Default anyone ever go to east side performance? Are they good for tuning?

I am getting a t-rex cam put in and I am going to need a VERY good tune. Only place around me that does LS1's is east side performance. Are they any good and do they know what they are doing? If it comes down to it, i'll travel to NJ and go to SLP.

yup post this in the eastern section. me and a lot of other eastside guys are there. nogo and esp are some of the best tuners around. they got a great rep and are very easy to deal with and a bunch of nice guys. there shop car is an ls1 and i believe it runs 9's w/ a nogo tune so you be the judge!

I had my tune done by NoGo and I'm in AR if that tells you anything about ESP. and I ran a 237/242 .595/.595 112 cam so only slightly smaller than the REX but he made it very driver friendly with stock gears

N0g0 does an excellent job tuning my car. My car runs great and he got it to make great power on a very safe tune. Plus you wont find nicer guys to deal with.

Highly Recomended sponsor -------->

East Side has a very good reputation.

But if you were actually going to travel to NJ then go to CARTEK...I certainly would not go to SLP for tuning, or anything else for that matter probably.

LT1LS1 is correct,IF your gonna travel down to NJ I'd call CARTEK.
They are very good,Julio can tune a fish.

But your near ESP and IMO NoGo is the BEST tuner I've seen for LS1 Edit.My car idles perfectly,runs great and made 410RWHP threw an A4/12-Bolt w/heads and smallish 224 cam.

Kevin/Nogo worked on my tune for 6 hrs setting PT shifts til I was happy,Drove around and set LU til I was happy and played with the tune til he himself was completely satisfied.Thats dedication and I wont let anyone else touch my PCM ever again,he's a nice guy to boot.

JMHO....
