Hey guys,
I am about to get my Z shipped to Urbana, Illinois and I was wondering if anyone knew of any reputable shops around this region. The Z was in Maryland before, so I always went to AAMS and FunctionTuned.
any suggestions are appreciated.
thanks

I don't know how close it is, but AMS is there and although they aren't known in the Z/G community, they are huge in the DSM/Evo community and Martin in one of the best tuners around, regardless of platform. People on EvoM.net would fly him all over the country to tune their cars. Might be worth checking into.

There are a couple shops in Chicago which have TONS of experience on the Z and G,

Genesis Racing and Development
&
Sound Performance

Check them out on the local car club; www.chicagoZ.com

 

www.grdperformance.com Zivman will recommend them any day of the week, he's had alot done with them in the past he's also on here if you want to talk to him

 

NONE around here....welcome to the area though (btw....PLEASE don't take your car to any "performance" shops around here...they work on alot of civics and ALOT of neons)

 

AMS will not tune Z's... I already inquired about that one... but they do recommend a shop, and anything AMS recommends, I would tend to follow as a good idea. I forget which one it was though...

 

anyone with experience with sound performance? looking for a place to tune UTEC once i get one.

 

I know GRD does the UTEC. You might want to call them up first. THey have this new tune/flash that can hold up too 5 different MAPS and you are able to change it thru your cruise control buttons. Give Irfan a call he can give you more info on it.

 

go to Hal and Injected Performance down in Lexington, KY. I made the drive, and it was worth every penny. Also, If you don't have the time to make the drive...i'm pretty sure they will come pick your car up and trailer it back down for you...

 

isn't the tuner program you are talking about (djpinoy) the Cobb tuner? I really like that as well and have heard it works well for those of us NA forever guys
