i had a nelson mail order tune and it was pretty good. then i got a blackbearperformance tune and it was better. it also was done in person and on the street and i feel that leads to the best result short of a dyno tune.

The nelson tune is great. But if you can dyno tune at a local shop, that would have the best results.

A friend of mine just had a dyno tune a Thunder racing and only picked up 7hp at the wheels? Is this typical for a tune or should it gain more hp? His mods are CAI, Pacesetter Lt's, ORY, 4.10 w/eaton posi. I think they are using LS1 edit?
