Your can try Murillo Motorsports here in SA. They don't do imports much but they are good with Turbo Mustangs.

i'd stil say go to rotary performance. Arie is a true badass with rotaries. if an extra hour or so is the difference in somebody who doesn't hardly mess with imports at all, and a guy that's known for making not only imports, but rotaries specifically, fast...it's well worth it!

and i'm not taking anything away from Murillo either, they are badasses in themselves but with the stangs, and mostly the foxbodies.

Totally. Rotary performance is bad ***. You may also want to call Tito at Alamo Rotary, I hear he is back in business. He does not have a Dyno but he knows his ****.

even without a dyno you can still get a great tune. It's always said that road tuning can prove to be much more accurate tune.

True that, I have seen a ton of dyno queens.

I AM OJ IMPORTS, meaning I have my car still there. My car is the only 8 turboed in the valley! Done the above. Just wanted to see if anything else is available. I talked to arie aleady, he told me that he is down for the tune. I talked to alamo rotary and tito said he is bearly fixing his mean 3 rotora right now. Thanks for everybodys help and I will soon be in garland...... PM your digits "el judeo" means jew. I am going to be in town pretty soon.
