Nope their in Wolfforth.


Well I'll tell you how it goes when I get mine back next week. Figured for $200 its worth a shot. The guys who have gone to them seem like they like it. So far Jason is a very nice guy to deal with, very cordious.

I think you have the same issue that I do. I'd like to get a tune for my truck, but I will have other modifications to come later. I could wait until I was finished doing my mods, but i'm really curious about the custom tunes and what they can do for power, fuel economy, etc.

Retunes are free for the first year and then $75 for another years worth of tunes.

Sorry it took so long to get back. Had to wait also for the learn period and there definatly is one. At first it didn't feel all that different but after about 200-300 miles, she woke up
This thing pulls so much harder now its great, having a hard time keeping this dam peg-leg from spinning
One nice thing now is when I used to go up a steep hill it used to downshift everytime, used to bug the hell out of me. Now it just stays in gear and cruises right up them with no problem. To think I was almost gonna go back to smaller tires cause these slowed me down alot but not now.

This is by far the best $200 bucks I have ever spent!

Thanks Jason.

Is the 200 a promo deal, or is that the price they charge all the time?
