Get one car, add in some timing and fuel, take out some torque management, bump up shift pressures a bit, rinse and repeat. Where as with a custom tune, we take each individual car out and do driveability tuning, and then take it to the dyno and tweak each and every car to be optimized. Truth be told, you make far less money with custom tuning. It's much easier to sell a programmer and load a file rather than spending the time to do it right. But at the end of the day, I sleep better knowing I did it the right way and not the way that made me the most money.

I like the way you think and, do business. Too many "tooners" out there that see the potential in making money. I'm glad we still have some tuners out there still willing to do the right thing. They exist don't get me wrong but not as much as they should.
