You're not going to have any issues at F&F. If you just want some pulls or want to tune your own car than they are perfect. They are very knowledgeable and street smart about engines in general and can offer advice but don't expect them to hold your hand if you are tuning a fuel injected engines' ecu.

If you want to pay someone else to tune your engine than your going to have to drive outside of KW.

Every time I've been to F&F I've had my own "advisor" as well as metering equipment for A/F, etc. I pretty much only use the dyno.
