if you're looking for an actual shop (and not a person) - AZ Power and Sound in Tempe is your best bet. They specialize in 4th gen camaros.

I thought that Nic stopped doing LT1's? Especially OBDI LT1's cuz you need an individual cable (or some such).

I haven't heard too many good things from any tuners in AZ. I guess either nobody talks about them or there just isn't any

If you have an LSx based engine then Nic D is the man. Hell, in my club he's considered a mod. I'm pretty sure he's registered here as NicD.

I dont think NicD works for just one shop. But he works with alot of them tuneing customers cars. When i had my cam installed at AZ Power & Sound. He went there and tuned it. Did an awesome job and was well worth the money. He is a busy guy so it might take him a while to get back to u if u are tryin to contact him.

Well, since he built his own turbo'd Z and has tuned most of cars in the club that have needed it, I'd say he knows his ****. He works closely with Mike @ AZP&S because Mike mods 'em then Nic tunes 'em but he doesn't work for Mike.
