If you personally saw how he works the tunes, you'd would not chose anyone else -- he is that engaged into the tuning process. I've personally seen his throughness on not just my car, but others at GPI...

This is very important for me as I want to tune it myself, but knowing that someone knowledgeable is there to support their product makes a big difference no doubt

For me one of the benefits of GPI within driving distance is getting Ryan to tune your car, he pays attention to the details and doesn't rush through it. I've seen other post about Ryan doing remote tunes but I only did this for a startup tune only.
Remote tune is very good news for me; as far as I've checked around here, no body is really willing to play with the VVT
Not to mention I already have the hptuner

I installed the SS1 VVT camshaft and drive it with the stock converter, it behaves very well in daily driving. It makes great power and just sounds nasty. Just recently I felt the need for more power again. I just purchased the Mangnuson Heartbeat from GPI. Again, Aaron fixed me up with everything I needed to install the supercharger. He spec'd upgraded injectors and a different pulley. I am currently working the tune out with Ryan. Their camshafts are proven and the guys are great to work with. It will transform your car into a beast.
That is fantastic, enjoy it mate

I had a buddy who did the SS1, made 455 on load dyno. Had nice lope. That's almost a 100 rwhp gain from stock.
I can't ask for more, any idea what are the supporting mods?
