Alternative to PTF?

I just checked PTF's website for a custom Protune and it looks like they're on hold until they finish up their BMW F rollout. Not sure how long this might last but in the meantime does anyone have good experience with any other shops that do customs Cobb e-tuning?

I'm having injectors installed right now and will need an E85 map but more importantly from a timing perspective, a new pump map for the bigger injectors so I can safely get the car rolling.

Thanks all!

Dzenno is a great tuner and I had him as my tuner previously. They are definitely super swamped at the moment and as far as I know they aren't taking in any new customers. I switched over to Sam (SamboTT@ByDesign) because I needed an E85 map ASAP and he is on literally 24/7. We are still working out some bugs on my car but the communication with Sam has been beyond outstanding! He has lots of customers, but I literally feel I am the only one. Never had this type of support from a tuner!!

I want to reiterate that PTF (Dzenno) is a great tuner and he has provided lots to the Porsche community. In my case I needed the E85 map fast and Sam was there.

Jamie,

Who does the physical installs on your 997TT, I know you bought the car already pretty done up from Matt?

I do all the installs/work on my car. Cosmetically the car was in great shape, mechanically it needed work, but I found out afterwards. Only parts left over from when I bought it, are the 2.5 Sachs, Werks1 plenum, GT3 TB. But am thinking of changing over to IPD plenum, still keeping the GT3 TB. Everything else has been changed (parts in sig). I'll eventually do a build thread once I have everything buttoned up.

Thanks for the chat today Sam!
Completely forgot you do custom tunes and live next door to Cobb.

Let's get this candle lit!

Sam can definitely help. Mitch is there in a pinch. Rob Harper is still around but not a forum sponsor anymore since he's a tuner to the Middle East sheik dudes these days.
