Default Best Mail Order LT1 Tune

I have my engine out of the car for my swap, I figured I would delete the AIR and EGR while it is out and easy.
I want to get a decent tune done for a reasonable cost.
Any suggestions

If you stick with the 2 big ones you really can't go wrong. I have Ion's tune because it was cheaper/easier to order way back when.

I've read through a lot of threads about mail order tunes and it seems the general consensus is to go with pcmforless or Ion/Madz28.

Pcmforless seems to have a lot more people that have had issues, but I'm sure they do more business, hence, why more people complain. A lot of people have had great luck with them, too.

Professional dyno-tuners have told me to go with Ion over pcmforless, and I've seen many claims that his tune couldn't even be improved upon with a dyno in many cases.

Well im running the quarter at 107 with minimal mods

might have got lucky and got a factory strong runner or he gave me a good tune.

In the time to do all that, you could have easily answered the question. I don't get this board. You can read the title and know that it's a search topic, yet you come in and say it anyway. Just stay out of it.

Also, 99.99999999% of ALL threads in this forum are repeat. Should we all say search for everything? This forum would die. It would be an archive, not a message board.

Give the "do a search" BS a rest already. Answer the question or STFU.
