    Has anyone had their cars tuned here? Where should I go to get my up and down pipes installed, get a tune and dyno. I can't decide between Rs Motors or the new shop Devoted Auto. They both will do everything for around 500-$600. Where should I go?

    Do the install yourself with help from friends. Contact Nuke for the tune.

    Don't have a lift or garage to do it myself. Does Nuke have a dyno/shop?

    Nuke road tunes... Don't know much about the new place but RS motors provides great service + they have an AWD DYNO.

    I did my dp and exhaust with a jack and jack stands by myself. It wasn't to hard.

    Can I stop by when you have free time and have you install both pipes for me? I'll pay you $160. Still need a custom tune/dyno after though

    Swing by the Tuesday night meet and suggest that you are looking for help doing said work... Bet some one might help or know someone to put you intouch with.

    Food and beers at Old Chicago.;) I would highly recommend Ronnie at RS Motors if you want a shop with a dyno to tune your car! I've had multiple cars tuned there and they do top notch work! For non-dyno tuned(road tuned), there's no one better than Nuke.

    kind of off topic, but I was talking to my buddy who's a Honda guy and he says to me, "Hey, you should get your car tuned by this buddy of mine, he's pretty good with Subarus." I say, "oh yeah?" Ends up that he's a tuner at Devoted Auto. Just thought it was funny because I had read this thread just a couple of hours before the convo.

    Yeah. He's knows Subaru's pretty well. Always a few Subaru in and outside of his shop. At least I can go there when I have issues without going shop to shop for an answer. Cool guy, just wish he wasn't always so busy.
