ECU tuning - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Eventually I'm planning on moving back to the US.  I'll be looking for a place to tune my SDS (stand-alone engine management) or I might go with a different setup.  Either way, I think its one of the most important parts of tuning, and I'm looking for a shop that could do a great job.  Is there any consensus as to what shops are known for their quality work?  I have been considering SP Engineering from California, but I haven't made any firm decisions.  I have some stuff that's a bit different, and I would like to get in touch with a shop before I move and get more information. Any help would be appreciated  Thanks.

I'm not bringing a car back, its too much regulation BS to deal with, so just a pair of SRs and a ton of parts.

joe- I'll try and get in touch with you if I find one.

You might also want to consider XS Engineering in city of Fullerton.  They have tuner and dyno facilities.  Not sure about SDS, but the tuner currently are familiar with the Apexi Power FC, and possibly even Haltech.
