sorry O2, sat in a course on Ford body control modules all night and snapped on the PC.
What I should of said was Wester's offers 30-35 days to choose weather or not to keep the PCM, Nelson's was 20-22 last time I looked. thats what I was refering too when I said it was a better warrenty.
just trying to make it fair, you're comparing 2 different things

In the import scene there is a huge debate on "who is the man," when it comes to tuning. Let's take Subaru and their WRX(my previous car). There is TurboXS, Vishnu Tuning, God Speed, Clark in AZ, and more... All make some good numbers in their tunes, all of them have different philosophies in what is ideal.
Vishnu is very conservative in his tuning, TurboXS sems to have made one base map and hasn't touched it since, and other companies are constantly refining their maps for more performance.
I just purchased a Westers tune from Tbyrne Mortorsports. If buying from such a highly regarded vendor on this board is not enough assurance. Then I do not know what is.
Besides just going through the two websites of each company, there are two totally different business models it seems. One is more geared to performance, and the other is more of a well rounded model with doing fleet vehicles and performance mods as well.

I'm running Westers, Nelson wasn't tuning when I was looking. A big plus for me are the free tunes (Minus shipping) since I'm always bolting something on. Maybe When I'm done, I'll give Nelson a shot. We'll see how this next Westers tune it for the cam...
