Oh we know a few guys, but i havent seen them in awhile......Jeff who has a Cobalt ss/sc, the fastest in the st.louis area, probably in the state of Missouri cause he runs low 13's on street tires with the stock catback on, he knows a really good tuner. Mccord Tuning is really good as well, Mike chime in on what shop does tuning that you know? I think Lowe Performance has HPT but im not sure...

David are you talking about me? Cause you have no idea how I drive!

And I'll run the Red S/C again if you want. I don't think it is stock, but maybe it is.

The Red ss/sc is stock, but it does have the freak mod, and David those 2 shops you mentioned dont HPTune and suck at what they do......Adrenaline = Blown motors cause Chuck sucks at tuning.

Freak mod lol. And the yellow one is stock. Adrenaline, stay far away from them. They can tune Foreign cars ok, but they are def. not an american car tuner. I'm pretty sure Redline Performance tunes GM's. I no they do wonders on F-Body's

Well, if your going that route, why buy the stage 2 in the first place? why not just buy the 60's, the 2.8, and go stright to the tuner? SOunds cheaper to me. Or, if your worried about warranty, but GM stage 2 with a 2.9 pulley. Just exchange out the 2.9 for the gm 3.0 when u take it in for work. just my 2 cents

I think this is Redline's number. (636) 937-9760 They are in Herculaneum. Give them a call and see what they can do for you. I know they tune F-Body's all the time. They built my buddies 408 Iron blocked TA with a 300 shot on it. Put on 623 on motor only. Nitrous hasn't been used yet for tuning

No wingless trunk but call Dan Mccord at Mccord tuning, or Joe and PerformanceByJoe, both can tune very well and safe....You wont get a ******* dangerous tune either, both shops will charge you around 300-400 bucks.
