Any recommendations on a good local tuner/chip burner for TBI?

Figured my first stop should be here in the Alberta Thread!


Thanks,
Drue
I don't know about Calgary tuners, but Richter Performance Modifications in Lethbridge is pretty damn good, if you travel south at all let me know and i can hook you up with colin's number, best $400 i ever spent

Looks good man! Progress is progress no matter how little or slow, hell I was getting compliments on mine this weekend and it's just debadged, tinted, chrome deleted and 3/5 drop on stock wheels/tires lol. it's the little things that make the most difference usually, look forward to seeing your build come along!

Hoping to order a trutrac soon, and after the snow finishes up i'll add shackles and adjust the struts to 4/6 and start the turbo process!














Anyone else got any updates on their units?
