Turbo Tune on Whisper Deluxe by Da Tuna
« on: June 25, 2008, 06:01:38 AM »
I received the gun this morning!!!! It is everything I expected and MORE!!! First of all the whole procedure took 6 days!!
It takes longer to receive a tin of pellets from most sites!!! Secondly, you answered EVERY e mail this ball buster sent you,
at least 2 a day, within an hour!! I could go on and on bro, but I'll be quick and to the point. It was an absolute pleasure
dealing with you, the workmanship is second to none, I had a good gun, Gamo Whisper Deluxe, now I have an outstanding gun!!
I've gained almost 200 FPS, the cocking action used to sound and feel like there was sand and pebbles grinding around in there.
Now it is like butter!!! The trigger is almost too good to be true!! Bob, you took a mid level springer and turned it into a top
notch, bad ass weapon!!! Thanks so much!!
I shoot with about 6 or 7 guys. Mostly Gamo or Diana's. They literally don't know what to say!! Once they take a couple
of shots with mine, it's hard to get it out of their hands!!!!

Thanks Bill!! I'll be around often, with a ton of dumb questions!!! I'll tell ya bro, I was really impressed with the Tuna. I thought I was shooting a really nice, accurate, powerful rifle. I just got my gun back today, and It feels like heaven!!!! I must have put 400 pellets through it!! What a difference!! He puts heart and soul into his work!! Couldn't be more satisfied!! I just ordered a Whisper VH today! I am not even opening the box, it's going straight to the fish!! Thanks again for the welcome Bill!!!

I too have a had a CDT tune on my Hunter Elite and the cocking effort was greatly reduced, the trigger pull dropped to 1.7 pounds, the over-all efficiency of the gun improved drastically and the velocity improved several foot-pounds.  I can't agree more...  Bob does fabulous work!

I was wondering if the Turbo Tune made the Whisper quieter?  I just got my Whisper last week and I'm very happy with it, I just wanted a little more on the quiet side.  I've already installed the trigger and that made a HUGE difference!  That was the best money I've spent in a long time.

Thanks for any info.

Mr K, I bought 2 Whisper Deluxes on the same day. My son and I put about 1,000 pellets through both. I then sent mine to Bob for Turbo and GRT. First of all when my son and I shoot together I never even get to touch my gun! Not only is cocking smoother and soooo much easier, not only did it gain just about 200 fps, not only did it lose almost all it's kick, it is over 50% quieter!!! There is absolutely no spring twang!!! My son says it perfectly, he's 16. It sounds like the gun is a dud firecracker when it goes off. Like a little poof. If you are standing a small distance from me you won't hear the gun. The kick is so small you can watch the hit through the scope after you shoot. I am completely satisfied bro. It's the best cash I spent. I just bought a Shadow Fox, mainly cause the Whisper VH will be on back order till Dec probably, and just sent it to Bob before I even opened the box. I could go on and on, but you won't believe how much quieter the Whisper is after it is Turbo Tuned. Don't forget the GRT!!! 1.9 lb. trigger pull is indescribable!!! And I am not getting paid for this dude, I paid full price on both guns!!!! Am sending my son's next week, kid's gettin on my nerves!!!!!!

Wow...I am so excited to get my Hunter Elite back from Charlie I can barely sit still!  Even though I haven't finished the process yet, I'll reiterate what everyone is saying...WHAT A GUY!!!!  His emails are frequent and informative, and he answers all of mine, which are usually full of dumb questions, very quickly and fully.  I already have a GRT-III and of course I haven't spent a better $30.  Ever.  And, if the delivery time on the GRT is any indication, I'll be shooting a new rifle in no time!  His is truly a model of how to run a business.

Turbo Tune, soon, very soon.

The trigger is insane!  

Hopefully by the end of the month.
