I just leased a building, ordered a Mustang MD1100 Dyno and bought a couple of lifts all in the name of getting my new business venture off the ground.
Some of you guys may be familiar with CCS tuning from the Austin area. The man that operated CCS, Jim Paschall, has become a good friend of mine over the past year and half. If any of you are familiar with my plight I have spent the prior two years trying to find someone who could get my car to perform as expected (I may have had to high of expectations). Anyway, an employee of mine told me about Jim and said I should contact him, I did and he did and well, anyway Jim finally did what four other tuners, one of them nationally known, could not. So the story goes like this.
Jim had a business partner (Silent partner) that helped him start CCS Tuning approximately three years ago. His partner and his wife recently died in an airplane crash and this threw CCS into the estate of the partner and his wife for which both of their families picked it apart. This left Jim pretty much out in the street. When I heard this I thought man that sucks, not only what they did was unimaginable but now I don't have a reliable tuner to work on my cars (selfish I know). So, as I stayed in touch with Jim to find out what he was going to do and where he would end up, we got to talking about him possibly coming up here and looking around to see if this would be a viable area to start a new. Jim came up a few weeks ago and spent a week with me. While here we started researching the area to see what the competition would be like as well as get a feel from other enthusiasts such as you and me as to how much is a good (really good) tuner needed here in Oklahoma City that can tune GM, Ford or Dodge including carbureted vehicles. The response from others and our research led me to believe that YES! There is very much a need and a place for someone with the talents Jim has with cars. Too make a long story short I have decided to be the guy that helps Jim get back into business doing what he loves to do and what he does best “Tune cars”, something he has been doing for 15 years now.
Jim’s new business (our new business) is called SWTuning.com and will be 100% operational performing performance upgrades and tuning cars by May 1st. This is a huge investment for me (Time & Money) to start up SWTP here in OKC, but I believe once everyone in the region becomes familiar with Jim and his work that he will be plenty busy. I hope this also becomes a place for all of you local guys to go to have your performance needs taken care of rather than going to Dallas, Alabama, etc.
I guess you can say I am like the guy who bought the Remington electric shaver company once he tried the product he was so impressed he bought the company.
Please visit Jim’s present web site (SWTuning.com) and give me some feed back about what you think. I am really excited (and scared) about this and hope that I will run into many of you at the shop whether you’re just stopping by or coming in to improve the performance of your car or truck.
