Default Ls1 tuner in pa?

I've searched and found a couple but they were older threads so my question is were is there a good place to get my car tuned this spring after I work it over? I see rapid performance is by Lancaster and very recommended. Any others? I'm from Dubois pa, near state college pa and Pittsburgh. I'll be doing ms3, intake mani, full exhaust, tb, possibly head work, and some other small things I don't know how is or if Ill want to make the 4.5 hour drive to rapid.

I haven't ill check that out I live in a town with to exits on i80 so the trip would be a little easier to go to ohio. I just am lookin for around a 3 hour tops drive after you figure in dyno time lunch etc that's a whole day. I also don't want anything to happen and break down 4 hours from home

I would say Race Proven Motorsports who posted above me would be a great choice. They did the heads/intake and tune for me and I couldn't be happier. I am in Harrisburg so I had a shorter drive but it was well worth it.

Mike@Rapidmotorsports.com

Send Mike an email he is local in PA and can help you out with your tune.

He does fantastic work, he has made some amazing power from my ZR1 and a friends CTSV and soon to be tuning another friends CRUZ.

I highly recommend him and if your close to County Corvette you can meet me next week Thursday to see him in action.

My advice about getting the car to these tuners is to get AAA and tow it if you can it is free for the first 100 miles and if you go primere it is 200 miles.

Send me a PM and we can talk if you want
