That's the guy that owns Red Dragon. I would think it's safe to assume that he knows how to tune a GM lol.

I own a GTO and know a lot of the KC GTO guys. None of them would let Justin (Justunes) touch their car. There is a guy on this forum called Area47 that has tuned a couple of my vehicles including my Tahoe (you can find his posts in the KC thread in the regional section). He's about the only one in the KC area I would trust.

There's a shop like that here in NC as well. They had a LS1 Trans Am that went on Pinks during their first season and won but they botch up every car they touch.

If the man can tune a 1000hp turbo setup...he can tune a cam only setup, someone's not tellin all they know.

This guy has a whole thread about getting screwed over on the GTO forum.

Wouldn't be the first tuner to be able to tune one awesome setup and nothing else. Wideband tuning is one thing.... Tuning without is a completely different ball game.

Verify wot AFR, and timing. Then move on. How does the cam pull? Even? Does it fall off up top? Their was a previous thread similar to this, and the guy had a lacking fuel system. What year is your truck?
