Default Where to get tune

Anybody have any suggestions for tuning in the Greenville,Raleigh area? Have 2003 Z06 with mainly bolt ons. Want to optimize the mods I have added. Thanks for any help. That would be in NC.

Call Jeff Creech at CAM.

Very good work and used by a lot of LSx engine owners.
He did my stock Z06. Cleaned up the A/F ratios and some other tweaks. I picked up 12hp/28ftlbs. Plus he fixed the need for the CAGS, set cooling fan on/off where I wanted it, turned off torque mgmt, etc.. I told him the car was for street/autox/track so the tune needed to be a balance and nothing crazy. I've been running with that tune for a year with no problems.

I'm not affiliated with them in any way, just a happy customer.

X2 for Jeff He has done all the work on my car and I could not be happier I keep adding more mods and he just keeps knocking it out and tuning it perfectly to my wants, goals and needs. He has saved my $ by sharing his experiance with what works and what does not as far as parts as well.

I am a long time friend and customer of Jeff and highly recomend him and his shop. Good luck man and if you see a red Z up there, well, that would be me (next up, boost)

Jeff did the tune on my car nearly a year ago and I couldn't be more pleased. Not one issue and the car runs great.
