Not actually stating the tuners name doesn't really help people here. Unless everyone knows you are talking about Marin.
It was a question not a review lol.

New question:
How will it impact your current base tune if switching to a new tuner?

the base tune becomes void. new tuner will provide you with new files, i.e. conservative, 93, E blend, etc., whatever it is you ask for

i want to share my experience. i'm also waiting for a new file from my tuner, who participated at TX2K. he posted his new email schedule, elucidated he'll be traveling and busy, to expect delays, etc. email him and you receive an auto-response with the same explanation. i have zero worries-- if he forgets, i'll email him again

tuners i've read to avoid: Visconti, Marin
reputable tuners: Sameh, Payn, Mikey, Jesse

Jeff is on a family vacation for the last week, and us at TX2K only got partial support- we knew that going in. Marin is hard to get a hold of- always. Botti is traveling this week and next, and was at TX2K last week.

Damn I wish this post was created before I invested in a tuner.

For Visconti, my understanding is most of the complaints people have are with regards to his online presence/attitude. The actual tune quality is good and response times are quick. Unless there's something I've missed.

Charge back and refund was considered but itā€™s been too long to dispute with credit card company.
Youā€™re technically still engaged in the service you paid for, right? Have you tried to charge back?

I had an issue like that with my prior tuner, his name rhymes with gain šŸŒš

sent a couple logs out, was told heā€™d get back to me, never did. Sent a couple of follow up emails, never got anything back.

Got tired of the non responsiveness, switched tuners and went with Zach out CSG, since heā€™s local, and have heard fabulous things about him.

Zach always gets back same day, and will always inform you of any delays and i appreciate that.
I had similar issues with this specific tuner as well. My tune is still not finished nearing a yearā€¦. I usually get responses & revisions every 1-2 months so letā€™s not blame the non responsiveness on TX2K. At this point, Iā€™ll cut my losses.

Made the switch to Zack and couldnā€™t be happier with the level of customer service. He usually gets back to me within 24 hours and provide recommendations/guidance to ensure you enjoy your tune and not damage your car.

For what itā€™s worth, Zach finished my custom tune in a week. My car runs 100% better then the previous tune.

So my question is how is the car running now? Are their known issues? Etc?

Just throwing an idea out there, ever consider your ā€œbase mapā€ is a fine tuned map for your car and doesnā€™t need any revisions or changes?

Then I would love to receive an email or any type of communication stating so. Oh well, it's only been 3 weeks since I sent the logs, I'll wait some more. If he's legit sick I really hope he'll get well soon.

This is a fact. If Marshall wasnā€™t allowed to use Wi-Fi then Visconti would be seen as king by all
