Thanks for the info. I did some researching and found some shops to be suspect
And some with really good reputations. Pricing is all over the place! Lol it’s really hard to find a reputable shops that care about customers car like their own without over charging crazy amount here in GA. This is my first Chevy/Camaro. So before I blow my factory warranty out of the water, I would like to hand over the keys to someone that cares without feeling “ripped off.” I’ll pay more for better work, but what is too much?

I second that

Experience with LS does not transfer. Could be the best LS tuner in the world. DI is different animal.

Need to have specific GM gen V experience

I hear that from many people. Since I work a lot and it’s my daily. I preferred a shop that can do it all.

Thank you for the heads up guys! I’m getting really good info/feedbacks from everyone. I’m learning more from everyone as I go. Thanks again.

if you want to do remote tuning get a https://thetuningschool.com/collecti...ideband-bundle wide band and a HP Tuners MPVI2 requires 4 credits to tune manual cars. 5 if you want to mess with the fuel controller and NPP settings.

Thanks for the link. I commend all you guys that work on your own personal vehicle. It’s def. rewarding in the end and just make you appreciate your pride and joy that much more. The saying of “Built not Bought”, unfortunately I’m not in that category as I’m not so hands on like the majority here. But I do appreciate everyone pointing me into the right direction.

Another vote for Vengeance here! Got my LS3 stuff from them (cam kit n such) and drove down and had Mike tune it at the shop. Top notch peeps!!

Vengeance Racing is one of top shops in the country in my opinion.

I hear a lot of great things about Vengeance. Thank you guys for pointing me down the right path! I’m gathering every parts all at once to build a N/A car so I don’t have to keep re-tuning. So it’s def. getting a bit expensive but hey, gotta pay to play.

I can tell you cam, heads, headers, msd, 103 and a tune is OMG strong... Especially with a M6, it is pure glory...

Do you feel that the MSD and 103 TB is worth the money? Cause I’m not going force induction route. Either way, I already purchased both. Lol. What brand TB you have? I have the Katech. Most people have the Nick Williams I heard but yet I also heard both is made from the same company??

Is it worth yeah i'd say yeah because in N/A every penny is worth it. On Heads/Cam will get the most benefits tho. In that setup its a MUST HAVE IMO.

103 mm katech... think it is a quality piece, I had it for years now.

Thank you for everyone feedback. Since right after this original thread post, I had H/C, intake, headers w/ green catted, throttle body, E85 etc.. etc... install and had Vengeance do the tune. I’m overall happy with the power. The my car is not hooking due to the power increase. So I decided to wait until I needed tires. So couple of days ago I’d put on rear 17x10 welds rts wheels w/ MT 305/45 SS tires. Hooking problem solved! As I lived in neighborhood with HOA, I kept my X-Pipe and Exhaust muffler stock to reduced the noise level. Well.. I had HOA complaint about my car being loud in the morning when I’m leaving for work. And Mind you I keep my NPP system in touring/ quiet mode and creep out of the neighborhood leaving for work. Thought it couldn’t get any worse, that same person (next door neighbor) called the cops on me. I’m old school, if you have a problem come and talk to me in person first and we’ll come to a conclusion as an adult. But all bet is off now. Long story short, I’m looking to get X-Pipe and axle back exhaust that will connect to my Kooks LTH and their green catted connection. Any suggestions? I was thinking Flowmaster X-Pipe to Stainless Works axle back. I don’t know this setup will work? Sorry for the long rant! Lol.
