Default Futral Tune or Dyno Chassis?

I just got a F11 cam installed from futral motorsports.. now i need some tuning... Should i get Alans mail order tune for $400? Or should i hook it up on a local dyno chassis at Ronnie Dukes Hardcore motorsports for $550? What will see better gains? Pro's? Con's? Thanks for your input

I'd let Allan do it He knows the cam and is badass when it comes to tuning.

If you can find someone with scan software that will log a 20 minute run, sending that info to Allen will give you a custom tune better than most dyno tunes. His MO tune should get you very close, the dyno tune will be dependent upon skill of user and whether they scan/log and fine tune from the scan.

Given the two go Futral ... based on seeing a few cars they built at NvS I'd say they know what they're doing heh

Plus I'd trust Ronnie Duke about as far as ... n/m I wouldn't at all...

alright it looks like i'll have to go with the mail order tune from futral.. he knows the cam and probabaly knows best on how to make the car run good..

Horist why wouldn't u trust ronnie duke? he's a pretty good guy? have you heard bad things about him?

Thanks for all the replies! Appreciate it!

Some very shady business practices related to some loans... there was a news report on him on a detroit news website (you can search this site for it... but the link seems to no longer be valid) ... they even used his pic from the cover of GMHTP ... Based on what that article said ... while not necessarily illegal... what he was doing is really shady and I wouldn't trust him ....
