I got dyno tuned at straightline for just headers and IMO, it was money well spent. Car gained 15 hp & tq. And the car runs great!
I cant say anything bad or good about FLP because i havent gone there for anything.
Good luck.

I think FLP wants 450 to 550 hundered for a full dyno tune!
dollar for dollar and with the awesome customer service, by that I mean the ease to talk to the guyz, and the Hp and TQ they netted for me and others. I would also recommend Straightline. Just my .02 cents.

I would recommed FLP. The price might be a bit higher, but you get what you pay for, IMO.

Didn't know you were on here too Tracy! Thanks for the referals, it's been greatly appreciated. Had BaldWookie from the Corvette Forum up here on Thursday, now he's already planning on coming back with more parts along with his friend that came up with him.
I was talking to Nick (our owner) this past week about coming out to Florida to visit SCT, we might have to come by and visit if we make the trip.

I have no experience with straightline other than the comments on their great reputation. I did have my H&C formula tuned by FLP which squeezed out 408rwhp out of a stock bottom end car through a moser 9". The drivability greatly impoved as well.
