FAQ
Straight answers.
The questions builders, tuners, and partners ask most. Anything else? Email us.
Are you open?
We’re opening soon and accepting early inquiries. The application works as an early inquiry: no payment is taken, and no work begins until we confirm in writing. If the form says your inquiry was saved in your browser only, nothing was sent, so please email us the reference. You can email [email protected] any time.
Which ECUs do you tune?
Eight license-free aftermarket standalone families: ECUMaster, Haltech, Link, MaxxECU, MegaSquirt, AEM Infinity, FuelTech, and Emtron. See supported ECUs.
Do you tune HP Tuners, EcuTek, or Cobb?
Not for now. Platforms that need paid licenses or per-vehicle credits are out of scope.
Why is a wideband required?
Remote calibration depends on accurate fueling data. A wideband logged in the ECU is the only way to see what the engine is actually doing. No wideband yet? Apply anyway, and we’ll tell you what to put in first.
Is remote tuning safe?
It has limits. Every job goes through House Review, including a safety review. High-boost and race calibrations should also be verified on a dyno, and we may pause work we don’t consider safe to do remotely.
How much does it cost?
Log review $75, map cleanup $250, full remote street tune $400 (+$75 per add-on), live session $150 per hour, targeted parts search $50, full parts list $100. The total is confirmed before anything is charged. Services & pricing.
How long does it take?
Turnaround depends on the job and the queue, so we confirm it in writing when your application passes intake screening, before you pay.
Who actually does the work?
Jobs are handled by the House calibration desk or, as the roster grows, a vetted partner tuner. You’re always told who before work starts.
Do you buy or ship parts?
No. Parts help is research only: you buy the parts yourself, and we don’t inspect, ship, or guarantee parts or sellers.
What is a build packet?
A staged plan for your build: ordering, go/no-go gates, a parts table with vendor links and prices, install notes, and totals. See the sample packet.
Are the sponsored cards ads?
Yes. Paid placements are always labeled Sponsored. House picks are never for sale. See how sponsorship works.
Can I join as a tuner?
Yes, if you tune license-free standalones and carry your own insurance. Read the tuner info kit, then apply.
Do you have a phone number or chat?
No. Email only: [email protected]. After you apply, that thread is your line for the job.
Are your agreements final?
Not yet. The client waiver, tuner agreements, privacy policy, and terms are drafts pending attorney review.
