Just want to give my .02 on Alvin:

Alvin's rep swings from real bad to real good. And it's not that he is bad tuning cars, but he is slow responding to people and seems to take it real personal if you question his tune! He tuned my car after 3 others tried and gave up, Some returned my money, but not all, I had a tuner ( that I won't mention, some know the guy!) and he took me for allot of money and all my other chips/hardware! /Rant

Alvin did my tune via mail, I had new chips and burner and he sends me the file. His first tune was off a bit, rich top end and slight stumble off idle. I data logged the car and sent him the file and he made the changes and after that the car was flawless!

My tune was a bit complicated: stroker motor, forced induction, 2-bar map, custom cam. Alvin was the only one to get the tune right. I couldn't be happier, but I have friends with 93's as well who don't share my feelings.
