    Hey guys, I am wondering if a person by the name of Mike Shimon is on here. I have heard that this person is really good with the b5.

    That's not a bad idea it's only a 3 hour drive for me but I think I am going to deal with Blake at et spec.

    meh. Josh tweaked it and made 395 ft/lbs torque to the wheels on my F21 setup, on a 98 degree July afternoon! Seriously, consider reaching out to them first

    Blake is tuning my car, him and Daz worked together as partners and their tuning skills are second to none. I don't think you can go wrong either way.

    I think im going to stick with Blake for the moment, picking someone to tune has been one of the most indecisive things I've done to the car yet. Although each person who tunes has their special set of skills, I feel as though all of them have something great to bring to the table. Thanks to everyone who replied but I think Blake is the guy that will tend to what I want in the car at this time.

    blake is great, but being on a dyno has its own perks as well. at the end of the day as long as your hardware is good, i dont think any of these guys will disappoint.
