Default Great tuner in the midwest?

Im looking for personal recommendations for tuners in the midwest area. My friend is installing a blower on his first gen cts-v soon and we dont really have any great tuners local to us in Northeast nebraska. We would be willing to travel as far as kansas city which is 5hrs away.

If anyone knows of any great tuners in this vicinity, that would be amazing.

Thanks!!

I think Ed Wright is still in Tulsa, fastchip.com. Mike Norris Motorsports in near Indianapolis but that's a bit of a haul for you.

Made the appointment at excessive motorsports in Sioux falls SD. About 2.5hrs north of us. They seem to pump out some badass cars. Thanks for all the recommendations guys!!

Hey Rise - Shane uses HPTuners, right? Know anyone in the Kansas City area that uses EFILive?

Excessive turned out great. They had some awesome cars there. Been in this business for 18+ years. They have an awesome dyno and my friend John got the numbers he was expecting. Basically stock ls6 engine with a Maggie, got 478rwhp out of it. Runs great, idles great, drives smooth as stock. Did a good amount of dyno time and then a test drive on the street. The tuner/ owner Joey spent time with us explainging and answering all our questions. The price was very attractive. Highly recommended.

+1!!!! Currently has tuned the fastest 2014 SS out there as far as I know.

Actually faster than this, but this is the car.

There are several tuners in the KC area, but no idea if they use HP Tuners or EFI Live. Justune and LSxKilr are a couple reputable places you could checkout.
