You won't be dissapointed, Joe is a straight shooter and a very well respected tuner.

Go and have a chat with him and then make up your mind.

Don't make a choice by an opinion off a forum, in the end you have to feel comfortable that your tuner will look after you and your car and will back his work.

My car is tuned by Spiro at Autotech but I have spoken to Joe a few times and he tells it like it is and does not try to feed you what you want to hear.

I don't know Cresent Motorsport, and so this is in NO WAY a reflection of the work they do, but almost any tuner can make your car a weapon, the trick is to make sure it doesn't blow up, so just make sure you do your research before doing anything.

There are plenty of stories of destroyed engines due to aggressive tuning strategies and high boost, so as I said, it pays to do some research.

this bloke has hit it on the head...I was this close to going through with him...untill I heard a few stories and did abit of "price shopping" myself

the products he uses are rapid (very good quality and great price!) the extra price I found that crescent puts on top as apposed to calling chris (rapid)direct to get a quote for parts supply only was a f*cking joke and believe me it was alot of money that crescent bumped on top..

end of the day go to a few tuners and see who you feel comfortable with

You get what u pay for. If you want a 90% that'll do tune, I'd wouldn't go to CMS cause that doesn't happen there. Some pretty impressive cars have rolled off their Dyno of late and a CMS 350 rwkw car will match it with any other 400 jobby. One thing to enquire on forums and other to ring the shop. My advice is to swing by the shop and have a chat.

Also ask about there secret new tune called "Joe I scare".

Joe will use any product you want to use, Chris' gear is good but its up to you what you want to use. I myself have only heard good things of Joe and CMS and have spoken to Joe and Chris a number of times and have found them to be very honest blokes. Can I ask what stories you have heard.

Sydney is spoilt for choice. Lots of very quick cars.

As said drop in or pick up the phone and talk to the bloke who does the tuning.

Alan raises a good point. Anyone can jam boost in to make a weapon .

eg a good ole fashion Wog tune
