Tuning Options for Turbo 1LE near NW Ohio

I am looking for some tuning options near NW ohio for a turbo 1LE.

I see that RDP motorsports is over near Cleveland.

IPS is near Columbus.

Livernois is near Detroit, but they seem expensive, maybe my price rang eis off though. Their website says 650+.

I can provide my own copy of HP tuners if that would be beneficial.

Thank you for any Input, I apologize if this is the wrong section, but this tuning is specific to a FI car.

Slow motion and pure tuning can do it and they're right there. I like to use crucial performance in columbus. He charges around $400

Yeah my bad. They are. They do a lot of import stuff but do great work too.

If you can't find anyone local I offer remote tuning for F.I.

I agree. It's been one thing after another with them. Seems that way with a lot of other people.

I had my SS tuned at Livernois with a cam install. Very professional shop. Not only did they tune it on the dyno, then they test on the street as well. Car runs great. the thing that really sold me was the walk thru the shop and wanting somewhere that was reasonably close in case I had problems.

a good tune will make all the difference...

Eric that used to work at Crucial is an amazing tuner. We'd recommend him for sure. He himself drives a turboed 1LE camaro.
