Try RT Tuning... seems like many for MRC customers ended up there. They have a pretty good presence on here as well.

VTR is great but he does not use the two most commonly used engine managements. (Uprev/Haltech)
This was a major factor for me personally. I have had nothing but great experiences with Vinny otherwise.

This is true, however just because those ems are the most commonly used does not mean there are the best out there! Also how do u like that trailblazer? Thinking of getting the same truck!

I agree. Vinny performs magic with ANY ems he uses. Even split second.

The SS is a beast. Definitely holds me over in the winter months when the Z is away. I use mine as a stock daily driver but its quick enough to keep up with most of the poorly driven 350zs around here.

Trailblazer is no joke love everything about the truck but can't get past the gas mileage lol but I'm sure its tons of fun!!!! As far as vinny I really wanted to try pro efi or haltech too but since I went with hydra I have no complainants he explained and took the time to show me everything about the hydra... I'm happy with it good luck with whichever ems you choose they are all pretty good.. And yes vinny is nasty on a ss box!!!
