no offense Rob, but Cam has had some major f-ups while learning to tune imports. do yourself a favor and make sure your not his first 370z to play with. he's a good guy but i'd hate to hear he had a 'whoopsie' with your car and blew something. personally he's a little to cocky for me to trust him with my car. but if i look at my car wrong it might throw a rod just to spite me too.
if you really want the absolute best tuning shop in alberta, look up tunerworks in calgary. they do porshe, audi, MB, AM, lotus, etc all the way down to the 'common' cars like ours. they did a cobb map for one of my coworkers STI and pulled 50+hp out of the stock motor. however they do require a first-born child as collateral while they work on your car. probably worth it, maybe not.

well tunerworks is the only other place to tune a 370z. I'm sure neither of them have done one yet. I'll check them out and see what they have to offer...but i still want more opinions on Cam's work. Probably wont be until the spring/summer that im going to tune the car. Everything is going towards the bike. Next month im buying a PCIII. I can download maps off of PC's website that were made for my mods but its just a canned map just to get the thing running smoother. I'll have to go to Echo Work...they have a dynojet and can dyno tune me.

none taken

I have definately heard of problems that people have had because of him, but for every problem there's like a hundred good stories so I don't know what to believe. You're right though about making sure you're not his first 370z. That would make me a little nevous. Its not like he'd be going into it blind, but you just never know how these new cars would react.

haha that's funny.

I'm running continentals (sp?) right now. They came with the rims when I got them last year. They're not bad, but I wouldn't pick them if I had the choice.

I've heard good things. You probably can't go wrong with those ones.

I no longer have the Balt, saldy had to give her back to GM after I couldnt afford the lease payments last year Freaking economy bit me hard when I lost my job at UPS then had a of a girlfriend in Camrose screw me over so its been the ******..

I have seen Rob recently and a number of Cobalts, nice to see Jordan is trying to keep this thread alive as well, good on you J man.. Myself I am now just driving a 94 Nissan Sentra, yes I went to the dark side lol. But now that I'm working again plan on saving up for something a little more fun!! Anyways I just wanted to drop a line and say hello.. I didnt even have to sign in as I was still saved so go figure lol..

If you see a little white 4 dr Nissan Sentra hauling ass that will be me, its only a 1.6L but I drive it like, well you know .. laters
