James is the man nothing but the best he helps you with everything step by step keeps track with ur package just makes everything a smooth process
James has been so extremely helpful with this purchase for me and my husbands 25 Honda Type R! We are both beyond happy with the results and he exceeded our expectations with the tune! Having James there to give us advise on our next purchases for the future and walk us through the tune has been such an amazing experience that we will forever be customers. James is certainly the blue print for this company and we are so thrilled to see what the future holds with our next purchases. Thank you so much vtec slayer and especially James!
Highly recommend James. He kept me updated the whole time.
Let me say James went above and beyond make sure my issues were resolved. I had a jailbreak and cloning for my fl5 and my used flashpro was not connecting to my vehicle even with it being unlocked. We then spoke on the phone and was offering to pay for the shipping to return the ecus to figure out why it was not connecting to my flashpro. After a few hours I figured out I did not have the ignition on for the flashpro because I had the accessory mode on which caused it not to lock to my car. I will be using this company in the near future for other goodies.
If you’re even slightly considering a jailbreak service through VTEC slayer (James) then expect nothing short of incredible. Every single comment you read before this is an understatement of how personable, knowledgeable, and customer service oriented this experience was for me. This level of service is hard to find across any industry let alone the car industry. This here ladies and gentleman is the white glove service of the car/modding world. You come for an interest in wanting to mod your card and stay for what is arguably the best experience I’ve ever had as a customer. Experience 10/10, mod 10/10, having the pleasure to work with James, priceless.
