I do eventually want a Fast 102 and throttle body and mabey put a 150 shot on it. But first on the list is get some tires and clutch at some point. I basicly want this car to run solid 11s and high 10s on spray if I go that route. I think for this summer I am done for mods, this cam and tune taped the bank for mod money! Gonna be fun on stock tires I am hopping I can pull off some lower 12s on them though. The car is a beast on the highway, it gets rubber at 50mph even without a tune on it!

I recommend Fast Motorsports (FMS) out of Woodstock, IL. I have experience with with both FMS and Speed Inc. Speed Inc was a terrible experience and I will never go there again as long as FMS is around. I got excellent customer service at FMS, very poor at Speed Inc. FMS has MUCH better pricing then Speed Inc. In my experience and others I know personally, tuning service at FMS has been much better then Speed Inc and A LOT cheaper pricing.
I've spoke with many local people that have had experience at both Speed Inc and Fast Motorsports and there's always been one general thing in common, EVERY single one has said they perfer Fast Motorsports. FMS is hands down the best LSx tuner shop in the Chicagoland area.

From face to face conversations with many people via Chicagoland meets/get-togethers, I've honestly heard many more negative things about Speed Inc then positive from their past customers. Almost, if not all, of them were not completely satisfied. Idk how many of their past customers you've actually talked to face to face, but I have quite a few.

This is pretty much what every past customer says about Fast Motorsports. I haven't heard not one bad thing about that shop, EVER.

I personally know a good amount of people that go there. I also go to the open house ever year witch is always packed. Not saying that there is noone with problems with speed inc just saying this is first I have heard of it. Any rate OP sounds like you have plenty of good options around the Chicago land area. Let us know how it turns out
