Default nelson's, wheatly's, or texas speed?

ive only had my new truck for a month but w/ a cai and catback on the way im in need of a good custom tune. i've heard great things about wheatly and about nelson performance.... AND texas speed is here in town so i dont know who to go with. i plan on doing more down the road like headers/cam/stall and all three places offer tune updating for little or no money. i just want to know who is thebet to go with.

get a local tune that is the best, but good luck with your choice.

I'm pretty sure that Texas Speed does dyno tuning . . . (not that you would need it) It's easier to get a hold of someone that's local vs out of town.

I always recommend a local tune over mail order. I worked with Jason @ TSP before. He is very knowledgable and does a good job.

Go buy one of the tuning packages and learn how to do it yourself

Out of that group, I'd go with Charlie or TSP.
