Term2 @ james off css.net are pretty reputable hptuners. Heard bad things about ravens but I've never used their services personally.

Term. And James shouldn't even be in the same sentence. I had to separate it there just to make a point.

James is.... well.... lets just say, not very good. He'll convince you that he's god's gift to tuning and cars in general, but he's far from it. I've seen some ugly tunes come from him, as I'm sure other tuners have as well.

im tuned by james and will recommend him to anyone, been to a few different dyno days and i had the tuners there take a look at my tune because of the stories i'd heard, and they were actually surprised how good it was. been running his tune for almost 30,000 miles and havent had a single tune related issue aside from it being difficult to not go fast... lolololol

Seems to be more LNF that LSJ that I see problems with when it comes to him, still wouldn't ever consider him at all though.

He knew less about the LSJ than the LNF so I would be even more scared, lol.

My motor popped due to being tuned by James a couple years back. If I only knew then what I know now. I could show you a timing table he ran in my car that would make you **** your pants lol. Maybe he's changed his tuning ways I don't know.
