Terminator owners please step in
I'm in need of a new tune and I'm looking for a local dyno tune. Anyone have any experiences with some of the local tuners. I currently have amazon tuning and well they basically suck. So if anyone has any experiences good or bad please let me know. If your not comfortable posting here please PM me. I just want to make a informed decision. Mods are 2.8 upper, ported eaton, plenum and throttle body. 80lb injectors, MAFia, intake, exhaust, KB BAP with wire upgrade pretty basic stuff. Thanks in advance. Sorry if I posted in the wrong area

I know Foofinator just had his done by True Street. They are a sponsor on here. A lot of the guys here use them, I will be dropping my fox off there next week as well.

We have done a TON of terminators. Actually have two at the shop now that I am building and will be soon hitting the dyno. Both are built motors, complete fuel systems with kb blowers.

TS is a great option. They do good work. Not sure what they charge. I would call and talk to Tim.

TS is awesome BUT I have a feeling your issues are mechanical rather than a tune issue. You need to sort out the issues before adding another variable to the problems to troubleshoot otherwise you are going to be just chasing your tail. Trust me, I've been down that road before and it's not fun!

What makes you think there's something wrong with the car? I'm 99% sure the its the tune. The car runs fine now I drive it almost daily. It's just didn't make the power like It should have.

From reading your thread with the information you have provided and also previous experience with a very similar situation. I could very well be wrong and it could be solely the tune especially considering where the tune came from. One thing is certain, something isn't adding up. I hope you get it worked out.

Well I'm hoping for the best I'm positive it's the tune, but I've been wrong before. Thanks!
