Default where to get a tune in or around northern ohio

I live in north central ohio and was wondering where I can get my car tuned?? Should I send the pcm out or take it to a shop and get it done on a dyno??

Also what does this cost to get done? I have heard that it can get quite pricey..

What city are you located? And depending on mods, a mail order tune maybe the most appropriate for you.

Place called GMR speed, i think they are on this board. They used to host Thunder in the North. Not sure if their name is the same anymore, used to be Rath Motorsports.

I thought they were still in business, ive seen some vids of their shop dyno not to long ago, coulda been old tho?

I know Solomon (sp) is in Cincinnati. Might seem to be a bit of a drive, but he also offers mail order tunes, and I believe that he will rent you the data cable if you've got a laptop, so you can datalog, and he can e-mail you tunes.

Another vote for BigShot. Brian has tuned my 385 twice at Bigshot and they did a great job. Nice guys and they know what there doing.

I'm in the same boat as you Pen, I'm around the Fostoria area and I looked at CRT in Norwalk but they are primarily Mustang tuners. I have been thinking about talking to Brian about dyno tuning. I know there is another place in Toledo but they pretty much cater to the import segment.....
