Default Dyno Tuners in CA??

Hi, I have been reading this Forum for some time and have been impressed by the number of helpful and knowledgeable Vette people!!!
This is my first post...i am looking to have my Vette dyno tuned and have a custom chip programmed...any suggestions???...i am willing to travel anywhere in CA..i am in the San Francisco Bay Area...
I have a 383, BB Triflows, no cats, DRM coilovers, etc,,,currently using a HyperTech chip...Any suggestions for a reputable tuner would be very much appreciated..
Thanks.

I have found them by doing a dealer search on either the mustang dyno website or the dynojet website...

Hope this helps...

I wonder if its because they are so hard on anything that has to do with emissions and being carb certified.

I found that all the vette guys have gone c5 because that's where the money is. Nobody wanted to help me tune my car when i called some of the bigger shops. Emissions.... even my car in the horrible state of tune that it's in passed CA emissions.... If you have properly functioning cats, you can cover up for some pretty radical motors.

I'm in So Cal and I'll let you know if I hear anything. TJWONG is probably the closest to you....
