Default who does some affordable simple standalone tuning?

Who is doing stock standalone pcm tunes?? Just need the typical stuff turned off. I have emailed notasponsor.com and I am not getting any response (sure hope he is still doing it). I've successfully done tuning myself before (Tweecer on a turbo Mustang) and know turning off a few things on a stock tune is pretty simple.

So who else is experienced, refutable, responsive and can get this done for about what Brendan charges?

BTW If someone has a tuning setup that they want to sell for a good price (HPtuner, EFILive with a license) I may be interested too.

Might want to mention the vehicle type and your location.

This motor/pcm is from a 2004 5.3 L59 with a 4l60e. It is going into a '57 Belair. Located on the MS coast.

Just need VATS, Emissions, other basic things for standalone turned off... motor/tranny is bone stock and the PCM matches the motor.

I had one offer for $200 but looking for something closer in price to what Brendan does.

We can do it but we charge $200. We are also a business with someone answering the phones and emails all day and not just doing this part time after work. Just consider that when you're shopping around, cheaper is not always better.

David,
Were you satisfied with the tune? Assuming you have it back by now?
I may be looking for the same kind of thing for my 57 Nomad LS1 build (stock engine/trans/ECM...just shut off the stuff that will keep it from running once I get to the point of starting it up for the first time). thanks, Paul

Well, I did crank up the engine on the pallet it was shipped on last weekend with the tune from Brendan. I can say it ran, that's about it at this point in time. The turn around time was pretty quick.


I will say if you need any performance mods, shift points etc... you'll need to go with someone who can do a different tune from what I understand.
