I would say Rick @ Synergy. Very knowlegeable and has been in the scene for years. Or Nick @ Newtech. Either one is a good choice.

Honestly be that far north i wouldn't drive to either, call mark romans.. His in your area..
Second I would go to all out performance nate..

I have been and seen all tunes. Their all good, some have better service then others

Once you choose ONE STICK TO THEM. Do not be a shop horror

Bunch of choices
-TPS Motorsports in Campbell, CA Tuned my uncles C6 LS2 Supercharged A6 and my Cobalt SS
-Synergy in Fremont, CA (no personal experience with him)
-Newtech in Hayward, CA he tuned my dads c5z06 intake/tune only made 377whp

or

-Theres also a really good local tuner in San Mateo he tuned my TBSS as well as every other tbss in the bay and bunch of my friends cars (10sec ctsv, 11 sec tbss, H/C/I Z06, etc) he does a very good job. His names Matt or LT1Z (not sure if hes on here) If you PM me i'll give u his number. He does street tunes and can dyno tune he just needs time to rent one out.

Who cares about dyno numbers.... Oh and why have I not been told about these "friends." I wouldn't mind walking a few of them
