Picked up my first Z28 this summer, having a lot of fun with it and want to start adding some more mods. Currently has LT's, ORY, catback, lid, various suspension and brake stuff. I'm planning on doing a cam swap either this winter or upcoming spring and I was wondering who the most popular local tuners are? Speed Inc seems to be one of the few big name shops in the area that I can find, any other shops or individuals you could recommend? Thanks for the help,

Eric

 

Straightline in new Lenox comes to mind.

 

Straightline x 2

 

Thanks for the replies, gonna check them out too.

 

Very happy with my Speed Inc. tune but there's a new place called Late
Model Throttle on Prarie St. (Waukesha's southwest side)...haven't heard
good or bad about them yet

 

Thanks for all the input I was also told to check out West Bend Dyno, anybody been there?

 

AMS in West Chicago

 

Can usually not go wrong with Jim at Speed Inc.

 

x2 They treated me great!

 

Same here, very detailed and great customer service. Talk to Larry, he'll set you up.

 

x3 for AMS

Larry set me up nicely on 2 dyno tunes and I don't have one complaint. Both tunes provided excellent street mannors and driveability!

 

west bend dyno is good with some good knowledgeable guys. late model throttle also seems good but are extremely hard to get a hold of when you need something.

 

Hey there... are you in SE WI or NE IL?

I spoke to Jim at Speed Inc. and he is great! He is an excellent guy and he will return phone calls and emails promptly. So if you in IL.. then by all means.. I would also recommend Speed Inc.

If you are in SE WI on the other hand.... then I would recommend Norm at Westech in Silver Lake, WI....

He does it all.. and when I say he does it all.. he does it all... every brand... turbo's... superchargers... retro fit.... he's even done special projects for GM and Chrysler as well.

He is super cool and he does fantastic work...

Good luck...

I ended up going to west bend dyno. Got some 3.90 gears installed and a tune. Should be picking up the car either today or tomorrow. So far everything has gone very smoothly and they've been very helpful with any questions.

Do you have any pics of the car? What part of WI are you located?

 

Nah I don't have any pics, I'll have to get some when I get it back. I'm in Milwaukee btw, near the airport.

 

That's interesting, i live close to the airport too. I'm by Layton and Nicholson. Just a couple of buildings from the St Francis Police Station. If you're up for it, lets meet up one of these days. I'll introduce you to a couple of other F-Body owners that i usually cruise with.

 

Cool, we might have already run into each other before then. Heres a picture I got after leaving WBD today http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fb...type=1&theater

 

Nice car. I don't think i've seen the car up here before. I'll PM you my number; text me anytime you want to cruise around. I'm all about having as much fun with my car before the snow finally arrives

 

im in milwaukee too but downtown for school. id be up for a cruise/meet up whenever since there is no snow here yet
