I'm glad to hear so many positive responses. On that note, I'd like to mention that Dom is willing to make another trip out here as long as we have enough (at least 6) to make his trip out here worth while... I will keep everyone in the loop when the time comes.

Oh yeah... I'm not usually a sticker ***** but I have a spot for Dom's sticker when it's available

Dom went back out? GREAT!!! Jon, looks like you put in a good word with the right people....Jose has my stock turbo in his wagon!
How many people got DomTuned this time? Did Dallas get his heap running right?

My STi started driving throught the clutch in the cold weather down here (40s and 50s) in 4th and 5th. Can you say torque boys and girls?

Shakkas, braddah. Good looking out on the VF39, she rides smooth.

My favorite part of him tuning was that he pulled logs in every gear, and in idle. He also checked the how the car drove under normal driving conditions with the ac on and off.

I didnt even tune but I watched like a hawk.

BlueTR, he smoothed the timing in the top end on all gears so downshifts are easier on the engine. Also, hitting redline doesn't make the car throw itself on its face. Bottom line, he didn't just tweak to make power numbers, he refined everything to make the car run better. I'm happy knowing that all the details have been paid attention to, and (unlike many tuners who jealously guard their knowledge) he's willing to tell you exactly what he's doing. There's a reason Maxwell propulsion has him tuning their Subaru engines all day to put in planes...

Just talked to Dallas...man, that kid can't catch a break. Apparently he stuffed it into a wall on H3 going to work in the rain. Helloooo back end damage. He's fine, just understandably pissed.
