pfoyle Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Looking for some information on what my options are for Pro-Tuners in/around Boston... I'd rather not drive to EFI Logics in CT for a tune! Found a few options through google (AJW Performance, Dent Sport Garage), but was hoping to get some first hand knowlege, if at all possible... Positive reviews? Negative reviews? Looking to get this done within the next few weeks, so any information would be great! TIA for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfoyle Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 BMX, any more info you can provide? Have you used them? Do you work for them? Any dyno numbers from their custom tunes? Pricing? Their website is surprisingly unhelpful for '10+ Sub Legacy owners... no pricing or dyno numbers that I could find... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmx045 Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 many people have, great results, waiting for them to chime in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrw Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I've used him. And Bren is the only one that will touch my car tune wise. Pricing, call or email (just a note he's currently on vacation till monday 4/23) each car is different. I'm not sure on the 2010+ legacy numbers as I haven't seen any strapped to the dyno since I've been doing video work for him, started this project sometime in February.

vtbimmer Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Bren rocked on my stage 2 EWG tune. Extremely happy with the results. 270whp and 350wtq on a stock vf40. You wont be dissapointed. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v709/vtbmw525/My%2005%20RBP%20LGT/431068_2947282695619_1667859446_2565366_753767734_n.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasejase Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 He managed to pull 347whp out of my 18g. 45 hp increase from my prior dyno tune. Feels GREAT. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfoyle Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Do you want the best in New England or the closest to where you live? Well I'm not sure I'm willing to drive to EFI in CT for a tune (3ish hours from Somerville MA), but I'd say anywhere within a 1.5-2hour drive would be reasonable... Especially cause the drive back will take even less time! Who'd you have in mind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDII Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 EFI Logics. Do you want a tuner that his sole job is tune cars, a tuner that COBB flies out to their headquarters to help them tune, a tuner that gets new subarus shipped to him from COBB to be the first to tune them, a tuner with more subaru experience than any other person on the east coast? Or do you want a save an hour drive and get a good tune from a part time tuner? I know when I hand the keys over to my car I want the very best working on it. That's just me though. Need forum help?

ChachiFBaby Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Without getting into a whole mess, just email Brentuning. After you speak with him you'll understand. Shoot me a PM if you want personal experience/numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robitrice Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 i can vouch for bren as well...if you want more info pm me as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minuccims Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Bren is good yes, but for a 2010+, consider the extra hour and go to EFI Logics. Chris @ EFI helped COBB break the 5th gen's gear independent maps. He tuned a 2011 to get the COBB maps on the streets. EFI was the first on the east coast for a 5th gen Stage I, Stage II and beyond.

2005hondakilla Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 .......you people are lost. All turbo subarus are tuned the same way. If you can tune a bug eye you can tune a 2010 lgt. He made 50whp and 90wtq on my 2011 wrx. EFI and Bren are both great tuners. Its all in who you prefer. They both can cobb protune. You cant compare the tuner unless your cars been tuned by both of them. Id say talk to them both. Whoever you think works for you go for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2005hondakilla Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Bren isnt a part time tuner btw....soneones just on the rag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmx045 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I'm not sure if Bren has the def's for 10+ LGT, yet. They aren't readily listed on RR forums, for that matter unlike the wrx and sti. I'm sure he can get it either way, and I'm not sure if cobb has released them for OS tuning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasejase Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 ^^ What he said. I have used a few tuners in the past 18 months... And a couple within the past 2 months, in order to really find what i was after regarding drivability and overall power. Bren was the clear winner for me. I drove the 2.5 hours for Bren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2005hondakilla Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 .......you people are lost. i know where i am bro....This was more directed to people who say one tuner isnt as good as another when they havent been tuned by both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an business degree from Harvard, but I can't say it's better than a business degree from ITT tech because I never attended ITT tech. Need forum help?
