There are tons of places that tune in PHX. Go to your regional forum and there should be a thread listing all the places in there.

The problem with most local shops that dyno tuning will end up hiring Nic D to do the tuning and then charge you $500-650. You're much better off going straight to the source (Nic D) and save yourself the money.

You still need to dyno tune as well, but talk to xtreme they will have cody in house do the tune. Been much more pleased with his tunes then anyone else I have used locally

I'll take care of you. I know Cody and no offense to him but he is not an experienced tuner by any means.

I've had a NicD tune in my car for two years now with no issues whatsoever and he made a big cam behave nice for a daily driver.

Well, if you are looking for someone who is the most experienced GM tuner in Arizona you will end up with only one guy and that is Nic. I'm sure you can get a good tune through other people but no one has his experience in AZ. Whether calling him direct or going through one of the shops he tunes through you can not go wrong.

Formula #2 is a Vortech supercharged forged LT4 stroker. Not many of those running around town.
