Default Local Tune 2008 5.3

I have a 2008 5.3 V8 Trailblazer and I am looking to get a small tune to it. I just want to remove the TM and make the shifts a little firmer. No need to dyno and this will be my daily driver and it will never see the track.

Does anyone know of someone in the New England area that can tune a 2008 5.3 V8?

John

I already did Marco but Don doesn't have the software to do the 2008 model year yet.

I have had Don tune all my other cars so he was the first man I went to.

I haven't upgraded to 06+ yet. For the little interest it's not worth the $$ yet since I like buying all licenses at once.
