Sniper or Jestr ECU tune (or something in Orlando)

I want to go with someone in Orlando. If I get Sniper tuning and Mini updates my ECU, Sniper will re-map for free (because I'm here). I would imagine Jestr would do the same. Anyone have one of these or know of better in Orlando, FL?

Thanks

You want to be careful with these "canned" tunes. They can actually cause more problems than perfromance gains. Only real trustworthy tune is a custom dyno tune.
