Yeah I hear they suck. Best place I have been is not local, your probably going to have to go outta state. The only other person is here is Gomer, he's on here and www.bhamfbody.com. He does tuning as well and they usually dyno up at Walker Dyno outside of Birmingham. Other wise I would recommen Jeff Creech in Durham, NC www.carolinaautomasters.com

Who in Montgomery does LS1 tuning?

Which tuning software do they use?

LOL, Scott = Gomer and Gomer = Scott. That phone number isn't good anymore, PM me if you need anything. I've been scaling back on the car stuff the past few months, but I still tune 2-3 days a week.

I give Scott a big thumbs up. He knows his stuff, and as a bonus, he's a really nice guy. Highly recommended that you get a tune from him.

He used HPTuners on my heap.

black98, ATCFLYBOY02, and Mud, you ought to all get together and make it worth Scott's while to come down here to Pro Performance and tune y'alls cars. I'm sure that the crew over there would consider cutting you all a deal on dyno time.

Hello Allen,

That is a great idea wish someone had thought of it sooner. I talked with Scott today and planning on going up Saturday for a tune and Bo White TB. Scott said today he had 4 ported TB's and they were going fast. Anyone interested should give him a PM. By the way not saying Per Pro here in Montgomery did'nt do a good job the work seemed to be fine they just had numerous problems with Diablo.

You'll like the TB and the tune, I assure you. Scott picked up 6hp and 9lb/ft of torque for me, just tweaking the AFR. That's not including the work he did with the timing before we even strapped the car to the dyno.

Like I told Danny it's not very cost effective to buy every tuner out there on the market.I went with hp tuners,and that's what I'm going to stick with.When the shop get's bigger I'll start trying to do more, till then I'll do hp and people that have there own tuner.I'm willing to work with anybody or help out any way I can.

Andy,

I understand completley as I said there are no problems with the work you did. My problem is with Diablo. When I bought my preditor they indicated they would update it at any time for a minimum fee but if no one can get in touch with them, and several people tried, then how do you get this new tune??? Anyway thanks to you guys and the guys at Seco and Childs for trying to help out.

I talked to gomer today and think he is willing to set up a tune day here in Montgomery. Andy @ performance pro said he might be agreeable. Just need enough guys tuning to make it worth while for everyone. I tuned today with gomer so don't really need tune now, but if you can get some guys interested you should contact Andy and gomer it would be a great deal! Also check out Andy's rides and shop really nice.
