Default Tuners in and around Little Rock, Ar or Memphis

Who would be a good custom tuner? I've got an 05 Sierra with the H.O. 5.3 and am looking for a good street tune, or maybe even a dyno if it isn't too expensive. So who do you guys know of?

Thanks in advance, Hank.

We are a new shop in memphis. We have a brand new inground dyno with wideband,analog to measure fuel pressure and boost, and dynojets latest...the obd2 data link....only dyno in the area with the new equipment. We have one of the best tuners in the country. He used to be the tuner for F.A.S.T. , now he is with us. We have ALL of the GM software and Ford software. Fell free to give me a shout if you would like a price on tuning.

Thanks,
Brian

Go with Unaffiliated Racing we had a small misuderstanding and they did everything they could to fix it. If they will do that just opening up a shop once they get on there feet they will be great.............Ask for brian...

Another vote for Rhino....he goes the extra mile every time. I installed the TR230 cam and was told by numerous members that it was going to be a bitch to tune. It certainly was a bitch, but Ryan got it spot on and it runs like a champ. Can't beat his price either.

Before anyone jumps in with the cheaper isn't always better shot, it doesn't apply here. Ryan stands by his work and does a fantastic job!

Ryan tuned me too. Runs great, and he told me when I get gears just run it by and he will retune free. I trailered all the way from Memphis. Did a great job at 1/3rd the cost of local tuners. I know nothing of unafilliated racing but id like to see their pricing. You really dont need a dyno tune. I will tell you Rhino had said he is alot busier with work now, he tunes on the side in spare time, so youd have to be patient. But it was worth it to me.

Weve been in business for about a year and a half now. We have tuned a lot of cars with great results. some of our tunes are posted here in the dyno section.

Our prices are very competitive. Anywhere from 350.00 to 500.00 for a custom dyno/street tune depending on your mods.

Not to mention we are a sponsor so you know we are going to do everything in our power to make you a happy customer.

Call us if we can help.

Same word that I got aswell.

There is another guy locally here that I was wanting to get with for some adjustments for mine. He did a tune on a truck for a friend of mine, but I guess the guy isn't interested cause I haven't got any reply's back.
