Arun at Champion is one of the best tuners around and tunes driveability along with the use of dyno. Redline is closed.

Arun is one heck of a tuner! He did a great job on my Camaro and really takes the time focus on driveability! I wouldnt go anywhere else.

Wade tuned my car on site and took the time to make sure it was right. I can't see why they would send the car out when the dyno is right there.

What kind of car needed to be tuned? Was it LSx or something a little different like an LT1, etc? Maybe that was the reason?

Redline is now called Maximum Performance. They still tune everything and anything. I don't know what your friend was trying to tune but I've seen everything in that shop. Old school, new school, even stuff inbetween.

Arun no longer tunes out of Champion, he tunes on his own now out of Cambridge and Waterloo.

He also does more than tuning-building cars just like his own-from headers to all out supercharger builds.

His Z06 is the best billboard of his tuning and building skills.

You can find him on the Corvette Forum.
