I have to believe that experience is what counts in tuning these or any other car and that
The proper dyno tune with a little street time after is the best of both worlds.
I understand this is the way Charlie tunes so hopefully I am getting the best!
Thanks for all the input, it sounds like I will be in good hands!!!

First this is a Thread about the OP winning a tune from a tuner. I am sure COW would be upset if this tuner went into his thread and starting talking about his tuning abilities.

Obviously you do not understand what is going on when one says they are using a load dyno to hold a RPM range for any length of time.

Maybe before you hyjack a thread you should understand what you are talking about.

Start with Google "Load Bearing Dyno" and then ask shops that are actually using load bearing dynos.
