Default Tuners

Are there any good tuners for the A6 in the PNW? Which hardware/software are they using, HP or Diablo? Anyone in the Spokane area or east of the mountains?

I would say Tom Wong, but you are a long ways away. You may have to drive over the mountians to find a reputable tuner.

Tom's the best in the region. From the old cars to the new cars, he knows what it takes to bring out the performance in your car.

I'm not sure if Tom would do a mail order. There is others though if you look in the tune section of the Forum. But to do it right, you will need the software that they are using so you can do a scan and have them tweak it. I don't think Tom has HP Tuner, but he could use mine to do your car with. You would just have to pay for the extra credits to do your car. Send him a PM and see what he says. He will probably prefer you to put it on his Dyno though. But it never hurts to ask.

I certainly agree with you there. Drove back from Vancouver yesterday with my new AR headers, Corey's ls2portworks ported TB & intake....already had the Halltech Killer Bee. Very impressive results, almost 500 rear wheel hp on Tom's Mustang Dyno. Would post the dyno sheet but seems convoluted....

More importantly (to me) is the sound of the car now (unleashing the dogs of hell comes to mind)...and Tom's attention to detail. He took the time to do it right, then checked and tweaked as required. I trust VERY few people with my car and highly recommend Tom.
