Eastside did the tuning and the A/F was dead nuts! The car was on the dyno for over 2 hours as we were fighting electrical problems the entire time. These electrical problems were related to the significant amount of aftermarket electrical add ons which caused numerous tuning issues. Even with these issues East Side was able to properly tune the car! The car was on the dyno for at least 10 pulls. We did not need Autotap as we used the GM scanner. If you look at the graph posted it is run #5 - of course the A/f is off - the car was not even half way tuned. As many of you mentioned these guys are easily the most reputable and skilled LS1 guys in New England.

We it aint the dyno as my car has been there and the air fuel was perfect. As far as tuning I wouldnt know. Was this car street tuned before the dyno tune. Was it tuned under normal driving condtions on the street first? What electrical mods does he have? If he has one of those z06 MAF meters they can cause havoc. Even the SLP's can if not tuned right. By the look of the graph hes lean. At WOT hes 13.5 according to the graph. Thats lean. Dean will take care of this, he always does. But as mentioned slowhawk can help as well if you dont want to drive to CT.

After you get your bolt situation fixed.See if Dean will run it again for a backup.I'm sure the #'s will be different,maybe better.

I had mine tunes at the Vette Doctors in Long Island. It was a 900 mile round trip but was well worth it. Carmen is great and does not rush. He spent the better part of the day on mine and the price stayed the same. $299.00 can't beat that price for a dyno tune. The car wouldn't even idle when I got there.... Give them a call if you still have issues.
