Default Looking for a tuner

I need a tuner that would be able to come to my house and put just a baseline tune on my PCM for my new motor. Speed Density 402 with Vic Jr, Accufab 4150 and 60lb injectors. I just need something put in it so I can start it and break the motor in. I live in Bedford. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

James is hands down best tuner you will work with, and he is very close by to you. He's tuned a ton of cars and the results are all incredible. He re-tuned a car that previously made 430 to the wheels and now makes 470 from tune change alone, all motor.

James tuned my LT1 and the cars drivability improved drastically. Gained power and torque on the dyno and was quicker at the track.

Screw mail order tunes after he tuned my car lol

We could do a mail order tune to get you going. We also travel all over tuning, Houston, Waco, Temple, Austin, etc it would be kinda expensive just to drive to you for one car.

How do I get in contact with Sam? I am still working on suspension, interior and cage. That is why I need someone to come to the house. Too much of a pain in the *** to move it right now.

Plus I really want someone local to tune it rather than do a mail order or have someone from out of town do it. Makes it a lot easier if I need to change something down the line.

Thanks for all the responses also.

Mail order is plenty good enough to get you started and driving around. Once your ready to push the tune, go find a dyno tuned.
