I live in Asheville and need a good tuner. I am going to put a ported blower on the Cobra. I already have the Diablo, Steeda CAI, Bassani cat back and X-pipe. I want to run a 2.80 with the blower. Do you guys have any suggestions on who I should go see. Thanks, Tony

Tuner

Hey Tony,
Amazon will be up and running in the next few weeks. :banana: You do know that we are only an hour or so away? I guarantee the wait and drive will be worth it!

Hey thanks for the reply, I thought no one was going to say anything. Who is the tuner where you are at.
I just heard last week about Amazon coming to Anderson.
Thanks, Tony

Here's one...Dan Desio (704-651-3807) Charlotte Area. He tuned My in law's Lightning . We didn't get quite the #'s everyone else is getting for the mods he's got, But, The drivability is SUPURB!!! This thing will lay sick amounts of rubber in ALL 4 GEARS from a dead stop(no brake involved). Runs 8.0 to 8.2 in the 1/8 on street tires, milking the throttle till about half track. He(Dan) also called about a month ago & said he wanted the L back to the dyno to re-tune it to see if they could put some more timing in it ...for FREE . I thought that was pretty cool of him,but ,just my opinion.

CPRacing is my tuner www.cprace.com . Dan(mentioned above) used to tune for them with his dyno but after several disasterous dyno runs they decided to get their own dyno and start. The will get the crazy numbers everyone wants and driveability is superb as well. Ralph tunes cars differently than alot of people. Most people slap it on the dyno and start tuning for HP. Ralph is the opposite, he bolts it down and starts tuning part throttle first! He gets your drivability like he wants it then he focuses on power numbers. Most tuners start running out of range and call it a day. Ralph will dyno until you/he is satisfied with the tune (most of the time the customer is satisfied way before he is, he is super picky.)

Its really nice to have a tuner locally that tries to get the job done right, not get the job done fast.
