...but
you are welcome to try us at anytime (we often work late ;-)
We are different from your traditional tuner like Cobb,
Vishnu, Vivid Racing (they sell their product under the name Agency Power)
etc and do not compete directly with them. Tuners sell “installation”
and “product”. Many tuners make a lot of their money
on the installation. We teach/promote how to do the installation yourself.
Tuners have their own product packages/stages. They will tell you that
their “system”, using only their parts, gives you the “best”
solution and if you use somebody else’s stuff, you are “stupid”
and/or “up a creek”. Let’s be honest …while it
is true that their packages are great solutions, they are also loosing
money if you don’t buy their system…it’s what they sell.
In the real world of selling, beware of people who try to use classic
FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt…a classic sales tool). Ask yourself,
do they have their best interests in mind or mine?
You can “mix-n-match” if done properly. For example, you
could combine an Invidia, Helix, APS, Borla HUSH or other exhaust with
a a Cobb AccessPortECU, Unichip, UTEC, etc. Yes, you may be missing that
last 1 hp promised by the tuner…but you did get the exhaust look
and sound you wanted…and you saved a TON of cash.
Don’t think for a minute that we are bashing Traditional Tuners.
It’s because of them that there are so many great products out there.
Most tuners are great and can get your ride singing quickly and usually
without a hitch. If we were running a race team and had the funds to hire
someone like Cobb, we would (Trey Cobb and Shiv/Vishnu are that good)!
However, this site was started because most people don’t have the
cash, time, or can travel to take their car to a tuner.
Perhaps a more accurate name for this site would be “SCOOBY TUNERS”,
since this is a community where the average Joe Enthusiast comes to get
the knowledge/wisdom and parts of tune his own car.
What is the old saying…”give a man a fish and you feed him
for one day…teach a man how to fish and you feed him for life!”
We want to teach you how to fish…or rather, tune your current vehicle
and your new ones in the future.
What do we expect in return? We want you to “pay it forward”
and help others by contributing back to the community with your tips,
tricks, likes, dislikes, etc. We also know that it is simple to come here
for “free” knowledge and then purchase your modifications
elsewhere (especially, where we give you the name/location of installers
in your area). Before you make that purchase from someone else, give use
a chance to earn your business…hopefully, you will find our willingness
to help, “free information”, great products, and honesty a
great value.
