Mpsdp90 im based in the North Suburbs, and as you've read in this sh1t storm of a thread, there really isnt any local tuners this side of town.
You can try Protek on dundas street though.
Ive DIY stage 2 on my gen2 for under $1K, so If you are a diy kinda guy and know how to work a pc , youre pretty set. The only new thing to purchase new is a HPFP and the rest from the for sale threads and youre rocking.
They will be the same Sam! If i download a map for CAI, Tmic, DP, HPFP It would be a stage 2 map.... Why wouldnt that be that different for car to car, they run the same VVT, same turbo etc why wouldnt it be simular? if i ran a 3" intake or 3.5 ' tip the VVT table would be the sameQuote:

I have heard stories of ray asking customers for the map they're using initially... None of the American ones do that, they have their own base maps they send out.
If you're all happy with mildly tweaked Cobb OTS maps, fine... I really don't care... But I'm still putting this information up...
LOL!!!!
Had my car tuned by ray and I would recommend him highly not only does he tune but is also there to help you whenever you need it all people do know days is talk about how bad he is all it takes is one rotten egg to spoil it for the others I've called him many times and not once he hasn't picked up
the phone keep doing what your doing ray don't let one clown ruin
it for everyone.
Sam have you had any experience tuning on this platform?Quote:

0 load compensation or protection, major issue for people in cold climatesQuote:

No issues with him as a person, and no doubting his customer serviceQuote:

So what your saying is a base map is not a starting point. So if i start from a OEM map and tuned from there its not my tune? but a base map you can change all parameters yes?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So if i get Rays map and change it i can not call it mine? or if i blow my engine up cuz i changed wgdc AND OTHER PARTS OF MY TUNE to give me more that rays fault cuz he sent me that map?...Quote:

Well I guess we can all leave it that there's been a lot of positive feedback about ray so it's all up to u if u want to get it tuned by him
10/10 from me :)
peace out
Out of curiosity these failures you've heard of is there any real evidence that the cause of the failure is solely down to the tune or just a case of "well ray tuned it so it's obviously his fault"?

No you can't, you can't open a locked map...Quote:
