Recommened Tuners in Socal

TheJumpOff · 05-09-2010, 08:26 PM

I've been reading through a lot of forums on tuner histories in SoCal but it seems there are only 3-4 people who actually respond to those threads. I'd like to know which VQ tuners are recommended for FI/NA in SoCal.

It would help if you could state experiences you've had with them in the past to give other members a better sense of direction when choosing a tuner.

The few that come to mind are Sam@GTM, Shawn Church@Church Auto, & Tadashi @Technosquare but I'm limited on what I can say since I have had no experience with either, but I will state that I have not read anything negative about any of the mentioned shops.

Anyone else care to chime in?

We'd be happy to help with your build.. we have a full stop service bay in addition to all of the products we develop and manufacture in-house, in addition to tuning services via UpRev.

We've been a little backed up with tuning due to our 3.7L supercharger being launched, but we'll be back in the swing of doing NA cars here soon.

Wasn't aware that you tune Josh. Out of curiosity, are you guys an authorized Uprev pro-tuner and how long has your tuner been doing VQ's? Also, do you guys have your standard tuning rates anywhere?

We are an authorized UpRev tuner, and are using UpRev for our supercharger, we've worked directly with the UpRev creators extensively on that project, and have done quite a bit with NA motors.

Beyond that our Service Manager and R&D Manager have been tuning Nissan's for a considerable amount of time, from 300ZX's, 350Z's and everything in between. We in-house tuned for our superchargers on the 350Z, Frontier, Titan.. and as I mentioned most recently the 370Z supercharger.

We are working on some UpRev tuning packages that haven't been finalized just yet, as I mentioned things have been a bit focused towards the supercharger, so we can get that launched, but those will be available soon.

Hey Josh,
could you pm me a price for a tune? I have F.I. CBE, and I have been lurking in the supercharger threads... trying to talk myself out of it. In any case I could probably use a tune whilst I mull over the supercharger idea. Thanks in advance!

Specialty Z did a bang-up job on mine... they (as the name says) only do Zs, so they know their business.
