if you want to take your car to a speed shop, you should look into precision motorsports of Florida in Odessa. They are a very talented shop who does builds and tunes.

I got tuned at RevXtreme, and am happy with the tune. I bought a roll bar from Precision once, I liked both shops, well I haven't seen Precisions new place, that was when they were back in Hudson. Good people at either place.

I don't know. I got my tune about a year ago I think, I think Chris tuned it, I think he was the only one there that tuned LT1s. I picked up 7rwhp over my mail order tune and it ran much better throughout the whole RPM range. I've only got a hotcam setup, so I'm sure Madz28's mail order tune was dialed in pretty good to start with.

yeah Chris was the tuner that attempted to tune mine what a joke paid $500 for less than an hour process and dyno pulls, SES light still on, bucking and surging (stalling) with a 232/234 cam had it retuned and never looked back.

picked up quite a bit of power too.
