I'm hoping thats me... as I think I'm the only guy in West Chester that tunes these cars haha.

If you are interested in coming we have night and weekend hours. In addition, if it is already tuned and looks pretty good AFR wise, we'll just charge for dyno time ($65 for 3 pulls). If it needs adjusting it would be $300 for a dyno tune. I can read the tune and compare it against a stock file and tell you if it has been tuned before - no charge for that.

I live in MD and I go to RPM. Fran is the best, well worth the trip. There are some shops in MD that can do it but I wouldn't trust them changing the oil in my Honda. Save yourself a headache and go see Fran.

350 bolt on 500 cam/HC/ NA setup and 600 Forced induction.... 250 retune. These are all dyno tunes also.

We have tuned over 1500 LSX cars since we have been in business for alittle over 6 years now. Price deff should never be a factor when looking for a tune.
