Default Central Ohio Tuning

Sorry if this has been posted before.
Looking for recommendations from those CF members with personal experience with C5 - C6 tuners in the central Ohio area. Not really down on dealers, but looking to build a relationship with a quality tuner in my area.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
coop

Another option is Backstreet Performance in Medina. They are very knowledgeable with Corvettes and are even invited by the Museum to bring their dyno down a few times a year. Call Rich at 330-764-1923.

Just dropped off my 88 to him today. Getting clutch slave replaced and possibly some headers. He is a super nice guy and cares about the quality of his work and his reputation.

Mike Norris isn't too far and worth the drive in Indy.

IPS. Go take a drive over to their shop. It's just off of 270 on exit 23 N. It's about two miles north just off of the Columbus Pike (23) near Polaris. The shop is incredible. Their staff tries to bend over backwards from a customer service standpoint as well (Brandon and Jeff).

Give him a call and talk about what you need done. I can't wait to get some more loot and head back for mods!

You can also search the site on his name or the Camaro forums to see how stellar his reputation is in regard to his work and customer service.
