    I went to their website where they claim they have the best tune and do all the high end cars.

    I emailed them and asked a few questions

    Here is the BS I got. They just dont get it that car people are not your average buyers.


    "Hi Don,


    I know its late but I'm helping out a another tuner abroad.

    The R8 V10 is the exact same car as the Lamborghini (We tune cars for the Lamborghini dealership here).

    The gain is about 45-55hp, we take it back to the Lamborghini spec and then add more power. Shifting is improved, we remove the hesitation/flat spots/speed limiter, etc.

    We can also turn the volume up on the stock exhaust if desired.

    I need a shovel after reading this and they get away with it.

    Then he claims they did the first R8s in North America!!!


    Hi Don,

    We program Bentley's/Bugatti's/Ferrari/Lamborghini's for the biggest dealer in the US.

    I'm not sure who APR tune for, I'll ask around.

    We programmed the first V8 and V10 in NA.

    I will never put another tuner down to make a sale, you can call us whenever your free and we'll tell you our clientele and then compare it (one of my customers has 435 exotics including 17 drophead Rolls Royces and another is the 6th richest man in world... That's a start). My customers have probably never heard of the companies you just mentioned.

    I hope we don't sound pompous.

    Regards,
    Jags


    Never heard of APR??

    Anyone heard of this stellar company? Maybe I am wrong here..

    Is this Singh Autosport?

    If so, these a$$ clowns also told me I couldn't dyno a before and after to measure my gains because there is no "real" dyno in America.

    They created a new web front lol! Let me siph through my old email, I have the exact conversation with Jags now apparently formerly of Singh Autosport.

    I was going to give him a try awhile back for the Gallardo and S5 but totally walked away after he said I couldn't dyno the cars first at dynospot (Fremont, just down the road) then again once after the tune was completed. He claimed there is no "real" dyno in America to properly measure gains but goes onto say i will feel the gain. I don't care if he tuned President Obama's Escalade, my car doesn't run on faith and celebrity juice.
