I had my tuned at the subaru tuning place just on the South side of O'Hare....by a guy named Junior.

It appears they might of moved to Lisle:

What do you have for software? I needed to get my car up and running on the split second timer software.

I would take a hard look at the engine management before you pay to tune it. I haven't looked into the split second controller, but it sounds like its trying to make a stock DME use a MAF instead of the stock air flow meter. If so, it's not a good setup to spend another dollar furthering. Take some time to research M-tune, VEMS, and vitesse. All are viable products, and will give you a result that you can enjoy. A max chip and a ribbon cable is most likely going to be a band aid setup. The car looks really nice, and welcome to the group!

Its using a split second PSC 1 piggyback. Dont know too much about it it.
Was running really rich, my brother brought it home Friday night. Previous owner said it needed to be retuned.

Now, just cranks and tries to turn looks like there is no spark.

Interesting......I have the same software in my car. I bought the software and learned how to tune it myself. I could probably help you if you'd like to at least get it running at low throttle positions. Hopefully it has a wide band already installed.

Here's a post of mine:

FYI, I am in Forest Park. Feel free to send me a PM
