What can you guys tell me about Unique Tuning?
 

I got a buddy that lives in my apartment complex that said he's going to Unique Tuning to have his Roush Mustang tuned by Mike. I was just wondering if any of you guys know anything about him and his shop. I have yet to find a new tuner and am trying to research anyone in this area. Here's his website...

Who do you use as your current tuner?

bizzybones can give you alot of information on Mike. lol

I have met the guy and he seems to be very knowledgeable.

I don't have one. I got a good tune done right before I left VA, but now that I'll be installing Nitrous I'll need to get a tune for that. Plus I want to transfer my tune from my SCT chip to an XCal 2.

I know Mike pretty well...His is a kind of new buisness. They just got the new dyno in their shop...

He is a sponsor of one of our classes at the monthly Hooter's shows. I talked to him last Saturday.
He has had some problems on the past with an ex-partner that was a crook....Mike has done his best to work thru a bad start.....His shop is very busy, and I have talked to a few people that have used him for tunes, and, seems like the outcomes are good.

Mike told me he is doing a lot of Lightning tunes....

Hope this helps...

Steve

Thanks for the info. I'll have to give him a call and see what he's like. His shop is only 40 minutes from me so I might drive down there and check it out...

As much as you have invested in your truck, I would stick with one of the more reputable Lightning tuners... Just my thoughts on it. There is one built motor (JDM) truck here in Charleston, and there are 2 more local guys who just picked up JDM motors this week and will have them up and running soon. We should have three 10 second trucks by this fall.

If you want to drive to a reputable tuner nearby, try AVT (Arthur Todd) who built Ronnie and Woody's trucks. The only thing is that he's about 3 hours away from you.

Another suggestion is let JDM do a mail order setup and go to a dyno here in Charleston (or wherever is close) and check your #'s and A/F. Lightning Mike is running their tunes in his truck with success.

What ever happened to us talking to JDM to see if he would be willing to gome down when everyone gets there stuff up and running?

Is AVT in Myrtle Beach?

Conway, which is near Myrtle Beach. I will pm you.

He's in Conway up by Myrtle Beach here is his info:

Hope I didnt step on any toes. I saw you said you were going to pm spence, but I was typing a reply and getting the info when you replied.

Thanks fellas. I'm probably going to suck up the drive and go see Arthur. Mike emailed me back and told me that he doesn't use SCT software... Even though the SCT logo is on the back of his business cards. All he does is Predator's and Diablos. I like SCT too much.

Does AVT have a website?

No. He's a good ole country guy. His phone is the best means of contact.

Cool. Thanks.

Arthur is a great paint and body guy as well. He painted my mustang. That's Arthur on the right.

I think that's what Arthur is. 95% paint body & 5% tuner. From the time I spent at his shop it looked like he did both well. He certainly loves Mustangs from looking at the field behind his shop. Looks like he did a fantastic job on your car.

great paint job :bigthumb:
