

[nebs]

Does dogbox have a website or a phone number. I googled them and i cant find it

[2gdanny]

yes they do havea website

http://www.dogboxracing.com/

+1 on dogbox no questions asked

[4seaer]

turbotrix is not the shop to go to for tuning,they tune to what they want to tune rather then what the car can actually make.I think they don't want to have anybody show them up or you don't have the setup they want to tune. My buddy went there w/ his setup and only made 500,went to Ivey and got 680? Now Sean Ivey say's he only want to tune AEM, SO i GUESS IT DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU HAVE..??

[97GSXmitsy]

I would definately recommend Dogbox. They built my cars motor and trans and did the tuning. They did a great job, and the prices were reasonable. I wouldnt go anywhere else.

[2gdanny]

if you guys know ivey tuning , do you guys know felix medina?

he works with ivey and mike some times.

[nebs]

i called ivey and dogbox. They both havent returned my call. Kinda pissing me off

Felix medina aka GATO tuning?

That guy is the man, Tunes alot of heavy duty hondas including his own which went 9.3 not too long ago.I'm not sure if he messes with dsms though.

[2gdanny]

you are right he his the man and yes he does mess with everything he built my friends prelude he does tune eclipse, evos, sti, bmw, hondas, anything and everything.
i long time ago i had asked him if he could tunne my with the link and he said yeha i have never messed with it but ill do it thats a reall tuner.

[rich3389]

I am from jersey and I tune myself...Why spend the money if I dont trust them anyways.

[blcknspo0ln]

I could tune it, but not without a wideband.
