Default Tuning help/suggestions

I plan on buying a trick stage 2 kit for my 08 rcsb chev. My first question is the closest tuning shop up here in canada alberta for me is 3hrs away. Can i run the stock tune to get it to the city or should i just go with something like efi live. Any other suggestions i am open too. Next question is. Injectors will the stock ones work if i am only looking to make 400-450hp or will i need bigger? Third question is will the stock fuel pump also handle that much flow?

You could trailer it to the tuner also. thats what i do but i also have a RCSB. and on the injectors and fuel pump i personally would upgrade for just in case measure's, but i think they should both be able to take the 400-450 with a good tune...

red silver where you live? I'm 30km North east of Edmonton. and also buying a turbo kit this week. trick stage 3 kit.

I believe horsepower solutions is one of the only options for north american vehicle tuning in Edmonton. I pondered driving down to Calgary for a tune.


after seeing my buddies dyno print out from hp solutions I'm a bit hesitiant. his power graph had a loop in it! like a roller coaster lol

That just happens when the tach input isnt very good. Nothing to do with tune quality.

I am from bonnyville. I was looking at morretto out of edmonton. Seen a few corvettes come out of there with good numbers plus they have a twin turbo 99 camero that they built. Sounded like they have done alot of tuning with boost.
