i know an in person tune IS the best. glad im close enough to get allen to tune my truck in person, but for a mail order tune, allen nelson seems to nail them on the head more than anyone else. cajuns truck is just an extreem case of allens talent.

scsb 4x4 cammed 6.0 VS ecsb 2X4 stock cam 5.3...dont think so by the way, my money is on you for the beau vs mat race (mainly cuz beau wont spill the beans about his cam ) and we will be the only ones drinking our asses off cutting .0x R/t's

I'm just wondering if you have any proof to back this up? I know Allen does excellent tunes but to make a statement like this, I'd really like to see some proof.

I know Bryan Herter from PCMForLess has one of the best reputations out there and has little to no complaints on his tunes, research his name a little bit. Bryan tunes my truck and I couldn't be happier, but I'm not one bit biased.

Also, I've seen a lot of people on SilveradoSS.com who are former Nelson users comment on how Zippy Performance tune's make Allen's look silly. You can find quite a few people not impressed with their Nelson tune over there.

If I were to do it over again, I would go with a Zippy tune. I say that not because I'm dissapointed in my PCMForLess tune, only because of his reputation of being one badass tuner and the $150 price tag.

Again, I'm not trying to start a pissing match with all of this. I'm just trying to show that there are tuners out there on par with Allen Nelson.

I cant say anything good or bad about Nelson personally, but I do know I did a cam swap for someong Sat, with a Nelson tune. His new tune came in Sat also, and its still dying on him occasionally
