I fell out with my previous tuner mainly due to frustration over the time it took him to complete work. There were no real issues over his work (had a stonking prerforming car with a t34, but regretably wanted more power), although I did not like the lag associated with the T61.
Both the T34 and T61 variants were mapped by none other than Ahmed Bayjoo! The latest tuner is also well known and will shock a few on here, but I am hoping for some sound advice of what to do?
I have learnt the hard way that if you find a good tuner, stick with him. If he is good, then things will take time due to high demand.

I am after advice what to do at the moment? But hopefully everything I am writing here can clearly be seen as being factual.
As can be seen from the manifolds, work carried out to my car would probably have been beter from a hobbyist. When it was pointed out there were problems and some fundamental design flaws with the intake manifold, they insist there are no problems. THese results should not have come out from a professional. Here are some flow tests results I had done which shop just how bad the IM is;
The 'copy' refered to here is the above manifold.
You judge for yourself, but the company certainly supposedly has a good reputation. The work carried out cost Ł8000 and the car's performance is absolutely pants. I have been complaining but banging head against brick wall would be less painful.

but you not naming any names isnt helping anyone.. someone else could go to the tuner and be in the same boat as you. So isnt it best to let people know who it is?
I think its safe to safe the tuner isnt going to replace the parts and as you have gone elsewere why would you keep the name quiet anyway. I think i know who it is anyway but thats not the point.

why would it get the forum into difficulties? surely a members opinion isnt a reflection of the site? and if it is indeed as shoddy as you say then why should it be hushed up to save the companys good name that isnt deserved in the first place?

Is there any way of getting in touch with the moderators? Perhaps they can clarify the situation?
