Scott, in cases like this. Do you give each a hit or just the one that is actually the tune?

Yes, Protomotive hardware. Does that include the Tial's? Does that include the BBi coils? What about injectors, or IC's? Exhaust?

Calm down Frank. I was just clarifying as I didn't want to make any assumptions. Scott is trying to make a survey that has validity. I have BBi Coils, and injectors and fuel pumps as well oh and a Fabspeed exhaust. He didn't ask for the individual components of your setup and who made them he asked for the tuner of the car. Protomotive tuned my car. I wasn't trying to antagonize you. Before you take an attitude with someone you haven't met don't you think it would be wise to actually do so. Not here to stir any ****. I mean you obviously have good taste.

Have a good one.

I would presume so, since Akram puts the car on the dyno, does the baseline run, installs the software/firmware, then tunes accordingly . . . what else does a "tuner" do?

He also builds motors, transmissions, suspensions, & braking systems.

He also diagnoses, repairs, & services Porsches, BMW's, Audi's, Vette's, Mercedes, etc.

He also does a MEAN oil change!

Forgive my ignorance (as I have plenty of it) I think I maybe incorrect as to the definition of the word, "tuner"?

Please enlighten . . .

Thank you, Ben. I wasn't sure what info I needed to give. As you know, Akram has several sources for his hardware. I know he works very closely with Todd @ Protomotive. Therefore, I thought simply saying Akram/ Motorwerks would have been sufficient. Apologies for any percieved "attitude". I understand why you would have thought so, since I usually have one!

You need to talk to Akram though Frank ........ i'm concerned. When I was at his shop on Saturday it appears as though someone stole your motor!! Just kidding. Although the fact that it was nowhere to be seen means there are a few cars in H-town that need to watch their back.

I'm thinking I should give them both a hit. What are your thoughts on it?
