There are a couple of shops in CA. Since he doesn't want to give an exact location then I throw this one out.
Synergy Motorsports
37401 Joseph St
Fremont, Ca 94536
I think Trever1t uses them. Anyway, I've driven anywhere from 2-6 hours to get a proper dyno tune on my vehicles. Mail order tunes are fine and they get the job done, but if you want it dialed it exact you need to be in person for a street/dyno tune.
I understand you frustration with not getting through and not having email/calls returned. I am having the same problem. Of the many shops I called, Wheatley and Justin @ Balckbear are the only 2 that responded. So one of them will get my business for a startup tune, then I'm off to TX Speed for a dyno tune

I'm on the central coast.I've looked around here because I had an 03 with a magnacharger that I needed tuned.Nothing in the immediate area.
I'm going to try a little harder.I hate to see $300 go to waste.If still nothing?Then I'll just send them the whole computer back with a nice thank you noted welded to the side of it.
Then I'll be headed to SD it looks like.
Hey 05,my cam comes in next week.Got my springs today.I'll keep you updated about that potential drag strip up here.Sounds almost to good to be true!

I got my tune out of Canada, won't be going back none to soon, only I wasted more money than you 
, may take your approach, "send it back and say thanks for the paperweight, but I have enough of them"

Like some others have said. As long as the previous tuner did not lock it. Give this guy a shot. He is a supporting vendor on the Corvette Forum and people rave about his tunes. He also tunes trucks, Camaro's, Cadillac's and virtually any GM product as well as automatic transmissions so they work the way they should. It is at least worth the phone call.

I called 7 times in the past 2 days.Got 1 call back and it was a voicemail.I have a cam sitting in my closet waiting to go in!But if it's going to take who knows how long to get a ahold of them(which is supposed to be the easy part).Who knows when it'll come to receiving the tune.
I found out their tunes are locked.So I mau just have to eat the $300 bucks and get another.I can't put the truck on hold for who knows how long,just because of crappy customer service....
