At the end of the day we choose to modify our cars and we have to know the risks. Every tuner has blew up motors. Nothing new. Just dont be ignorant when its you.

You should visit our social media pages and check the DA of the dragy/p-gear slips we have shared before commenting like that. Soon we will crank up our Mustang AWD-500 dyno at our new shop which is 450m above sea level and hopefully, you will be pleased <3. |

We showcase all of our work on social media no matter the DA and no cropped photos Anyway, this thread is about who is the good go-to tuner. I would say Both Paul and Cary have done good work on BMW F/G series platforms UNP as well. If you would ask me I would say HCP is the best B). I personally have been inspired by his work. He is the most knowledgeable guy in European car tuning. Peace. |

Power vs abuse (heat) vs maintenance Honesty is the best policy; if you drive like an asshole 24/7 and dont have 30-40k to spend on a motor make sure your tuner knows and it’ll last. |

I think the most severe lesson learned and where it got the most frustrating is where i involved Visconti into the mix. Jon is selling kits without even providing platform specific instructions and then has the audacity to barate my mechanic regarding his questions and subsequently almost costing me the only mechanic on island willing to do the job. I have 1.5k worth Visconti shtuff setting here, a heap of disrespectful emails to my mechanics Ill gladly share with the community to include one saying send me pics so I can consider refund (right before going silent and unresponsive), and 3k of mechanic bills for un/install. I hear rumblings on here all the time but for me, Paul tuning and PFS hardware made a really solid combo. Ill get some dragys soon as we are currently on full e85 flex dialing in with ps2+, pfs pi, mad catless/mid/intakes, pfs lpfp, motive+, bm3 flex, csf oil/hxch. And of course love this MAD exhaust and intakes. |

Im on stock manifold. I asked several people abt that and was told up to you. I asked would you? The answer was a resounding no with comparison to s55 crankhub failures. Many also said to use that 6k towards transmission upgrade or engine build. If i had not already bought port inj setup i could have possibly justified it but that would have been minimal savings. |

Jordan does not know what to do with these motors. It seems the s55 is his forte, and he cannot tune the S58 properly.
You will pay for a custom E50 tune that will at best perform right around the BM3 OTS E50 map, possibly slower. Please everyone use Paul (or Orlando Auto as they use Paul) if you are between the two, the performance differences are drastic. I used Cary with my s55 and it ran great, but he does not have these S58 figured out by any means. Last edited by hellcat2m4; 03-01-2024 at 04:32 PM.. |

the S55 and the S58 are similar in the way they make power that i dont think one can be good at tuning one but not the other

I thought the same as well, unfortunately that wasn't the case. Maybe the other member here will speak up as well that also had the same thing happen to them.
