Default What's up with the "Rhino79 Tune"?

I see many people from Arkansas have this in their mod lists in their sigs. . . What exactly is it, and how do I find this guy? The reason I ask, is that I bought my car with it tuned already, and I would rather re tune it and know what it has done with it. -John

Rhino is a fella who tunes cars in our area. As soon as I can get my car together Im going to have him tune my car. Everyone Ive talked to were very satisfied with his work, so I figured he might as well do mine too.

He can be reached through PM Rhino79

Ryan (Rhino) is the ****. He will spend HOURS if he has to to get the tune right. Whatever it takes.....he won't stop until you're happy and he's happy. He's got several hours in my tranny tune alone, setting it up for the 4000 converter and nailing the shift points right where I wanted them. He just did a LS2 GTO and the guy gained .3 and 4 MPH!! Best part is it's a lifetime deal. You pay once and he'll re-tune anytime you mod and need a refresh. Last time I checked, he had done somewhere North of 20 LS1 cars and several LSX trucks. PM him and never look back!

Mine is also Tuned by him, we actually put the Tune in from Wood Haulers 408 in his Truck to give mine a base line so it will start. Then we will adjust it from there when the time comes.
That will be one hell of a ride for the WOT A/F adjustments..

He is cool as hell, hit him up with a PM and he will hook you up.

One thing you guys need if you want to get a FULL tune, O2 bung must be welded into your exhaust so he can do wideband tune.

Another car tuned by Rhino79. Couldn't be happier, he takes his time to make it right. Send him a PM I'm sure he'll be happy to do it.

Thanks for the compliments guys, I like doing it, learn something new everytime I tune one, and would be glad to help anyone else that would like a tune.
