AB Alberta Rotary Turbo/Supercharger Tuners

Hey guys,

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction here. I want to put a turbo or supercharger on my car over the winter. The only problem is I don't have the slightest clue how to tune the car once the turbo is on. Does anyone know of anybody in Alberta who could do the tunning? Any past experiences with them? How did it turn out? Any info would be greatly apreciated!

Basically 200 is saying it isn't worth it... it is very costly, there are none that fit without any mods. And once you do it, your engine won't last long because it is not designed for that.

wll kind of what im ing but my point is 99% of members here would love their car to f/i but several times a week some noob starts a thread "i want a turbo/sc, what turbo for 500hp, can i use a universal kit etc" without reading. there is no lack of info on this site and pretty much any question you can think of has been asked and answered

wow easy there 200. I didn't ask anything about what is involved with going FI. I've done the research. I know what it's going to cost, I know the effect it will have on my engine life/reliability, I know that there is no one size fits all turbo for these cars. Fortunatly I live in Alberta where I have a well paying job and these issues are not that big for me. I've got 8 months of winter to deal with where I won't be driving the car. The only thing I'd like to know is who here has dealt with a repuatable shop in Alberta who would be able to tune the 8 without cratering 5 engines doing so. I know of two shops that might be able to do it but they specialize in RX-7's, and the renesis is a whole different beast.

ok sorry if i came off harsh but the dumb *** questions here about f/i get old. if you truley did your reasearch im sorry for being a dick. as far as tuning goes kane does web classes and iirc he will travel for a fee, wcs is in canada and might be able to help you out and theres always our banned tuner which we dont speak of.

dont let an rx7 tuner work on your car. its a different animal
