Angry S2000 finally here.. Super pissed....

So, my S2000 has finally arrived after over a year of waiting for my car to get to me in Germany. Long story short.. Did ITBs, head gasket blew, had engine rebuilt and tuned, and car shipped to me. Granted that the rebuild and subsequent tuning occured after I left the States for Germany. The builder basically sat on it, and I forced the hand by allowing the POA to run out. This was supposed to be a 60 day job, according to the bulder. Apparently 60 days equals an additional 305 days...Anyway, water under the bridge, right? Nope. I picked up the car yesterday, and the tune is very rough with a bad misfiring at 6K and up. The builder hadn't even really tried to finish the tune, and knew there was some voltage dropping from the CPS at higher RPM. Now I am going with remote tuning since I can't seem to find a tuner who will do AEM V2 and Alpha N tuning. This sucks, becuase I am basically starting from square one. Any, does anyone know of any good AEM V2 tuners in Germany with ITB tuning knowledge? I am also posting this in the engine management forum in hopes someone might respond there.

Don't know anyone in Germany but Leo Van Drie (Van Drie Tuning) in the Netherlands is very, VERY good in what he does. I have a few friends who drove several hours just to have their Honda's tuned by him even though there are several other tuners closer. Unless you're on the other side of Germany it's definately worth the drive. He's more than 3 and a half hours driving away from where I live but he's the only one I'd trust my car with tbh and definately worth a little road trip if ever needed.
