Guys on here travel states to go to Pitlane etc, almost always great reports.Otherwise, add another 5-8K to your "custom tune" price (to pay for a new engine after a rod explodes through the block after a dodgy tune.......which is why I still haven't tuned as I don't trust anyone in tas to do it) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/77964-custom-tune-price/#findComment-1165005 Share on other sites More sharing options...
