    Big thanks to Victor and Alpha from Induction performance.

    I had to write this because I need to show how dedicated some of these guys are. First off I bought a Pro efi and a 6466 turbo from Victor. The guy gave me a deal I couldn't refuse. Victor has the "best" prices on parts. I must have called Victor at least 25 times because of questions I had on my car. He answered the phone everytime and gave me his full attention.
    Now yesterday I was supposed to meet up with Alpha to tune my car in Ny. I was supposed to be there by 9:30 am. Because of my retarded GPS I got there a little late. I met up with Alpha at M&S Performace(Mikey is a very cool down to earth guy), we spoke for a few minutes, and BAM!!!! This guy just turned into a machine.
    First thing first it was at least 100 degrees outside. This guy stood out in the sun for hours checking my car up and down to make sure everything was perfect(wires and other shit). When he was finally done, we drove the car( car sounded like it was on its last breath) to the dyno. When we arrived, he again checked the car one more time. lol at one point he looked at me while he was sweating to death and said " Bro go sit in the office where they have a/c" I was like man this guy is crazy. He finally got the car on the dyno, and he started tunning the car. This guy looked like he could close his eyes and tune the car. it was awesome to see him do what he does best.
    At one point, he told me that my wastegate had an issue and some hoses had to be switched around to make it work properly. He looked at me and said...oh well shit happens. He turned right around, jacked the car up while it was on the dyno, and started changing what he had to underneath the car. Keep in mind it was 90+ degrees now and he also had all the heat from the motor in his face.
    Alpha is a fucking machine period. What he did for me and my car I will never forget. For the guys that don't know me, I had some very bad luck with the car in the past, and was considering selling it. When Alpha finally finished my car, I felt like I was driving a stock Supra. The idle was stuck on 1000 rpm's and didn't move(even when I blasted the a/c) Every pull we did from ever gear was smooth like butter.
    It has been a long time since i felt this good about the car. The way my car runs and drives is without a doubt the best is has "ever" run.
    Alpha thank you so much for everything bro. I gained so much respect for you while I sat in the a/c and watched you fry in the crazy heat, tunnig my car.
    Guys if your tired of bullshit tunes and your car not running right. Do yourself and your car a favor. Call these guys and enjoy your car again. He worked on my car from 10:30am to 12 midnight and stopped once to eat a slice of pizza. This guy is nuts(in a good way)
    Thanks for reading.

    oh and for anyone who cares, I made 603rwhp on pump gas and I believe 753rwhp on e85. 6466 turbo is fuking sick!!!!

    Another +1 for Alpha. I've asked him questions and he answered them to the best of his knowledge.

    The heat thing he was probably used to, but he still is a beast. Victor is a cool dude, met him in TX and he is fun as hell to party with. Never a dull moment.

    can't go wrong with Induction.... I think all of us that have had the pleasure to have Alpha and victor work on our cars should chip in and give them a vacation (but after my car gets done)... I dont want them to get burned out and retire... he and victor are a great asset to our hobby!!! I love these guys even though they take all my money.

    This is exactly the way I felt (and still do) after Alpha tuned my car. The sup has been solid ever since with no issues (except for wb sensor). Alpha's tune is by far the best tuned I've had after having used three different other tuners

    Props to Alpha for another job well done!!

    Two BIG thumbs up for Alpha. I also had the pleasure of meeting him and had him tune my supra. He's a great guy to deal with and can't say enough a very cool and knowledgeable tuner.

    You can't go wrong with his service.

    I'm finally back at the shop today trying to catch up. I had to take Monday off due to these hardcore guys in NY and NJ. You guys are a blast! I want to thank ur lozin for making the three plus hour drive to get his car tuned. The guy is a trooper.

    We took the car out after the dyno. We made multiple passes in it. Between his tires and his traction control it was A LOT of fun.

    Def use to the heat. It didn't bother me that much being I had a gallon of water. Yup. Victor is a huge part of the team to say the least.

    Thank you Deck. Still to this day I have people asking and talking to me about your Supra. Actually this trip or the last one I had a guy tell me "I want my car tuned just like Deck's" and had a very similar setup to your's.
