Default DFW tuner for upp twin turbo vette

First post in a long time, but wanting to get some first hand opinions. I’ve got a 2011 corvette that lifted a head and broke a ring back in January. It has now been rebuilt with forged rods, Pistons, head studs, heads just got cleaned up and a valve job. Went with a stage 2 tt btr cam as well while it was apart. It has been street tuned but just for drivability and no WOT. It is a little too much for my builder to do street tuning on above that and he does not have a dyno. Once I get it back home to Dallas I’m going to need a tuner. It was tuned with Quality Motorsports before and ran great up until the event that is.... calibrated by Karger is my other choice in my head though. Anyone have experience with either? I have a friend that is pushing me towards going back with quality but hard for me to tell if the head lifting was part of the tuning or just failure on the cars part.

Oh wow I had no idea!! I figured just the pressure in general could cause the bolts to stretch. Well then guess that takes quality out of the running. Lol

If you are in Tyler, you might call Stephen with East Texas Musclecars. They are in Longview.

Prime Tuning and Karger would be a god choice.

The car is being built in Tyler but I live in grapevine so I will probably look into Karger.

Yeah anything in DFW is going to be doable. The car will be fully driveable I will just be needing WOT tuning taken care of.
