who the hell tuned or should i say tryed to tune your car?
you should be taking it straight back and leaving it with them,
a car wont be tuned to its best in only a hour and 5 runs.
take your car back and leave it with them, dont wait around and stop them from doing there job of tuning it because you dont want to push it to hard
give them how ever long it takes to do it

When u have an experienced tuner with over 20 years of experience, Tuning doesnt take longer than 45 odd minutes.
Having several hundred basline tunes to work from is a good start. From there only fine adjustments are made to be fully tuned.
Witnessed a fresh installed 232/234 @112 cam in a VZ calais get tuned in half hour. No stally, but has perfect idle and runs well, bit of a slug though but stally fixes that.
If u want a full tune to be done from scratch and 30 or more thrashings on the dyno for a tune over several hours then go to someone who doesnt know what to do.
I know where ill be going... experience tells.
