Speed Density Turbo Tune Upstate NY?

I need to find a good dyno shop to have a car I recently bought tuned. I am in the Albany area. Vehicle is a 2004 GTO with a 5.3l shortblock, 317 heads, LS6 cam with a custom frontmount Turbonetics GTK1000 and meth injection and 3 bar map

Car is on a conservative street tune now and I want to get a good speed density dyno tune done. Any recommendations? I have a shop semi local called Coppola Motorsports but have seen a few horror stories on forums involving them.

Recently bought the car and it is running a conservative street tune with 12 degrees of timing. Needs a dyno tune to add more timing etc... Also has an alky control progressive meth kit that is hooked up but not tuned in.

What about this place? ###NON SPONSOR LINK REMOVED###
I've dealt with Kevin before with purchasing parts and he is a great guy.

Then that's the place to go. A lot of time convenience is not the best option.

We tune a lot of cars from your area but it's a drive.

According to my GPS, your place is only 3hrs away from me. I thought it was further. I will probably be in contact in the near future.

How much do you charge for a FI speed density tune?

I say New Era or Slowhawk. I am on this board all the time, I have seen nothing but great things come out of both shops. I had my car tuned at New Era 3 times, car runs great.
