Tuning History

In 2004 I purchased an 8th gen galant with the intent to save up for the brand new Evo VIII that was just released in the US. Of course that didn’t last long after finding out the 4g64 was being used for stroker motors in the evo VIII. One thing lead to another and I had retrofitted an evo 9 turbo with supporting mods and done an eclipse 5 speed conversion. At this point tuning the stock ecu for an NA car to understand boost was unheard of. I directly worked with and learned from already established ecu calibrators/ecu decompilers/coders/and wiring specialists who honed my skills.

In 2010 I bought my first evo (Evo X) and in 2014 I bought my second evo (Evo VIII) To date the amount of R&D put into both of these vehicles is innumerable. From sun down to sun up for months testing, adjusting, fine tuning. I lived it, breathed it and ate it.
My friends soon discovered my calibration skills and I shared them. After many years of being told to do it full time; I conceded in 2017 and switched to Apex Powered full time. Since my start in 2004, I have directly tuned & supported many evo’s. Road course racing at Willow Springs International Raceway in California. High altitude drag racing at 10,000 ft density altitude at Bandimere Speedway in Colorado. Invite only road racing from 5,000 ft to 14,000 ft elevation at Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. You name it, we have raced it. From stock power levels to 1100+ whp monsters both inside and outside of the United States. You name it, we have supported it.
