scott tuned my car and i have had no problems out of it......both him and matt are great tuners..... wat would be a real good challenge is to have two cars built by two teams...and see who makes the most power and quality of build......

the head to head I saw as entertainment purposes only
anyone worth their salt in the realm knows that WOT / dyno is not the measure of a tuner.. neither of these guys should be glorified or damned based on the outcome.
-gimmie a good cold start up, or a hot restart
-lemme see what happens when i turn on the a/c
-how bout the mileage.. did it go all to hell or improve?
-does it make it down the track?
me personally i'd have just turned up the boost, its way more fun than fooling with tables
..set the a/f to 11 then timing to 15 and turn up the GD boost
now something remotely interesting would be seeing these guys strategies on getting those things to make some torque

I loved playing with idle and startup on my old car. Pieced together standalone with junkyard idle valves.

Nah, tune was done a month ago. I was at Adrenaline practically all day. Wherever you got your information from it wasn't me or Marcus.
I can see how people would think it's unfair. Here's what it comes down to.
-I tuned the car on crome, Matt tuned it on neptune. I couldn't even look at Matt's map if I wanted to , mine was from scratch.
-Marcus' car put down the same power since Matt tuned it, and we havn't even checked for boost leaks since. the car remains untouched.
*the car made 432 on the dyno day, previously it made 422 and 451 (422+451)/2=436.5, and take into account it was hotter out than when matt tuned it.
-I wanted Matt's tune to go first, I got the short end of the stick on that with the heatsoak. Keeping that in mind, I even detuned it before the run.
-My tune was compared to the 'Cadillac' of tunes. The, what, $350-500 Adrenaline Autoworks/Matt shue dyno tune.
for the record. I'm not trying to stir anything up. Just bring my name up, from where adrenaline has attempted to drag it through the mud. I like to think my work speaks for itself.
Matt, thanks for being a good sport.
Pip, I know you were expecting me to make an ass out of myself, thanks for having me.

I definately have no problem with shue because Ive been tuning with him before 99% of you even knew he tuned (years ago). I let scott tune me because I know he knows his stuff seeing that he made a stock supra motor with a custom turbo kit put out 700whp on his own tuning. Reguardless shue is an amazing tuner and so is scott.
We should defiantely do a dyno shoot out, Im ready for high boost

Thats what I'm saying...it would be a lot of fun. Or we could just battle it out at the track.
