Hello everyone, I wanted to ponder other people's minds about custom tuning for the FiST. Short background in my case, I went about looking for an upgraded tune for my car around 600 miles, and since at that time my car was still otherwise factory-stock, I went with the Cobb AP, and have been running their stage 1 93oct. OTS map for around the past 4000 miles now. I must admit, for an OTS map, the tune has been fantastic, and the car has run absolutely perfect. However now, I've modified the car a fair amount since that point, and am now running a turbo back straight pipe (Milltek 3"-2.5" DP, 2.5" cat-back), an Injen SP intake as well as a Turbosmart BOV, so I figure now is a good time to go about switching to a custom tune to fit my car specifically given the physical modifications it now has.
Without turning this into a poll thread, I wanted to ask others here who they think I realistically should go to for this. I come from the UK car scene (current project car is a Mk.II MG Midget), so I'm very familiar with names such as M Sport, Pumaspeed, Mountune, etc when it comes to ST's and RS's, and I've been considering going to Mountune for a tune, as I know especially that Mr. Randy here in the US gets nothing but praise for his work. However in my case, there's one hiccup in that option, in that my Accessport did not come from Mountune specifically, and I understand that you have to have gotten an AP directly from Mountune in order to use their tunes, or something similar. Regardless, as much as I do respect Mountune, I'm not going to go about spending an extra $500 for a second AP simply to use one custom map, so I'm open to other suggestions as well. In my case, Boomba Racing is also a 20 minutes drive.
Many thanks in advance everyone.
