Default Best tuner in Louisiana?

I'm planning on getting my car tuned within a month after Futral installs my cam and headers. So i'm wondering what is the consensus best tuner in the "Boot"?

Don't know personally, but I've heard alot of good things about Thunder Racing. Will more than likely have them tuning mine later this year.

I have never got work done a Futral but I hear they are very good. Thunder Racing did all of my work it was done right the first time and I will go back for future mods. Just be cause I like my work done all at the same place so there are not confusion. But any of the two are good choice but if you are already at Futral....

What did you put down and how much did it cost you at Thunder Racing?

Since you are buying one of Allan's cam I would get him to tune it. Whoever sells the cam is going to know it the best.

You can expect to pay in the neighborhood of $550 for a Thunder Racing (Geoff) tune.

I am sure Futral & TR are as good as it gets.

I've heard that Allen @ Futral is one of the best hands down from many people. I was told that Thunder is locking the computers after they tune.

TR does a good job on the cars he done mine and i was very satisfied on the way it turned out.The only problem is that he stays busy and it's hard to get hm on the phone.

I second that it might take you months to get it on a dyno over there.
