I have their top of the line A6 build. Havent had any issues since the build. Century was a good experience. Communicated well and you could tell they knew their stuff.

Their WOT shift points were a little off for me but every car will need some track tuning I would think.

Granted, I'm a little biased but the one they built for me back in February of 2012 only just started acting up a few weeks ago.

I lost track of the exact number of low 10 second passes I made with it (usually between 10.0xx and 10.2xx depending on the weather) but it was pretty close to 500 in total.

What Mike Farris said about the shift points is true in that the only place to track tune the car is actually at the track. You can get fairly close by guessing but several different factors like tire size and brand, converter stall speed and brand, gears, launch RPM, cam and overall engine HP/TQ all end up being contributing factors to where they should be set to.

I probably don't make as much as most guys (400RWHP) but mine has been great. I had mine rebuilt back in June or July of 2011 and made several low 11/high 10 second passes without a problem. I'd wouldn't hesitate to go back to them at all.

750 miles on first one and 3500 or so on second.. The tune was the major issue on the first.. This was in a 2013 GMC SLT CC Z71 5.3L made 500 rwhp on 8 psi and I normally ran 12 psi or so.. That was on 22's and 33" toyo's..
