ok…i have experience with both synapse and redline…
first i’ll talk about Redline…Howard is a smooth talker, thats about it…my car came inches from blowing off his dyno onto the damn street…also kept his foot on the gas when a/f was in the high 12’s with a turbo’d supra around 700hp…
Now Synapse…i love them plain and simple…whenever i need something all i have to do is call. i’ll have a spot on the dyno in the next day or 2…morgan has been tuning my car for over 2 years now without 1 problem…he has fine tuned the ems and he has also started from the beginning. he has tuned it from around 550 rwhp to my newest of 801 rwhp and ran a 10.1 @144 at the drag strip.
save your money bud did the same thing to my brothers 00 max and didnt do anything but fuck it up and if ya have a lean code look at 02 sensors as new headers will waste em and quick cause of the shit they put in em for shipping not talkin out of my ass just from experiance and ya dont need a tune for it the stock comp will handle it trust me we dynoed my brothers and it was fine with a full exhaust headers cat delete and cat back …
Well if I wasn’t getting an 00VI I probably would have left it cause at that point my code was pending and not throwin a CEL. Passed inspections.
But since I’m getting an 00VI and needed to get something like an VAFC and got one…might as well tune it to the best settings possible. The VAFC is directly related to having an 00VI.
Money isn’t an issue…:). I’m also kinda curious to see what the car makes no anyway.
