Default Looking for CTS-V dyno tune time

I live in the greater Philadelphia area and Im looking to get a dyno tune done for my 2005 CTS-V. The car has the Z06 LS6 motor in it along with LT's and Catback, CAI. I will be installing a Futral F-11 cam (228/230 576/595 113lsa) the day before the dyno tune. I emailed Harris Speed Works and was told they do nothing but F and Y body regardless of the fact that my car is a LS engine car. So Im looking to get this done, and looking for any help I can get with finding a damn good tuner, thanks.

Thumbs up

Cartek Racing (www.cartek.net) in Garwood, NJ (roughly an hour and a half from Philly) has dyno tuned/worked on numerous CTS-Vs ranging from cold air intake/cat back cars all the way on up to heads/cam and supercharged cars.

Mikey I was hoping you would chim in on this one, I have heard some good things about your work. Are you using the dyno over at Phoenix Perf. for doing the dyno tunes? Anyway shoot me a pm with all the info on getting the car over to you. RIght now Im still in Iraq and will not be home till mid month, otherwise I would call you and talk about things.

I will be sure to put up the chart when its all done. Any guess on what it will make? The F-11 should be a good DD if the tune is spot on. Thanks

Sent you a PM, I thought that was odd to say no to some LS tuning. None the less I sent you some info. Thanks
