Default Tuner in the Peoria Il. area?

I have a 5.3 liter w/Radix and will soon be installing meth injection, WCCH Stage 2 heads and a TR cam, probably 220/224 and Pacesetter long headers.

I also have Intercepter logging guages and a wb Dynojet Commander af uage. Have a laptop but haven't yet made a choice between HP and EFI Live and I don't know squat about tuneing.

I'll be neediing a tune and I want a dyno tune or a tune by an experienced tuner who would ride with me in the truck and tune it that way.

Can anyone recommend anyone to do a tune in the Peoria or Quad City Il. area? Actually I'm in Galesburg Il... about 1/2 way between Peoria and the Quad Cities.

There is a place in Peoria called RT Automotive that advertises on the Speed Channel that they do all performance wrenching including chassis Dyno tuneing. Anyone have any information about them?

Thanks for your help. Jim

Thanks for the replies.

I'm amazed that in the whole downstate area.... B-ton/Normal, Peoria, Quadcities, nobody does good Dyno tuning.
