Default Who's the best LS1 Tuner around Joliet, IL to use?

Who's the best LS1 Tuner around Joliet, IL to use? I have a 98 trans am with LS1 with Vortech supercharger and power cooler. How much is a tune on a dyno? My last tune 5 years ago was a very conservative tune, pretty rich and I don't like my Transmission shifts, too hard and it kind of jumps 200RPM each time before it goes into overdrive. I get a "Code" about every 200 miles or so for rich condition..

FAST Motorsports is another option. He tunes out of Deans Performance in Saint Charles.

Mike Norris.........and he's perhaps the best guy in the business to deal with. He'll never leave you hanging and he'll always be there to help you out down the road.

Speed Inc HANDS DOWN and I tried Straightline last year and I wont be going back. Speed Inc tuned my car this year and we just broke the stock ECU record. They have tuned pretty much every one of Chicago's FAST ls based cars. Jim and Larry are great people to work with!

Default Tuner Looking for Work to Buy Car Parts

Posting for a friend who's looking to gather extra funds to "finish" build his Trans Am for drag week. He's an experienced tuner/builder that routinely puts together massive HP LS builds as well as touching up tired engine/trans tunes for increased driveability. Dan is local to the Bartlett-area, and a professional engineer by trade designing intakes, exhausts, cams, and turbo packages for industrial engines. Great guy to work with and super knowledgeable about the capabilities and limits of GM powertrains. You can get a hold of him through clowngineerz28@gmail.com, just include a short summary of what your looking to do.
