Default Speed lab dyno testing Spring Grove, IL

Hey guys,

I am looking for a dyno tune/ break in on a freshly built ls1, forged internals -4cc valve reliefs, milled and 202/157 valve ls6 heads with a 175 wet shot. I talked to FLP and they are booked for about a month or so and i really can't wait that long. So i was doing some research and came across Speed Lab out of Spring Grove Illinois. The tuner name is Bob and seems to know his stuff doing tunes on a ton of C5/C6's and various other high end sports cars.

I was wondering if anyone has had thier cars tuned there or friends etc..
Please let me know any input or word about this shop or BOB himself (pros/cons).

Thanks again and i'm awaiting a call back form Straightline performance out of New Lenox eventhough it's a good haul from NW burbs of Chicago.


Thanks
Cord

Never heard of them. I'm going to be at Straightline on Monday with my 69 for its first start up.
