Default Need a tuner in the DFW area...
Just like the title says, I need a tuner in the DFW area for my LS2 GTO.

I know of a guy in Lewisville, and in Houston, but I will be towing the car to the tuner and both of those are a little too far away as I will be on a fairly tight schedule.


Any input is appreciated!

I've heard the kid doing tuning at TRT isn't worth a ****...just what I've heard, no personal experience. I am doing my own tuning so I can't speak for anyone else. However, Scott at SQR helped me a TON when I first got started, he's a great guy and damn fine tuner.

Simple Quick Racing is in Benbrook.. They do good tuning and I would recommend them.... Off of 20 and Winscott I think... Around the Hulen Mall Area....

Not from the area, but I drove past SpeedTek the other day and saw some mean cars out there--- don't know if they tune but it seemed like they had some bad toys out front.

If you're talking about the Ferraris and Lamborghinis those belong to the exotic rental place down the street.

Thanks for the replys guys I'm gonna contact these places to get some pricing and work out a time I can drop off the car.

Next weekend is when I plan on doing my engine work so I'm hoping to get it tuned soon after that. The car is my DD, so I have to schedule around how long I can live without the car...
