good kill, I'm planning on a similar setup you have too so this gives me even more reason to go with a 2.8 and 60#s, did you buy a stage kit or just shop around individually?

I bought the stage 2 kit from OTTP and then had it re-tuned at SMG because I kept throwing codes for running rich I just cant stand CEL's

I've heard Fred is a good tuner but he doesn't like to push cars past their limits cause his rep. can be shattered
If you want to go for numbers I'm sure he would but I'm willing to bet you would be signing a paper saying he's not responsible

From what i could see/hear you barely pulled a fender if that which he got back before you backed off which is why the comment came in your 5th is so much better (for STI) cause the vid was taken from the STI. Nice runs but def not a kill, Do it from a dig! Oh and your description is off. your past a stage 2 balt....

he is just covering his ass. same thing any sane person would do. why would you want to push the car past its limits, that usually means breaking something.

So he's a good/smart guy for that, some tuners just don't care.
