Looking for a tuner. . .

I am looking for a recommendation for a tuner close to St. Louis. I have no problem driving 5-6 hours to make this happen. . .

Here's what I will need to do:

1. Send the cpu to the tuner and get a base tune which will allow me to drive the car to get it tuned.

Any ideas, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

It might help to post your year, mods, and why the car needs a tune right now just to get back on the road. Also if you just need a dyno tune, usually WOT, surely someone in your area would be able to help out.

Check with FLP (877-FLP-2WIN) in Naperville, which is just outside Chicago

List my mods:

A&A Procharger 10psi
Forged 370ci engine
224/224 114 cam
3.42 gears
LT headers
PT2900 converter
Transgo shift kit

So, in short, it's a completely new driveline. I need to have the car tuned so it will run. . .

I live in St. Louis and I had my car tuned over at MC Racing in Kansas City, MO. They are a Procharger dealer, so they should have plenty of experience tuning a car with your mods.

Where did you guys in STL area get your engine work done at. I need someone local to inspect my Heads and possibly replace them.

I don't know of anyone who specializes in C5s, there is a place out around St. Charles called "Just Corvettes." I'm not sure if they do engine work, someone told me they do good bodywork.

I'll check with my F-body bud to see if he can recommend someone to check out your LS1.

We can put a base program in your car so it will run and then you can bring it to us to tune. A full dyno tune would be $550 and there would be no additional charge for programming the computer ahead of time besides shipping. You can give me a call at 877-FLP-2WIN to discuss it further and schedule.
