dude you're basically getting the same set of responses here... FT, FP, or PF are your best options. There's some guys in the charlotte area that I know that tune utecs all the time on WRX's but I'm not gonna even pretend that that means they can give you as good of a tune on your Z as someone who speciallizes in them.

Wait, there's one other option... I've been wanting to teach myself how to tune Z's from the ground up but scared to try on my car. So if you wanna drive to charlotte I'll give it a go

and for what its worth Jeremy at performance factory tuned my car in orlando with temps at about 85 degrees or so and when I got back to nc the temperature was 35 that night and like 25 the next morning i think. Everything was still dead on. A/F's were good and there didn't seem to be any knock issues or any timing being pulled.

yeah, i somewhat agree, like a sign or something, however PF pretty much lost my business by a smartass comment Jeremy made in another thread of mine. plus theres a guy in town with a G35 w/ a vortech that didnt even make it all the way home before his CEL came on
