I thought you already ordered the kit? Some on this board like to tinker for perfection, they are also amateur tuners like me that are still learning and don't do it for a living, King is the only regular tuner on the board that I know of, yes we have vendors that tune professionally. Mike wired mine up in the Drury in parking lot in a couple hours and did logs on I65 the night before the LS Fest in 2022 and I was drag racing the next day, we did have to do some addition tuning later because we went to more boost. If you do a Holley you'll spend twice as much on the kit and it's not easy to tune from what I understand, if you do a DSX you'll be buying something that's new to the market, I've met Dave from Dsx at the track in St Louis a couple times. Really smart guy with great products. I'd bet some will have tuning issues with his at some point also. If you look at the shops that use THPSI regularly like Nickey Performance, New Era Performance, they are using this kit on a regular basis with no issues as other big shops are, all tuning has a learning curve with new products, not sure how your tuner bases it on one tune for one customer. I bet when he as initially starting to tune he found some tunes harder than others because of different mods to the vehicle. Hey, I'm biased and as a disclaimer Mike has tuned both my Camaro's and he was my boss at Magnuson, but if was a bad product no matter the affiliation I wouldn't have used it or would I promote it.
