Ion discontinues So I was planning on having my pcm tuned after I do headers and ORY and was going with Ion but it seems he is discontinuing LT1s. I know of pcm4less but they seem pretty hit or miss and also Solomon who I have heard good things about. Is there anyone else I'm missing that does a nice tune? Also who would you go with between the two? Only reason I'm asking is because I had no luck finding other tuners besides those from searching.
Madz28 is Ion. Which is funny, I voted Solomon because I thought Madz28 was Solomon. 
Hell at this point I can't even remember who did my mail order tune(Ion or Solomon) back when I was running a hotcam, dynotune only picked up 7rwhp at the time though, so the tune was pretty close I would guess.

My dad has a 94 firehawk with LE1 heads, cc503 cam, kooks LT's, and a 3200 stall converter and we had Ion tune it. For as little as this car has it runs extremely strong. Perfect idle, WOT is pretty manly again for such a mild build. It's kind of a shame he's about to be done tuning these. My vote would be to go ahead and have him do a tune for you.
As far as pcmforless goes we've had mixed results as a family (Dad, brother, and myself). I did a build 5 years ago that was a complete animal...but we had a 383 Trans am with AFR heads and all the other goodies and the pcmforless tune was a Turd. They were hit and miss for us. Brother had a heads and cam 02 Trans am tuned by them that was far less than impressive.

I voted for Ion. I have one of his tunes and have no complaints. I'm thinking of ordering a spare computer and tune from him before he stops but I don't know if it would be a waste of money or not.
I'm running an ion tune too. It's really rich but that's to be expected with a mail order. When I finish the engine build I'll have it tuned at EPS but until then the stock long block will stay on the mail order.
