Thanks,
Ben

Charlie does more than just tuning. You should see what he is doing to my 98. He also tuned my z and it ran real hard.

Kushan's the man down in SD. Very knowledgeable and a straight shooter.

I also had the four corner balance beside the tune.

Hey Ben.

Kushan at Excelsior can dial in your ride.
He is very capable.
I have used him for years. But he has a back log as I understand.
You need to get on his schedule.

Hey, I am in Carlsbad as well.
