The horror stories are usually about Keith, Not Billy. Keith is hardly ever at the shop anymore and Billy does all the tuning now. Double check the horror stories, lol.

Billy tuned my Vette, it makes 745 rearwheel on 91 octane.

If you are willing to go out to the bay area i would suggest Newtech Performance in hayward i hear they do a good job. My friend got tuned at force fed when they had a "special" going on and wasn't happy with the results. Where in sac are you?

South sac I tried to get ahold of mark roman but can't I hear really good things about billy @ force fed the only bad things I heard were from Keith and it was maybe 2 or 3 that didn't like his tuning but I heard 2 or 3 about newtech as well none about syenergy billy showed me a vette he was finishing up last year...

You missed this: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/nort...1-30-12-a.html .
Wish I would have seen this thread earlier to tell you about it. They had a special on tuning for $350, can't beat that deal. Anyway, this is the place to go. I wouldn't mess with Newtech in Hayward, my brother got his Camaro tuned up there and didn't like what he did with the car. I honestly think Nick, at Newtech, could have done a better job with my brothers car, but he didn't put enough effort into it.
