Default Need a street tuner asap!!!

I need a bad *** street tuner. G-force has tuned my car awesome wot but sucks driving on the street. Car hangs up while I'm driving likes it's in cruise control. When I come to a stop the rpm drops to 300 and then rises to 900-1000. Need help

Call LSX Power Tuning in College Station at (979) 209-0325. The owner's name is Lorenz and he's an LS1Tech board sponsor. He's been tuning my cars for years I've had a lot of people tune my cars across the state, and he by far is the best. I DD'd huge Cammed cars with ease on his tunes so yours should be no problem! He's also close to Houston tell him Jacob referred you with the ls3 vette & turbo silverado.

What sucks is they're cool people never rude but this retune was 150 but it didn't do anything for my drive ability. It's to the point I don't even want to drive the car and it's a weekend car.

Was this a retune fee or dyno time fee?

Chris Delgado at D3PerformaceEngineering street tuned mine last night. Drives like a stock car and I'm almost making 700 to the tires.

Patrick g did my tune and my drive ability is spot on. It's was way off before, I didn't even like driving my truck either. My cold start was so off before i would have to keep giving it gas like a carbed motor till it warmed up and wouldn't idle to save its life, plus he picked up 20 rwhp and 21tq

If you paid $150 for a retune and you weren't happy with it you need to park yourself in their shop until you are. If they can't get it right they owe you $150, simple as that. When LMR tuned my car I drove it around with Joe for about 30 minutes making sure I was happy with it. For $500 I was going to make damn sure that the drivability was the best it could be before I left.

If they drilled your throttle body blade you'll probably need another blade or tb. Can probably braze the old hole. If the RPM is sticking like the cruise control is on its getting too much air. the drop to 300 the back up to 900-1000 sounds like it needs a little more air in the Idle air table. Could be in the timing or fueling also though. Is the car a 6 speed or stalled auto?

I wouldn't jump to burn Gforce w/o knowing the whole deal. The car could have problems other than the tune. If Gforce did all of the work then I would say jump. I am in to see what the deal is once this gets resolved.
