Yep. They put my 4.10's in end of July and tweaked the tuning for me. Prices are right where they should be and they are serious as a heart attack about racing and fast street cars.
If you want to talk to someone who has a lot more experience with them, IM nevrenuf (Tom Garland) here on the forum. :yesnod:

Just FYI "nevrenuf" is their LS1 edit tuner. Tom is a great guy and has tunned a ton of F-Bodies and C5's. He is one of the best, if not the best tuner around. He has done quite a bit of work on my car.
Also, Whatever you do, DO NOT TAKE IT TO RP MOTORSPORTS. They will screw your car up. And then they will not want to deal with you when you are unhappy with it. Just my experience with them. And I know for a fact that I am not alone.

I'd really like to see some hard evidence (like dyno sheets) of this tuning prowess. The best numbers that have been publicly posted for both H&C and big cube cars have come out of several of the shops that sponsor this forum.

Re: atlanta, ga area............ (IMQUIK)
I have heard good things about that shop. I would like to get my car re-dynoed at their shop. I had some work done at another metro atlanta shop and I will probably not go there again. It was a shop where if you didn't use the brands they liked, what you had was junk. I personally don't care for that attitude. :mad I think there are alot of excellent products out there and one should not judge so harshly against another product. :bb I guess that just slipped out :bb I would definetly like to give the Walden shop a try. One would think that as large as Atlanta is there would be more places to go.

Re: atlanta, ga area............ (dave777)
i know of rp and i have heard all of the stories good and bad. i was actually looking to see if some other names appeared so i would know of other choices. looks like there aren't many. i will give the walden shop a visit when i get ready to do something. not looking to start any fights here, saw what happened on the other post about the tt. don't that again. any way thanks for the info and if anybody has any dyno numbers always love to see what we can get out of these things.
thanks again.
thanks again.
