Who's tuning your LT1?

Man, I am having a hard time getting my car tuned. The dude that normally would do it doesn't have access to the dyno so I'm kinda stuck. Anyone else tune around here?

www.pcmforless.com here

Not too happy with it, I ditched a custom street tune for it from the advice of ppl on this board, and i actually lost a tenth and 2 MPH.

I plan on getting a comprehensive DYNO TUNE in the spring by www.ls1speed.com

Being in Texas, how can you not be able to find a place to dynotune your car?

PCMforless.com and the tune is right on the money. A/F is practically perfect, and thats on the first try. My only complaint is I have to get another pcm sent out because he forgot to delete the codes for no cats and no 02 sims.

The best guy I know of, who in my opinion is a tuneing god is Vince (aka) Spraytheway from canada. did some absolutely amazing stuff with a PCM and a laptop. Best in the business.

TunerCAT for OBD1 is the shiznit. I have mostly been oing my own. When I went to the dyno with my custom SOTP tuning, my a/f only needed very minor adjustment. It as at 12.6-13.0 the whole range, after the 1st run, and a quick PE fix, I was steady 12.7 the whole way.
