I went thru Church a few years ago when I had my Honda. Had great experience tuning my hondata, and haven't heard anything bad. Not sure how much experience they have with other setups. Hope this helps.

They should be able to tuned your afc. I went there recently with emanage ultimate & the result is awesome. Only headers back, intake & greddy ultimate, I've total gain 57 rwhp & 64 rwtq. Tuning it self, gain about 15rwhp & 10rwtq.
When you make appointment, tell them specific what mod have you done. If you have heavily mod, they will charge you quite pricey.
Contact person Shawn (owner) & ask him for quote before you roll down to Wilmington.
