CMS Experience
I was at CMS this morning to have ARH. Hi flows installed. Thanks to Mike, Mike, & Ryne!! While I was waiting another cust. came in with a trans [auto] problem not shifting properly. He evidently had spent a lot of $$ with another tuner and his car had been there [other tuner] for a couple months And kept getting the run around. I think it is a GTO [not sure LS 1 ] built up for drag. Anyway Mike unloaded his tune for Ryne and within 5 minutes Ryne Had the answer! He went out to the car and did what he does with the computer and had the cust take a drive. Came back and said it was shifting right!! So Ryne was going to tune it for him today. These guys know their stuff!! Also while my car was on the rack Mike noticed one of my sway bushings was popping out and fixed it and greased them for me for no charge!! CMS. is the BEST! P.S. My car still sounds good and might even have picked up a little low-end TQ. over the catless. Hard to tell in the rain. Thanks again guys!

Ryne took over tuning both my cars, and I've not looked back since...
He's got a real talent for getting them dead nuts!

Another vote for Ryne and the guys at CMS. They tuned my cammed CTS-V, and will hopefully be doing a cam swap on my Z in the near future.
It says a lot when people outside of the local demographic recommend Ryne's cams and tuning ability. Keep up the good work guys.

I drove out from Irvine area to CMS after reading about them on here. Ryne did a Intake/Longtubes/Tune on my 08 C6 a few years back and I couldn't be any happier. Sold the C6 for a Z and I ended up having Ryne do a tune on my 06 Z almost a year ago without any hiccups except for a lot more tire spin

Good to hear these things about a repair shop. I hate the dealerships. I may have to pay you a visit ryne, I've got an 04 Z16 Z06 and the rear diff seems to be leaking, car has 5800 miles on it.

Thanks, I was just talking to someone yesterday that hopefully its just an overfill issue. Everything is like new on the car because it has such low miles on it. It usually leaks after a drive when the fluid is warm. When the car sits it usually does not leak.

Make sure first that the diff. was not over filled. Sprited runs will cause the gear oil to come out of the vent located on top. Drain and refill to proper level - clean / wipe diff. down, drive and watch for leaks.
