So some of you may know I always used to get my cars tuned by billy. Well after the first time he tuned my 03 cobra it was fine then it started bogging like it wasnt getting enough fuel, so I text him telling him im having an issue with the tune. So he told me no problem bring it back this weekend(1 month ago), so I brought it and he text me saying that my return line was too small and my fuel pump is cutting out. I told him ok ill pick it up and replace everything and he said no its cool ill do it for free just give me the money for the parts. I paypaled him 600 for the fuel pump and I wanted new fuel rails(fore). So after 2 weeks I called him and he said hes waiting for the fittings. then last week he text me saying it will be ready tuesday for tuning, so I bought the gas he needed and he made an excuse that the fittings were wrong. He then said that hes waiting for a friend of mine to bring him the fittings, I called him and he said he sold billy the fuel rails for 100 so he kept 200, and saturday it was supposed to be tuned and he said its too much fuel and it wont run. I told him ill pick it up and finish it myself and he said no its koo sunday ill tune it and ill even smog it for free and deliver it to san jose tuesday. yesterday I called him and he said its not done so I told him fuck you im on my was to pick it up, and at 10pm I got to modesto and picked it up and took it to aop in fresno. Nate is a very cool guy, he met me at the shop at 2am!!! And today he said that the fuel pump isnt the a1000 and he hooked up the regulator wrong after I had it on right. DO NOT USE VENDICATED TUNING HES A THIEF AND CANT KEEP HIS WORD!!!!!

I have stories about vindicated, billy and his cronies that run along the same lines as yours. I'm just glad I never sent my ride there.
