KDMax tuner

Does anyone how a person becomes a KDMax tuner? There’s seem to be a lack of tuners in the Northern VA area and lots of potential customers. Thnx

 

It’s easy. You found TacomaWorld.. you should be able to search for KDMAx and find their website and your answer in like 20% of the time it took for me to type this.

Thanks
Sorry to have bothered you

 

I am also in NOVA and interested in this. I know there is a guy who goes two or three hours south of me but wandered if there is someone closer.

Tried searching before but apparently not smart enough.

 

Two tuners, one region. Fight! Fight! Fight!

 

I couldn't find anything on my own either

Just seems like a hot market with no tuners

 

Tuning on someone else's truck and getting paid for it would be considered a business. Consider business liability insurance if something goes wrong.

 

^^This. You accidentally brick someone's ECU and it's not going to be cheap to make it right. Also investigate whether you need a business license in your location and what the insurance requirements are, if any.

 

Honestly, this is the one thing that keeps me from doing it. You're taking on a huge liability.

 

Reach out to @PapaRee or @TWTaco and see if they could use another tuner in your area.

 

That's what waivers are for.

 

A decent attorney will tell you most liability waivers are not worth the paper they are printed on. They are basically made to deter the person signing the waiver from pursuing any sort of recourse. Additionally, would you let someone work on your truck who made you sign a waiver that said if I screw up your truck you won't hold me liable?

 

That depends on how much research I've done and what they are doing. We all mod our trucks in our own way and do what we are comfortable with.

 

Yeah, I get it, but even with waivers there can be lawsuits, lawyers, and being dragged to court. A waiver isn't ironclad (though of course should be vetted by a lawyer before being used and lawyers are never wrong). For me personally, it's just not worth the risk of having to buy someone a new truck. It may be for some, though, and I will gladly buy tuning services from them!

 

yeah same here, worried about the chance of bricking the ecu. "9 times out of 10 there's no issue"

 

PM Dave @TWTaco, he does the "vetting" and we make sure that we don't have any other KDMax tuner in the area. We are a loyal group and never add anyone without okaying it with everyone that is in that area.
Dave will get you all the info you need an answer your questions.

 

I was looking in to tuning a few months ago. Closest is Ellicott City, MD or a Guy in the NJ/NYC area. So its at least an hour or more for me drive to someone. Not convenient but I will try to work it out sometime.

 

For anyone looking, the KDMAX group site was moved last week: http://www.kdmaxprotuning.com -or- Facebook: @kdmaxprotuning
