Default Tuner question

Got a friend who's coming back from Afganistan in mid April. Wants to have his car shipped to Gulf Port and drive it home to here in El Paso, Texas.

What good tuners are en route? I know LGM is in Dallas, but what is in Houston, or Louisiana? Figure he's just going to take IH-10 all the way back.

contact these guys. dynotune@rwtd.com They are in Mobile, which is about 50 miles east of Gulfport. (a little out of the way) I've known several people who have used them. I had my Harley tuned by them and was very happy. They can be hard to get a hold of. I think he shut down the main shop and operates out of his house part time.
I think your friend would be very happy.

I've heard some good things about this place as well. I've never dealt with them. But it is more "on the way"

Thanks, I'll pass that on. Think he had said some thing about going to Thunder Racing in Baton Rouge, LA. Any one know if they're any good?
