Default Descendant Turbo with AEM FIC

Hey all, I recent purchased a used Descendant turbo from one of the members on this forum. I have called nearly 20 shops in the area and cannot find a single one that will tune me.

I originally planned on getting the vehicle towed to a shop after I install everything, but it looks like that isn't an option anymore.

Does anyone have the base map for this setup, so that I can drive to a tuner after my install?

Please provide any other opinions that you can regarding the topic. Any info is good info to me.

I couldn't find a number, or even a working website. robdescendant hasn't been on this forum since 2012 so I didn't even bother shooting him a pm.

I know they got out of the game because they couldn't keep up with Paul Dezod but I didn't know their website was down and stuff. Dang. Tax evasion sh.it going on there for sure.

Milwaukee but I'm doing an install at my buddy's place near Zion. I've already posted on the regional forum and got no replies. So far I've called around to shops within about a 40 minute drive/tow

Hit up Dezod. They may be able to help you out. They got base maps for sale and some freebee's to download at your own risk.

Do they have a contact on this site or should I go to Dezod Motorsports directly?

I said Paul Dezod in my post dude so you would hit them up. Surprised Paul didn't chime in on here yet. I'm sure he will today. Otherwise, yeah just call them and ask him. And I'm even more surprised that King Motorsports in New Berlin won't do it... that doesn't seem right. I live at that place.

Sorry I didn't catch that. I just sent them an e-mail. I haven't checked king motorsports because that's a far tow from Gurnee. $300 bucks just to tow it there doesn't seem worth it if I can get a basemap for less than 100 and probably be alright for the drive anywhere I want.

Gotcha. You said Milwaukee, so of course I'm going to bring up King. But now it seems you don't actually live anywhere near Milwaukee, or the car isn't anywhere near Milwaukee, one of the two.

No I appreciate the help. I live in Milwaukee but I'll be installing the turbo in northern Illinois.

I got another boy in Libertyville at Dubwerks, name is Rich. He's the man with VW's and Audis, but also a good tuner, so I'm not sure what his knowledge is on these, maybe give them a call. Libertyville is pretty much Northeast Ill.

No no no! He's the owner, but works on all the cars too. He DOES call back, but you gotta leave a message. If you do, he WILL call you back. So that's why he didn't answer is because he was out in the shop.
