Default Who for a tune?

So I have a 2012 l99 camaro that I'm about to add just ARH headers and a CAI intake for now, and in the future 3.9 gears and eventually a cam. I was planning in going with just a mail order tune for now for the headers and since the tranny seriously needs a tune. I was going to go with Jannetty but after reading the beware of Jannetty thread I am rethinking that.

I am not picky between mall order or dyno for now but once I do the other work I'll want a dyno, but I don't want to spend too much now since it is only temporary unless I'll get some sort of discount on future work. I am located on Long Island NY and don't want to travel too far. The shame is Kaltech was located 2 miles from my house before he closed up shop and I've heard nothing but good things about him

I'm extremely satisfied with my Jannetty tune and upgrades.

no on JRE...especially if you are in NY...hit up NewEra in Rochester, NY or ECS in NJ. Mail order tune options...GPI, Livernois, or FSP.

New Era is way too far from him. Probably 6-8 hrs. ECS would be the closest for you. Mail order I agree with grocerygetter.

I know you have Vette Doctors on Long Island but haven't heard of anyone going to them

Try Vette doctors. They are under new ownership.

I'm considering giving vette doctors a call, but have heard that it can be difficult to get an appointment with them if you have anything other than a vette.

I emailed American Racing Headers with some questions I had about their setup and while I was at it I asked them who they would recommend for a tune and they said John at JTM Motorsport who is located in the same building as them. Has anyone heard of them? I tried searching on google and didn't come up with much besides their website.

I just got in contact with Brian from Kaltech, he still does tunes in Ronkonkoma, I'm going to have him do it for me.
