Tuner in SoCal - Page 2

Back to tuning another 6th gen.... haha These recs all still the same? Haven't heard of excelsior before but do know Red barn.

I need a shop i can trust and go to easily if any issues arise at the track etc.

New Era did not impress me with my last 6th gen -- felt no faster than stock and never let me schedule any time to come in to pinpoint tune issue. And max power moved up way too far in rev range

Met the Red Barn guy 'forget his name' at Papini's garage in Temecula while I was getting an alignment. He was there using their dyno to update a tune on a Camaro he previvously put E-85 on and just added a Roto Fab. Really nice guy and seemed knowledgeable. The Papini guy's do Mustangs exclusively for mechanical and tuning and told me they send anyone with a GM to Redbarn for what it's worth.

He was tuning a 6th Gen Camaro with E-85 and Roto Fab on the Papini dyno when I was there for my Alignment.
