Default Basics Done

Right now while its cold I want to get the basic computer tuneouts done. For example...

rear 02 delete
fan 1 and fan 2 temperature turn on changed
air/smog delete
speed limiter increased
rev limiter increased
skip shift deleted
possibly vats deleted

Any reccomendations on a company to do this? And what about cost and turn around time. Thanks Chris

Trifecta, PCMforless, or any one of the sponsors that offer comp tuning, Speedinc, and Texas speed I know will do this for like 150-250 just look around.

^^^ 250 sounds a little much for that little work. i would not pay anything over 150. most hand held tuners can get those things done for you.

Do you have the mods to support these tunes? Like headers and such? If not you aren't going to see any real benefits to doing them
