Default Best UpRev Tuner in Houston

Jared has tuned my car (many times) in the past, but I won't be able to make it to Austin for my next tune. In your opinion, who is/what shop is the best UpRev licensed tuner in Houston?

Just for reference we are talking about a Vortech G35.

Thoughts/Input?

Thanks guys!

I have been very happy with Secret Services Auto. I have a Vortech 350Z. They have also tuned some of my friend's NA Zs and they are happy as well. Not cheap, but quality work and the Mustang Eddy Current dyno is a good one.

Like you I used to go to Austin and have Jared tune it when I first installed the Vortech.

P&K & I hang out in the same group. I know the same people he does & they all have said positive things about SSA & their tuner. When I get the funds, that's where I'll be heading.

I also vouch for Secret Services. I heard about them through Pedro (P&K) at one of our meets, and another member of our group also had his HR Z tuned there. I was very pleased, although it is a bit pricey.

Went this past Saturday morning to get my car tuned at Jtran, had a wonderful experience. Johnny the owner and tuner is a very friendly knowledgeable guy i would recommend him to anyone wanting UPrev tuning for there VQ.

Winded up making 252hp 220tq on a mustang dyno which usually tend to read lower but the most notable differences now are the amazing drive-ability like throttle response and how quickly and aggressive the car revs plus im back to nearly stock fuel mileage.

my car is a 06 with:
intake
mrev2
5/16th spacer
test pipes, Y pipe, JIC single exhaust
