Could anybody that has a turbo car recommend a good tuner around the Nor Cal area. Also has anyone ever been to RET to get their car tuned? If so how was the entire experience?

If you are planning on running the stock computer setup then I would use RPM or Mike Murillo but if you get a FAST standalone system then AED will do it

I got tuned at ret. Overall good experience at the shop and great tune but trying to get a hold of Greg after you get back up here is damn near impossible.

Thanks for the info guys. Ive heard a lot of good things about RPM, but wanted to see if there were others around. Ive also been talking with mike murillos wife about a tune but the drive to texas is going to be a killer which is why I wanted something a little closer. RET was ideal as well but just worried about communication after the tune which is what a lot of people say is the nightmare part of it.

I thought Mike Murillo was going to start coming to California to do some tuning?

I got my tune at RET. Good experience and my tune works great. Only bad thing is the 8hr round trip for me. AED didn't want to tune my car they stated it was to complicated.

RPM Speed Center is a good place for tuning turbo setups. Luis really knows his stuff. Seen his builds and how his cars run personally and they have all done very and made great power with great drivability
