Suggest a Tuner

So when it comes to tuning, who’s considered THE BEST for the 6th generation camaro in North America?

You will get a lot off different answers.
Now to answer who is "concidered" the best would be GPI and Brett Pray porting in no particular order.
JMO though.

Those are two of the best sadly Pray is not accepting any new clients until his website is up.

Realistically, who could answer this question? There will hardly be anyone who would've gone through all good tuners in the entire country just to find "The Best", if there is even one.

You'll be better off with a list compiled from people's responses here, then you can make your own call.

As to my car, it was tuned by Ted Jannetty, and he is very, very good.

I would consider our calibrator one of the best in the business, especially when it comes to the gen v platform.

I have only used Ted Jannetty for my tuning needs. I decided do go with him from reading all of the reviews I have read on this forum and the content that he posts himself here. He is always very quick to respond to emails and willing to answer any questions. I have absolutely no complaints about Ted and my car runs great!

I also wholeheartedly recommend Ted. His knowledge on this platform is unsurpassed in my opinion and his customer service is great. You won't find many of his customers' cars on the fast list or making more hp for the same mods as some others as he tends to be more conservative. Cars that he tunes are in his words "happy" and they stay together.

I went with Pray Performance because Brett is a wizard with these cars/engine and the Gen V is all he does. His cars all perform great and are reliable

Customer service and reliability go hand in hand with “tuning.” Vengeance Racing checks all the boxes. Outstanding, quality shop!

Finishing up a remote tune with GPI and the car pulls very well and is able to drive it around town with no issues with a hi ram cam that has 38 degree overlap which is 9.5 more than mine.

If you go with Pray be ready to wait. I'm going on 4-5 months and just got the adjusted tune from my first data log which I actually can't flash because it says I need more credits.

Plenty of good tuners around that do remote tuning.

There's nothing unique about tuning the LT4. It's basically just the latest small block Chevy with boost.

Lot's of really fast supercharged LSX 350cid Camaros in NHRA Factory Stock Showdown running 7s and 8s, but you never hear about their tuners.

Tuning an Ls vs a Gen 5 Lt are not even close to being the same. There are plenty of Ls tuners that can't even tune a Gen 5 Lt. The Lt takes more fine tuning especially on the fuel side of things.
