Default who tunes better in Ca??

I wanted to tune my car along with my buddies 2000 z28. I've heard of New Tech Performance and Synergy motorsports. Both of our cars are automatics. I've heard good things about both, but im under the impression that Synergy tunes auto cars better (daily driving & racing) and that New tech does M6s better? for those that gotte then cars tuned there, any input where i should take my and my buddies car? thanks in advance

Yeah, a good tuner goes a long way! We rarely see less than 25-30WHP from our tunes, most of the cars if they listen to our advice see MUCH more than that. I can honestly say that about 30-50% of the cars we do here see a gain of more than 40WHP from the tune and small mods done by us here at the shop, many LT cars have gained nearly 100WHP from just tuning and minor tweaking of the total system! The lesser ones are the cars that are very lightly modded and don't respond as well because they are pretty close to stock and are not too far out of tune in the first place.

haha...I thought about throwing down a little money challenge to them to see if they could safely add 35-40rwhp more than the tune I have in the car now. I think their statement lacks some qualifications and has too many assumptions.

BTW, where were you on Sunday? I came by the shop and you were not there. Can I drop those wheels off tomorrow?

Well,
Thats hard to say, we have never seen one from him but I can say there have been many others we have bested, including a Zo6 race car with a factory GM race tune! We beat there's by 10WHP.

Remember I simply stated what we HAVE accomplished, not what we can do for everyone! I depends how good the tune you have is now and if the tuner addressed certain issues with some of the mechanical tweaks we do to these cars. Also most of the cars we see have not had the normal maintenance, like o2's fuel filters, plug wires etc. We see a lot of people that do not do all the normal stuff and that makes for some nice gains!
