What's your availability looking like for next week? I know its kinda last minute, but I think I made it within the 7-14 day window. Lol.

Replied on Sat.

 

hey nate i had talked to you a few weeks ago at firestone about possibly getting just a base map from ya so as to make my car drivable until i can set up a tune from ya. Is that still possible??

 

Shoot me a PM or email me with details, again. Depending on setup, I can send you an email with a prepped basemap.

 

hey do you have any time next week for a tune? i am open for any time during the day

 

Nope, I'm currently booked out solid until early July. As I've got a full time job, daytime during the work week is not good for me. Shoot me a PM, and we'll go from there.

Thanks!

Still fairly busy guys, thanks to everyone who's keeping me that way. If you're looking for a tune, please expect having to schedule a few weeks out, still. Email or PM is still the best way to contact me.

Thanks!

 

Another +1 for Bullinkle tunes! Great guy and a great tune. Love the torque Nate!!! Thanks again.

 

this is exactly what i was looking for! my walloftvs tune is getting to be a little dated with recent mods and my stock turbo finally starting to give. i'll be pickin up a new turbo soon (which one, yet to be decided), and injectors. will my stock 02 fuel pump hold up to the increased airflow? please shoot me a pm if you have a minute to chat. hoping to tune mid-late fall before it gets too cold.

Matt - Please just shoot me a PM or email with a list of your mods and your install timeline, or even if you just want some advice regarding mods/turbo. We'll chat and get something on the schedule.

Thanks!

 

...and another one! Had my stg2+bcs tuned a month or so ago, its like a new car!

 

Thanks for all the nice words, guys.

For those of you wondering about winter tunes, the weather does not pose any problems, as long as the roads are clean and not slippery. Winter tires are recommended, however.

 

Here's another one for Nate. He Did a Stg2 tune+bcs. Great tune car pulls harder then ever lots of TQ.

 

So... hopefully not a completely stupid question, but I am very new to modding and tuning. Is it worth tuning a new car? I am looking at a 2011 WRX possible purchase, but didn't know what "post-purchase" expenses I should expect to really get it moving.

 

definitely worth it. The stock tune one those are horrible

Hey,
I have stage 2 flashed on my ECU, I went to Fargo to have it reflashed but we decided that we don't want to reflash, but im still having weird starts some mornings, I have to hold it over for at least 10 seconds then it will start and run fine. Do you have any suggestions?

 

Hi Alex, if the car's fueling system is otherwise stock, that sounds like a mechanical issue. I would recommend posting in the mods/maintenance section of this forum for assistance. Be sure to include all the appropriate information about your car (mods/model year/etc).

Bullwinkle, does your software give off an approximate whp and wtq? I have a 2004 Sti and want to go stage 2 soon. Also, would we install the tbe here and then drive down like a grandma until you can tune or would we just bring the dp and throw it on at your place? I may be interested in a tune coming up...

 

has anybody used the email tuning yet? just wondering how it worked out for you, I don't make it to MSP area that often. Not looking for crazy power just a better tune vs COBB Stg 2

 

Anybody? Did you install the dp and then go get it tuned, or go and install and tune it with him?

 

Yes, you will get approximate numbers at the end of your tune, although I don't typically take a baseline. And yes, you can install those parts and then drive nicely to get the tune.

FYI to everyone as well, I will be out of the country for the rest of June. Feel free to PM or email me, but I will have limited email and web access, so you may not get a response until early July. Hope everyone has a great summer.

 

Hi everyone, I'm sure many of you have noticed that I've trended down activity on this board, and been turning away tunes more and more over the past six months.

I'd like to officially announce that I am no longer providing tuning services. It's been a good run, but life moves on.

If you were considering coming to me for a tune, I would recommend N&F Performance.

 

too bad

 

I'm sad to hear that you're not going to continue your service. You have contributed to the OS community and MNSubaru also. Thanks to you, many cars are running better than ever. I hope those that you have tuned and helped, can come in and chime in on the great work you've done. From the NF crew, thank you.

PS...Let's race

 

Nate, never had a pleasure to tune with you but heard a lot of good stuff from other members.

 

Sorry to hear you are giving up on tuning but I am sure you have your reasons. My Bullwinkle tune is still going strong!
