I live in DFW so I cant speak much of Houston, but I know that Chuck@HPE got an extra ~20rwhp and ~20rwtq out of my old z28 with a hotcam, and he made it 10x more daily driveable, so Id say he knows what he was doing (the previous tuner was supposedly the 'man' in DFW) PSHHH but we dont even need to go into all that

MTI, Jayson is one of, if not the best LSX tuners around.

Do yourself a favor and go to HPE or G force. The answers in this thread add up to them.

Only come here if you want it done right the FIRST time. We charge 500 for LS1 all motor apps. 550 for n20 cars and 650 for forced induction.

So your saying Chuck can't get them right the first time? Well you are saying it without printing it anyway. So how much extra is the BBQ Sammich with a tune and can I get fries with that ?
