I had board member Family Sedan (Tony) tune my car, and it runs pretty damn good! I like the fact that he has nothing to gain by BS'ing me. I've heard rumors of some shops purposely tuning cars "slow" to help sell parts. Either way, he's cheaper and does a great job.

Same here. Tony did a great job getting my car running really well. I found a vaccuum leak after he tuned it, and he retuned it for free. The car never bogs and moves out pretty well for what it is. I had a base tune from an "unnamed company", and found out they didnt really even do anything. All they did was take out VATS and raise my idle. I definatly recommend Tony.

hurry up and get that cam so I can really make your C5 wiked. lol jk, just let me know when you want it done. I know someone in dekalb who does tuning, I'm not sure if he has the capibilities to do corvettes though. Madz28 is the name of the guy, he tuned my car, and i think importpatrolws6's from the boards as well. he has free updates for a period of time on his tuning too. my car made 360/360 only spining to 5800rpm and going rich at the end. it's going back to him to be leaned out then going back to the dyno once I get an underdrive pully. hoping for 390 cam only in an A4.
