Default Any remote tuners anymore?

Are there any folks that do remote tuning anymore?
The guy I used to use said he doesn’t do it anymore.
The process I’m used to is review the scan, modify the tune….rinse repeat.
I don't mind paying.

I bought a kinda dead 03 Z06, would go “reduced power” mode at ignition with a TPS sensor code.
But after pulling my hair out for 2 weeks , I discovered it was a corroded throttle body connector….to a jumper harness cuz its running a big throttle body. After cleaning and drying now it runs like a monster but I want to make sure its tuned right.

The previous owner said it had a 402 (stroker LS2), but dunno. The current tune volume is set to 6.0. It’s got some serious power though. I’ll spin those 555r tires if you whomp on it second gear.

What I can see is
1. Fast intake….old one
2. Green top injectors (42#?)
3. Big throttle body (ls2?)
4. Long Tube Headers

Any help you can give me with a tuner referral would be appreciated as I’m about 2 hours from a dyno tuner.

And are you able to tell the difference between an LS1 Block and an LS2 Block from the outside?

Here’s a pic….after I cleaned it up.

I have a short HP Tuner (attached) scan if anyone wants to provide any feedback.

LS2 block will say 6L under the driver's side cylinder head on the front. You can also look at the side of the block to see if the knock sensors are there (though they could have just deleted them).

LSX Power Tuning is good here. Lorentz can help you out remotely.

Yep. He did mine remotely. I did bring it in for him to take a look at it on his dyno eventually but he had it running great with the remote tune.

Not to be off topic but is there something wrong with the way the throttle body is mounted to the intake? It looks like the passenger top has a spacer in between the intake and throttle body and the drivers side is actually being bent in with the nut and bolt? Just wondering.
