Default who is your computer tuner?

and what can all be tuned and deleted? off the top of my head.... Air, Egr, vats?, O2 (but plan to keep them) ... and can be tuned for bolt on such as long tubes and what else? trying to refresh my memory after a 3 year hiatus of abandoning my Camaro

Ion "Madtuner" has handled a bunch of tunes for me from customer, friends and my own personal rides....
With that said I also have seen good results with
Moe Bailey
Solomon
PCM4 LESS
Ed Wright
So as you see I just named a few off the top that have these Lt1s in the bag

I do my own stuff. I made the mistake of having a well known tuner do it when we made the switch to fast. lets just say never again will some one other than me touch it.
