Quintin Brothers up in burlington area can do this. But I have heard hit or miss things about them. If its a fairly simple setup I would give them a shot..... but for something F/I or a giant cam I would load it up and take it to Don at Slowhawk performance, probably one of the best guys in the north east

If you want it done right the first time just bring it to Slowhawk. No b.s. just tuning done right the first time.

If its already SD tuned and was fine before I would look into something mechanical, but it could be a MAP sensor or 02's, depends on how it was tuned. You have anybody around you who can scan it with HP tuners? Just a quick log session will give you a good idea of whats going on. I can scan the thing for ya if your close to the Springfield/Rutland area.
