I would spend the gas money and come down to Hayward, two amazing tuners in the area...
Nick Newton, owner of Newtech Performance- Great tuner, especially with big cam's as well as a great guy
And Rick at Synergy Motorsports....
Both good, I'd go with Nick..

And they even knocked off some money because it was tuned previously by another shop and because I had a lot of work done there on another vehicle.

Are you "Tha Joker" that intro'd me to Robert at Advanced Dyno...Dude what happened?
Anyway, Rick at synergy took good care of me on my Ls7 clutch a couple years ago, just too damn far...That's why I went Force Fed this time. Keiths a pretty good guy, takes a while to warm up to, but once he gets to know you, he's a good guy.

If you want great drivability rather than just a horsepower number, give Mark Romans a call at 916-770-0475. He will meet with you, plug his laptop into your port and drive around with you. He will evaluate what your engine is doing and make adjustments that match the way you drive. He spent about 2 hours with me. He even put an air/fuel meter in the tail pipe and we drove around so he could get my fuel curve just right. He does a safe tune, makes sure it is not too lean so you don't hurt your motor. All the timing is right on now through out the RPM range in every gear. The car drives like a dream now and is super responsive. Give him a call before you commit to a dyno tune. He has some great references too.

Another vote for Nick at Newtech. I would never let force-fed even look at my car much less touch it. I have heard great things about Synergy as well. I would trust Cam as well as he has a nice running car.

Another vote for Mark Roman as well, he drove out to Plumas Lake to street tune my car for driveability (Daily Driver) and a week later, Dyno tuned my car at SVS. Mark's a great guy and explains everything to you in regards to the car's tune. Also, this past weekend I had him address some driveability issues I was having with the car for a grand total of $0. Also, any time you need something changed (tune wise) on your car, Mark will update your tune free of charge.

My vote for Force Fed. Keith has tuned all 3 of my cars and they have ALL performed and drive great. Anytime I ever needed something changed Keith always took care of me.

Everyone has their opinion. Never dealt with cms. as far as rick, nick and mark romans they can all do great jobs, service can be the difference.
