What do you have done? you looking for max hp tune or drivability? boos performance did my h/c/i car and then cj tunes did my friends cam only car but he's not to impressed with him i guess. but there is:

Boos performance in zimmerman street tune

tpis in chanhassen dyno there i think

cj tunes in st paul street tune

doug rippie in waverly has dyno

hi tech in elk river heard many bad things there though has dyno

db performance rogers although there big into mustangs has dyno

Just to name a few but i guess it depends on what you have done to who i would take it to.

Thanks for the list, I did see Doug rippie who is a great guy. Dyno isn't up yet in his new shop so we took on test run with sniffer up the tail and tech 2 on the OBD port. Bottom line she is dialed in, he said who ever set this thing up did a very nice job, it was modern muscle in the Chicago area. Thanks again for the list!

Doug Rippie Motorsports just did an install of a TVS 2300 and tune on my camaro. Outstanding shop with excellent workmanship. Car runs flawlessly. Wouldn't let anyone else touch it at this point.

Doug Rippie is about the best in that area......I would wait for his dyno to get up and running if I was you. Their work is second to non!

He is good.....but however he is tough to get appointments with cause he runs with all the power tours and runs.

Probably need to setup appointment a month ahead of time...and really got to put the pressure on him to keep at schedule. Know first hand....experience. If it is an LT1 forget it.....if LSx your good to go.

For anyone who still needs LT1 tuning

is a good one is Sioux Falls SD. They do import and LSx also, have a big name for some mean power and tunes both gas and E85.
