Hey thank you guys for the warm welcome !
Damn I love g8s its a four door corvette lol , I have gotten in contact with Nelson's in the past but I figured my work schedule would not allow that 6am-4pm mon-fri :/ and they're closed in Saturdays !

I live in the north part of Houston guys ! Any tuners close by there . I wouldn't mind a drive either .

Few different ways to go about getting a tune. Depends what you want.

-Mail order
-Dyno/in person
-Handheld
-Learn to tune yourself. I vote this one.

Hey thanks for the reply , I think I would prefer a dyno or street tune anything in person would be preferable , a good friend of mine had his 08 Sierra tuned by Wheatley about two years back and that thing is damn quick till this day . I have tried to contact him but nothing . Does anyone know if he is still doing tunes ?

What are you trying to do? I could help you or my buddy at jtran could do a good job on a stock truck tune.

We are both on northside.
