I would only go to Intense if your looking for a new engine. I took a grand am there for a tune and it was never right after that. The only place that I know of here in Columbus is IPS. I know there are others so I'll check around and get back to you on it later today. Vector might be closer for you anyways your up north right?

yeah i should have added that i will never take my car to them. i know Mike MPGEagle got their mail order tune and he likes it. i plan on doing the dyno tune down the road. for some reason their site is down right now but i know they specialize with GM vehicles.

There's also a place called Mike Ward Racing they charge $500 and IPS charges $350 for a dyno tune. They are both well known here in Columbus and have a lot of experience with the LSx engines.

Awesome thank you!! Now I have more available choices to decide on. Ill prob eventually take a visit to everyone and then decide which one to trailor car to. LMAO right now Im kinda workin backwards cuz Ive been collecting parts b4 Ive found car! I thought I had one till I found out it had some damage and I wont deal w/ previous work done to a car. So Im still on the lookout for a undamaged car. Ive found 2 more to take a look at. Ive even gone as far as finding spare motor to build and STILL looking for trans to beef up w/ hardened parts. My "very hopefull" goal is for another mid 12 sec daily driver!
