Ive talked to him late at night, ordered a license and had it within a few mintues... but it was just luck of the draw..
He is pretty cool, and i refer everyone to him.

Yep same here I knew absolutely nothing about tuning when I met Justin and my dumb *** still knows nothing about it. He trys to teach me but its just too much for me to learn I guess.

Awesome to hear you love your tune.

How much did the ECM and TCM cost?
They were $175 from a local junkyard. I just walked in with the part numbers and asked if they had any in stock and they did. Justin updated the operating systems and we were good to go.

Yep...Justin's a great guy.
I'm in Oz so he won't be tuning my Burb for me but he has given me plenty of tips.
I'm in fairly regular contact with him via email. ALWAYS answers my questions...ALWAYS helpful.

I believe the ECM came out of a Impala.
