Default Tune in Houston?
Hey guys I have a 99 trans am with a stealth cam and full exhaust..I picked it up already modded last summer. It runs extremly rich and I only get about 220 miles on a tank of gas...Im thinking about getting it tuned but have no clue where or how much this costs..trying to save most of my money for college but if its not too much Ill probaly do this

any suggestions on a good place?

im gonna have to go with HPE. the guy tuning my car. guessed at the parameters cause the car had an opti full of oil and old, cheap *** spark plug wires. i just put a new opti on and replaced the plug wires. the only tuning issue i could find is that it ran a little rich. my car has the cam in my sig and 30# injectors. thats alot of guessing and he got pretty close. they might cut you a deal
