Hello all
Just finishing up my rebuild with a procharger install. Lookin for any recommendations on a competent tuner.
Here is a short list of mods on the ls7.
Stock bore

Diamond low compression pistons ( neg 27cc )
Ported stock heads with Manley valves
Converted to wet sump
127lb injectors
Texas speed lsxr cam
Long tube headers with magnaflo exhaust
Aero motive in tank pump
Msd boost controler
Procharger f1-c

Where do you live?
Does your build still use a MAF? A tuner is going to want the full cam specs, compression ratio, header size, injector data, etc.
Matt Sorian of Florida Speed and Power is helping me with my tune via data logs and email.

I'm not familiar with any tuners out that way. Hopefully somebody else will chime in. You could also try posting this in the regional section.
Matt would definitely be able to help you out, but it's a longer process than just a day at the tuner like somebody local. You want to take things slow and send logs back and forth. I have the benefit of living in the middle of BFE, so I have spots I do my 3-4 pulls and it doesn't cost me dyno time. I also send logs of just normal driving.

Contact Mike at Vengeance Racing, he can remote tune anything and knows everything about the LS series motors and more importantly the computers. He had tuned all 3 of my cars, I would not trust anyone else

If he's doing remote tuning there are a few good ones out there. Matt Sorian is treating me right and we are sneaking up on the tune since I decided to swap from E85 to 91 octane. Remote tuning is definitely harder on a tuner since they only have the logs and can't feel the car.

You don't really have any close options. For a good tuner it is St Louis, Little Rock, Dallas.
I usually think doing it yourself the best option but... quite a step up on this setup.
Whoever does it start on the extreme safe side. It doesn't have to make a thousand on the first pull.
