Default Vortech Tuner, Vortech guys inside.

I installed a Gtrim kit on my car and was planning on having the guy who did my mailorder tune retune for the SC. The problem is he is no longer returning emails. Does anybody who has a Gtrim kit w/ aftercooler have a handheld that they arenot using they would sell?

I installed the aftercooled Vortech kit on my car. I would highly recommend spending your money on a dyno tune if at all possible.

Just drive the car to a shop and get a dyno tune. your not going to hurt anything. Just stay under 2500rpm.

Post your location and then people can recommend someone local to you who can tune it properly.
