Well from the people i talk to your best bets are either RPM(Lewisville) or Simple Quick(Ft Worth) Both shops have said very good things about the others tuning.

Here we go again, just buy either HP Tuners or a stand alone and do it yourself.

Ditto on the places. My car is at SQR so I can easily vouch for Daniel's tunning abilities.

It's not that good of a time to get a tune right now. With it being so humid from all the rain, it can make tunning a really pain and not accurate. I'd wait until it clears up a little bit before investing the money in a tune.

The weather shouldn't have anything to do with a tune unless you are talking about a speed density tune, the MAF should compensate for weather conditions.
