I'd try Straightline, heard nothing but good things about them.

thanks guys....I'm assuming Straightline doesn't do meth either

at 600rwhp on a stock bottom end and going for a bit more possibly sounds like the general consensus would be ...METH!
Right?

thanks!

I had Finish Line Perf. install my A&A kit on my 2000 vert a few years back. They were not the cheapest but I am super happy with their work and have not had a single issue in 3 years.

Meth is pretty much a must if you want your motor to live as long as possible! I don't trust ANY Chicago tuners with a meth tune. Mike Norris in Indy is the closest person I would trust!

If you can wait till spring, Doug from ECS should be coming to Straightline to tune! He tuned my car and WILL BE THE ONLY TUNER TO EVER TOUCH MY TUNE! This would be your best chance to get the best possible Meth tune! Hope this helps you out! PM me with any more info you may need!

weekend cruiser. But finally got some drag radials and would like to make a dozen or so passes a year.

I asked about meth (Speed, inc) they don't use it. Don't know if thats just on the lower hp cars or what.

Maybe just leave boost where it is and throw in a baby cam.....

If you go to speed inc don't use the blad basturd tony the tuner. He's the biggest moron around screwed my car up and a few of my friends. Any tuner that says meth will blow up your engine needs some more schooling if he had any at all.

He found the problem after I left Indy, it's the TCC voltage controller is what I was told, simple fix in the tune!

When are you getting EFI Live? I don't want to spend the loot!
