I got my car dyno tuned by Jaq at Mad Hatter's garage in Broussard. He uses HP tuners. There's also Rajun Racing in Scott.

There's been some good turnouts the last couple of weeks.

Alright cool. I'll swing by around 8.

I'd be interested to hear what she runs. I plan on going sometime in June hopefully so I can get some base runs. Gotta change my knock sensors and get rid of the bald sumitumos first unfortunately.

Cool, I just mounted some 555r's. It'll be a little tricky to get them to hook as well as the MT's I had but these should last longer on the street.

Def gonna be tricky with your HP lol

Just got back from the meet, had a pretty decent turn out. Probably around 30 cars (not including the truck bros). Had a mustang come pre-crashed as well. Apparently he crashed into a camaro right before he pulled in

Yeah I missed out, took the wife out to eat and didn't make it to that side of town. Took the car specifically to ride out to the meet too lol. Supposedly there's going to be a little carshow in that same parking lot Saturday. I saw pics of a couple Supras that showed last night.

Hey guys who would you go with for tuning? I need me C6Z tuned. H/C/I and need it on the dyno. My two choices are Geoff @ EPS or Randy @ Ragin Racin. Just for tuning. No installing or anything. So based on tuning ability alone.. which is the better tuner?

I'd go with Geoff. You won't be disappointed.

The only experience I have with RR was when I called them once and they seemed to lose interest once I said my car was an fbody lol. That being said, I dont think I've ever seen them recommended over Geoff in my time researching local tuners.

Thanks for the torque arm, looking forward to getting it installed and attending the local shows and meeting more of the Lafayette people.
