    While the Ebay listing is rather sketchy with limited info offered, they do look to be a legit company. I couldn't find a website, but they do have a facebook page with some of their projects profiled. But again, not a lot of details of their projects (before and after dyno charts would be nice)

    I have also talked with them but after talking to a few other owners, I doubt I would be happy with their tune. They say your car should go on the Dyno Machine for proper tuning.

    I also looked into this company/person.
    Tried to get contact via Facebook/email and the responses only came in sporadic bursts.
    The history looks a little weird with some very odd claims to fame.
    So did not end up with a warm/secure feeling.

    Went with Steve of Mase Engineering and very happy with the results.

    Their gains listed are absolutely not realistic, and the tuning product they are using cannot be adjusted in the way they claim it can.

    To properly tune the 360 and 430, the ECU's need to be removed and sent to a tuner. They cannot be tuned via the OBDII.

    When in doubt... do without.

    OP, what was your resolution?

    I also went with Steve at Mase Engineering. I was able to drive to his shop (with an appointment) and get my 360 on his dyno with before and after ECU tune. I am very pleased with the results!!!!!!!!

    We also tune 360 ECU's and they have to be removed and sent in to be tuned.

    Yes Jason has been involved in many shady dealings for many years. I wouldn't let him tune a guitar never mind a Ferrari. As mentioned, the units have to be bench-flashed you can't do it through the OBD port...
