Part of my point wasn't just the "tuning" certification but includes several factors:

1. Coming up with a complete kit that works safely
2. Installation of the kit
3. And finally dyno tuning (if necessary)

I'll admit, it is pretty rare to see certifications in this business, but I just can't see how long the clause "race only" is going to survive on street based cars. I'm certainly not trying to trivialize the necessary knowledge, in fact, just the opposite - hence certifications.

Charlie, do you have a pricing structure and turn around schedule for stock ECU reflash? Also, is there any switching ability to return to stock ECU map (aka one that can be used to pass smog)?

I have onboard accelerometers with GPS for speed (pretty darn good ones in my IQ3 dash/data logger) so I can easily evaluate the real world effectiveness of a tune either with EFI or a reflash to determine if I'm loosing or gaining power (along with EGT, AFR, IAT, etc. etc.).
