The problem I have now, is that my truck is AWD. I can't dyno tune unless I have an AWD dyno. I'm not able to shut my AWD off.
EDIT: If I knew what I was doing, I could dyno tune at FTW Tuning in Eugene. They have an AWD dyno. They're a Subaru shop.

I think English Racing had an awd dyno at one time, not sure if they still do or not. They're known for DSM's but I think Lucas is pretty good with EFILive software, its not HPTuners but I think he has at least tuned LS platforms before. They are located in Camas, close to Vancouver.

I haven't seen him since around 2007. No idea what he's up to. I doubt he'd even recognize me. It's not like we were close friends or anything. LOL
That Cummins swapped Chevy he had was pretty freaking amazing. I think it was over 1000 foot pounds of torque and just rolled black smoke down I5. LOL He used it to tow his race car.

When I was at English for a dyno event a couple years ago he still had the AWD/4x4 dyno setup and at that time, he wasn't in Camas. The shop was off 112th in the same complex as Charlie's Bar & Grill.

You guys must be REALLY out of the local circle.....Lucas owns a 09+ CTS-V currently and is out of Camas. Its lightly modded and he has been fiddling with different kinds of set-ups for it.

Wow this took me back I used to go to PIR with a few friends and Lucas when all he did was work on DSMs out in Camas. That was back in 03-05. I haven't talked to any of those guys in years!

Well, I sent him an email using the form on the website.
His reply.
Didn't really answer my AWD dyno question. Those are impressive numbers, I guess. LOL. I'm wanting to be in the 700hp neighborhood. LOL.

Do you have an AWD dyno or any experience with tuning LS based engines? I
have hptuners software and can do basic tuning. I'm looking for a
professional's opinion on the tune. I'd just need some dyno time and your
experience.
Thanks Lucas,
Justin

Justin,
We have quite a lot of experience tuning GM based cars. Lucas has as 09 CTSV that runs 11.1@126mph and we have done all the work and tuning on it here. Still
We have done quite a few Z06's/GTO's and more recently tuned a few turbo 5.3L cars. One that comes to mind is my roommates that actually made 587whp through a TH400 transmission. That equates to almost 700whp through a 5/6 speed. The car trapped 132mph at the track and it is in a 69 fire bird which isnt the lightest car out there
So yes i would say we have experience with them. Most people think all we know are Imports..
Lucas likes EFILive and would rather work that that.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
Myles
