If it's the same Dante I know (Drives a silver Lightning, or at least did...) I know he's put down some awesome power inhis truck building and tuning it himself. He's made a few minor mods in my tune that I'm happy with (shift points).

Haven't heard from him in awhile although like here, his name pops up on the radar from time to time.

This is not a whole-hearted endorsement but on the other hand, I have NEVER heard anything bad about him either. Been to many F150 truck show with him all up and down the coast in the last 5-6 years.

IF it's not the same guy, then disregard.

Yes that is him. I actually meet him a couple of time and talked to him. He swear by SCT and I know he is making lots of power with his 9 or 10 sec lightning. I have heard of other mustangs doing good with him.

trust me, when you get a dyno tune go by reputation not price if you dont believe me read my dyno mite tuning thread. speaking of, DO NOT go to dyno mite.

-funny i said earlier today " if i can stop just one person from going there its enough"

i am going to RET tomorrow, from what ive heard i would suggest you do the same man.

I will honestly lay my own name on Greg at RET (Racers Edge Tuning). He is a great guy and by far the best tuner in So Cal IMO!!!! He is a pain in the ass to get a hold of by phone because he works by himself and will not/can not answer while tuning a car. Other than that he is good people. I will not let anyone tune my car except for him!!!!!!

That sounds really good to me when you guys back each other up about RET. But the thing is im going to have the worked on by some guys i know down here in SD but i dont have the tuner that came with the kit. I was going to get the tuner with a generic tune on it and drive to Dantes. But if the guy runs diablo tuning then i will drive up there. SO... im in delema now.

Ok Diablo equals.....trash IMO ok read that I said in my oppinion. I have used it on two seperate cars and had shatty outcomes. If you buy a tuner from anywhere/anyone that is an Xcal Greg can e-mail you a tune(free of charge) that will get you to his shop without causing too many issues. He did it for me and i am sure he will do it for you. Now I will not advise you to say ok that tune runs good screw the dyno because for the 350 that it takes to tune your car you will be mighty pleased in your pants. I was!!!!!! Trust me ! Give Greg a call and let him tune you up right. You will not be disappointed.

I was very satisfied with Greg at RET. He done a great job on tunning my car. Every mod I get now he will be the one to do the tune.
