Check out Johnny Lightning Performance. It's about a 20 minute ride from the Lancaster area and I hear his name thrown out there quite often. I have never actually used him for anything on my car as of yet but I have met him at a few events and he seems to be extremely knowledgable. Hope this helps and congrats on purchase!

i highly advise against that.^^^ he built my lightning and def didnt use the best parts(heads were junk), tune was off and was impossible to get a hold of.

look at JDM engineering in NJ or JPC in MD.

JPC is a top notch shop. My Cobra is there right now. They do nothing but great work and the customer service is awesome.

If you don't mind driving a bit, give Kevin Hand a call over at Wicked Motorsports in Ocean, NJ. I had a very positive experience with Kevin, and he put a lot of time into my car to really get the tune right, as well as fixed a few issues I didn't know existed. Very meticulous and very patient. Highly recommend!

I know you are not in Maryland but you should consider Horsepower by Hermann in Beltsville, MD. Also there is Competition Speed and Sound in Mechanicsville, MD. I have spoke to Jason at Competition and he will be getting my business in the future.

Don't know if you're still looking or the layout in PA, but i know a good dude/tuner named Frank at PSI Motorsports. I think he's located in Palmerton. Had to look it up cause I haven't seen him in a long time. Treated me good and saved me some money. Don't know how things are now. Pretty sure should be the same.

I used JLP when I did the ProCharger on my Mach. Sent JLP an email after trying to reach John Lund to set up a base tune/dyno tune. Cars been good for a year, daily driven for the most part and some Cecil trips. RPM I know they're known for GM/LS platform cars.

+1. Thanks all. Definitely a huge help for me, too. Looks like I've got some good choices here in Columbia: JPC, Horsepower by Hermann, etc.
