eectuner

[Joshua Ely]

 I don't know if he totally relies on the dyno. I do know that
Martin has his own shop. It's called automotor sports. He also
designs custom cams for a few types of vehicles. He designed
a cam for a guy named Randy S. Randy is the guy that developed
the software for the eectuner on turbo 2.3L fords. Randy has
a xr4ti that had about 360hp with the ranger cam. Martin had
a cam that he designed and installed it in Randys car while it
was still on the dyno. Randy did a little more tuning and pulled
399hp at the wheels.The also take there cars to the track for
real world use.
