You have to contact tuners and see how your goals aligne with the tuners strength. What is important to you first and foremost.
Drob is great, john vega is great.
As you see Jester04 is active and easily accessible to his customers.

Jester will soon become a common name that we all hear when it comes to reputable tuners. You guys all know that I beat my car hard around the track, and I trust Jester's tunes to give me the performance and reliability that I'm looking for.

@Jester04 it may be helpful to share how many FL5/DE5 vehicles you've tuned and perhaps how many members from the forums to give prospective buyers an idea of scale.

FWIW, I have no plans to tune my car, but if I did, I would go with @Jester04 no question. From the reviews the throughlines are: knowledgeable, service before the sale (i.e, it's not clear you will become a customer and he still treats you like one), responsive, fair pricing, and willingness to go above and beyond. What would tip my hand if I were on the fence is his no cost support for certain changes. A tuner charging you a fee to flip a toggle switch on a map they sold you is asinine. That alone would be a 'no' for me.

I wish I could tell you off the top of my head but I lost count already. Roughly over 50 cars now within both forums, and local cars.

With quite a few more on the waitlist for ECU jailbreaks and tunes.

@Jester04 gets my vote. Have used a few of the other tuners for the 10th/11th gen multiple times and @Jester04 gets my vote. All the tuners will get you to a similar end point but I'd much rather have a personal connection with the tuner who genuinely truly cares about you and your build.

There are lots of questionable tuners out there but there is not anyone listed here that I would recommend against. Have fun!

Reposting an old message of mine:

I've done a PRL intake and have a TSP downpipe on order. Been driving on the Hondata basemap for a few weeks and while the power bump was nice, the tune felt a little dirty. Worked with @Jester04 yesterday and my goodness does this car move effortlessly now. Power comes on so smooth and clean and even the shifting is better. I have no idea what HP numbers are now and honestly don't care. All I know is that I am not interested in more power than what I currently have. I'll install the downpipe in spring and I figure way down the road if my stock intercooler gets visibly beat up from debris I'll go ahead and do a PRL with some charge pipes.

I can't speak highly enough about @Jester04. His tune is incredible and only surpassed by his patience and desire to please.

Any chance one of the tuners listed will come to dfw for some local unlocks and tunes??? I just can’t do the whole mailing my ecu out thing.
