I've heard horror stories, but I needed my car tuned so it was Like hmmmm .. lets see.
I've mostly heard about people getting screwed over with high prices.

I was there last week, he has just as many fords as gm's in his shop. but anyway he seemed like a nice guy. I was headed there from west sac and i was running a little late, so i called and he stayed open 15 extra minutes just to fill a couple 10Lb bottles.

Keith tuned my car, & did a decent job, but his customer service is non existent if u own a Ford or if your not spending thousands of dollars on parts with him. Also, if u do plan on getting a Ford tuned there, expect for him to talk sh#t about your car & tell u that "its gonna blow up soon" a few times while he's tuning it...
Dont get me wrong, he knows his sh#t, but he didnt make me feel like he cared much about earning my business, & didnt make me feel like I wanted to go back to him in the future. He also set my appointment for 3:30 PM, which I arrived early @, but had me waiting in the lobby until 6:30 pm while he tuned a Camaro...
If AED wouldve been closer at the time, I wouldve went to them, but they were still tuning in SJ @ the time. That being said, I recommend AED personally because they know there sh#t too, & they have great customer service as well....

both have there pros and cons....
keith is a cock head yes. but he can tune, NOT bashing anyone. but something i was told when i was younger, "you cant replace experience" that has stuck with me, and might apply in this situation.
im sure either will get you a good tune!!

to the OP, do yourself a favor and go to all the shops you're considering. talk to the owners/techs and feel the shop out. much better idea then coming on here and asking for biased opinions....

X2 he was very short with me , & advised I bought shit I know tht I didnt need. Anyway I let him tune my car & hav'nt picked it up yet, It's just a base tune until I actually get my motor fully broken in....
so far I'm @ $1700.00 & some change , Before I brought the car In i was quoted $850.. But I did get some custom radiator
I told him str8 up that I had heard some not so good stuff about him but if he can do his job than were str8...

Why would it cost $1,700 to tune that? Were u missing supporting parts, I.E. Fuel system, Maf, etc?

tune $550
Chip $150
Radiator shroud & fan . $600
stated tht it had to be custom , do the hose calapsing ? lol sold me on tht 1 . know I didnt need it but I was like Screw it !!
$200 to do timing, adjust Tps & go over Vacuum & correct anything incorrect.
& I'd have to look @ bill to figure out the rest.. but the custom radiator thing was the most, he insisted if I didnt do it the hose would colapse & it would fail.. I know I went for the Sale but I was just like whatever it takes to get my car Going..
