Top quality. Jim is super fussy.CV have a lot of experience.I think its just a case of going for a cruise, chatting to tuners, and finding the one who you are most comfortable with. Customer relations are important these days. If they havent got the time to chat to you, gtfo.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your car a manual or auto? Are you chasing a power figure?Everything has been done here on BA's, usually if you say you are chasing, say 300 at the treads, everyone knows what mods you will need to achieve that.
