Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

Yes, either way. I'm sure that AED's tunes aren't far off from his email tunes since he still uses datalogging on both to work out any quirks. Just doesn't have the car in front of him. But I think it still shows Sean is a great tuner as well.

sean @ true street, not to be confused with shaun @aed.
and no, they have had problems with both procharged cars. Sayle went to dallas mustang to get tuned after install.
I love true street and I Think they are great, i just wouldnt get tuned if you have forced induction. NA cars are fine.

I ain't mad, bro lol. But wildly debatable.
Before proper MAF's came about for tuning these cars beyond a certain sample area, tuners would "trick" the computer to do what they commanded. It was simply the way of things. Now that tuners have access to proper MAF's, we choose to tune through the MAF (no smoke & mirrors). David has gone this route and we hoped that Sayle would as well. Davids had nothing to do with tuning.
Sayle was advised to go with a MAF that better supported his cars needs. But everyone makes their own choices given what information they are given. Sayle chose to go a route that does not involve a MAF change and purchased injectors through DM when, in fact, the car is still out of MAF. We tune FI cars that far exceed 600wp day in and day out. Our tuning capabilities are not to be confused with a customers free choice.
Not to detract anything from Sayle! He's a stand up dude, we go drinking together, and was even at the shop today! He made the decision he felt most comfortable with given the information and this has affected our relationship none whatsoever!

Absolutely! There will always be preferences in anything and everything. But folks need facts to aid in their opinions/decision. And that's what we're here for. I will always offer the truth. But...the decision is ultimately in the customer/purchasers hands....and everyone will have their preference.

We put a base tune in Sayle car and stated with full throttle pulls (45 mins total time before we ran out of maf). His car ran out of MAF and was advised at that time what was need to correct the problem so we could continue the tune. He decided to go another way and there is no hard feelings. He was told at Dallas mustangs he was out of MAF there too....
Also Keep in mind we have 4 pro-charged cars here and 3 twin turbo cars right now for tuning. So to say we don't do forced inductions is just silly to say......
please have facts correct before saying what our capabilities are...... but glad you like us

oh ok, i was told differently by sayle that dallas mustang could tune with his oem MAF, i also was told that procharger instructed him to get a second opinion because their kit doesn't require it.

Yes, DM can tune using the oem MAF same as us. But it's not what we consider to be the right way now that MAF's are available and carry the proper data. I believe the MAF's are good through 1,000+wp. It's an awesome addition outside of necessity.
Prochargers kit doesn't require a MAF if.... if the car does not exceed roughly 550 wp. But just like David's, the kit's making more. Especially after bolt-on's. lol

We could do the same "trick" and sayle was explained this in a 20min conversation. Sayle understood that we as a shop disagreed with this trick and he did not want to purchase the new maf so he went to another tuner.....
