Default Whos your tuner???

Just like the question says guys who did you take your car to, to have it dyno tuned?

And on a side note does anyone here have a dyno tune by Ed Wright, and if you do how do you like it?

Oh and one other thing, here in a few months im going to be doing a transmission swap from an auto to a manual, do i need to take it to a local tuner to tell the car that it is a stick shift car now or will a hand held tuner do the trick?


thanks

I do my own, plus I have tuned dozens and dozens of other LS1 cars.

You will need to get your PCM flashed to a manual tranny OS when the T56 goes in. A hand held can't do that.

I also do my own tuning...but I'm not very reliable, and I don't think I do a very good job. I may just fire myself actually.

I tune everything myself and for all my friends and local people.

If I do something wrong, I can figure it out easier and I only have myself to blame

One of the best tuners hands down. Very particular and accurate on his tuning. I do some tuning as well and have had tuning done with a few others.

He is also very good with fords. Tuned my lightning to peak performance.
