DB performance in Rogers does it, you will be looking at about 500$ for the hardware/tune/dyno time and thats not even dialing in your cam gears, which is just obsurd for that kind of money, they told me it would prob be an additional 2 hours of dyno time to dial in my cams, at 125$ an hr, so for me to get tuned would have been pushing 700+ easy, they told me 2 hours just to make a new fuel map:roll:

Massive in chicago area has a lot more experience with the focus, not sure what their rates are, I think someone on FJ said they we 75$/hr for tuning.

Oh, what kind of work do you got done? Being you are in green bay, I'd check massive speed systems for sure.

massive speed doesnt have a dyno, and the shop they source to charges like 150 an hour, they also dont tune sct, it should take about an hour to tune camgears, 125 is pretty standard, i have an xcal already, id just neew an updated file, do you have a number for this place or a website.

DB told me 2 hours for AFR and 175 for the file. First 2 hours are 150$ after that its 125$.

Exactly why I didn't get my car tuned. Those prices where also with me providing my own xcal2. 700$ to get tuned and pick up maybe 10-12whp? Na, I'll pass. But now I got this tbird I am going to slowly put the focus back to stock. The ported head I got, the prev owner made 205whp with a JRSC :shock:

You should buy it, it needs to be gone thru to make sure its all good, I was going to have it gone thru, the prev owner claims a few of the exhaust valves might be bent, valves are about 40$ a pop, ferra super alloy valve train with titanium springs/retainers 8) Springs are good for 12.5mm lift.

Wrong. Massive Speed Systems doesn't have a dyno or tune but they have a lil shop where they can bring you call Logan Motorsports. Besides this last time I've gotten all my tuning done through them and seeing as how the place in Roger's has F%$#%& outrageous prices I'll prob end up driving out there to get it tuned again. It's about a 6 hour drive to Massive and another hour to the tuner. If anyone wants to go down there let me know cause I gotta get mine tuned again.
I'm not the MN ZX3 w/ Cali plates anymore.
