Dynojet Dyno at TAG - Stay Away

Hey guys...

I don't usually post such things as I try to stay as neutral as possible, but many of you know that I have been involved in organizing a dyno day, and one of our options was TAG, where a dyno day was held last year.

Some of you were disappointed with your numbers, etc. so I decided to go to TAG before the dyno day and run my car to ensure everything was in line so we can get good numbers for everybody as it looks like we will have 30+ people for the dyno day.

Well the guys at TAG basically told our community to go F$%$ themselves. I won't get into the details, but I think its a place to avoid! as I have never experienced such atrocious customer service and attitude.

Mike

There is no point getting into things really..

Basically went there with an appointment to run on the dyno to ensure calibrated well, showed up, nothing ready, when I reminded them we have an appointment and why I am there they went on a rant about how anybody who thinks their dyno isn't perfect doesn't know what they are talking about and anybody who didn't like their number last year can go screw themselves.. and we don't need your dyno day money...

Like I said

Usually I don't care about it if someone doesn't give me good customer service but saying anybody who was unhappy last year can screw themselves is just plain wrong. We had a couple guys dyno at 225 whp with tune but the guys at Tag think the car wasn't set up correctly. What can you do

In the end its my opinion, and just a warning. Whether you go or not I could really care less but I thought it was worth mentioning, and I really have no monetary gain either way so this isn't me being a vendor but me being a fellow enthusiast.

Mike

Mikes a great guy and very professional. Dealt with him 2 or 3 times for the BMS chip and i have no issues respecting/believing his feedback about TAG.

I'm out of the dyno run.

thanks for the heads up mike.

If anyone is willing to drive to the east then we can check out DaSilva Racing. Their customer service is excellent. Been going their with my buddies Stang for a while now.

Willing to do a dyno day/bbq. His dyno is a mustang so it wouldnt be for anyone seeking inflated numbers.

Thanks for the offer but we are limiting our search to dynojets as thats the standard on the forums here and most guys want to compare to everybody else so a dynojet is more applicable in this situation.

Champion is great, but their location isn't suited for 50+ cars we are expecting for the BBQ, etc...
