Would my best bet be to purchase a stage kit and let gm install and tune then?

Install it yourself, have it tuned by starling05(or something like that, He tuned RKRamos and as far as I know he is the only one really still in NC doing tunes). GM doesn't really tune it, they throw on a reflash with general parameters that are "warranty safe".

Best to find someone here that knows what they are doing and can get you what you want. There are some tuners that way iirc.

No I'm not tuned by him, I'm tuned by a buddy in FL. Also Starting05 doesn't live in NC.

Someone on here is on your area and has hptuners. Find someone that does and work out a deal with them to load your tune and log for you. This way you can have anyone you want remote tune you

Glad to hear. I am going to have them look at mine and possibly retune this spring I think. Just not all that happy with the Trifecta tune I have now.

the trifecta ones are conservative. Not a bad thing, but my ending result is good afrs under boost and cruse, but at idle I am running really rich like 10:1 to 10.5:1 afr.
