i wasnt too keen on the whole layout off Thor, they may of had a good reputiation but frmo when i went with sam i was dissapointed to see how they opperate. its basically a normal mechanics garage with a farty little fan they put in front of your car.
If yours just having a power run at weston they dont just stick the car on and say its making this much power... they will put LOTs of diffrent sensors on the car and tell you how healthy the engine is. i.e knock sensor, intake temps and obviasly a/f ratio.
if you pop down and have alook youll see there deffinatly into there business.

As Dan said already can highly recommend Weston Perforamance, very very professional and really have a passion for what they do. The prices may not be as competitve as the rest but i would much rather go to Weston and pay that bit more knowing i will get a reliable quality tune at the end of the day.

Elane - Yea it just seemed to be like every other mechanics garage to me, a tunning garage too me should be more customer apealing. they didnt really have a dyno room as such, just a closed of section to the garage . At weston they have a room with the dyno and a viewing room next to it and also a PC in which you can record you dyno runs if you wanted to as theres some cameras in there, also about 3 screens showing you what the tuner is doing i.e it displays your figuers ect.
Thor was more of a drop your car off any hang about not knowing whats going on.
weston you can watch every move during the whole process.

That’s fair enough I have been to many different “turning” places over the years and find they all seem to vary.
Triton Motor sport (my local) is set up very similar to Thor it is a mechanical work shop first and a Dyno centre second. There RR is open you can stand right next to it while they carry out the run.
I think the thing with Thor and to be fair most of there places if you take your car there to get mapped ect they would like to be left alone to do it.
Triton will not allow you in the workshop while there setting the car up and they keep the car for 2 days so once it’s dropped off they send you on your way
