Default Dyno tune in or around New England?

I bit the bullet and bought the turbo, Need to give the Vette a lesson.

Having a hard time finding a tuner for LT1 cars. This is a mild H/C car on s stock cube remanned, no smog crap, deleted Cat, AIR, EGR, ect. 375 crank according to engine builder. Add the new Remote MP70 turbo set up with Tial red (6psi spring) running through an ebay air to air, I should add about 150hp more. BTW, Car is a stalled 3200, A4 with 3.23.

Just got it back together (at least under the hood) but waiting on the turbo kit, after install I want to bring it directly to get it tuned so I am not pulling another engine out.

Suggestions??

Also should I keep the 3.23 for now or upgrade to 3.90 (recommended by a buddy)? I have the cash now but with the new power do I need the different gear, anything to gain or lose?

Called him a few months back, he said if I had the cable and software he would tackle it but truthfully there were better options then him. I took that as he had no interest.

By the way, you still on the Cape?
