Default Need dyno tune

I live in Vernon, and I have just recently gotten my headers and ory, and am trying to find a place close by that can tune my car. I have been thinking about going to texas speed, but that is about 3 hrs away. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any that may be closer. If you don't know where Vernon is, it is by Wichita Falls. If you don't know that, it's north central texas about 20 miles from Oklahoma.

This isn't a who's the best thread. Its a who should I go to near Vernon. I know where Vernon is. I've been there. My wife's dad grew up in Vernon and her grandparents are burried there.

The closest place to dyno tune with the best reputation would be SQR in my book. Its definately closer to him than TSP and WAY closer than Houston. I don't know of anyone in between Ft. Worth and Vernon though. Do you Dirty?

If being a nut swinger means I've been to other places (one that is a sponsor on here) and got poor tunes (even on THEIR set up) and have now found a place that does great tunes for the same $, so I put their name out there so others won't get shafted by another shop like I was, then so be it. I'll swing on some nuts to keep someone else from having their hard earned cash taken for a bad tune.

Swift,
Expect to drop the car off for a few days for them to tune it. They don't just thow it on the dyno and tune just for WOT like other places I've been to.

Thanx for that man, I already said this isn't a who's the best thread. As for the simple quick, I just can't leave my car anywhere for a few days. It is my dd. I may end up taking it to TSP and just be done with it.
