Yeh, i think this place is a big business, and plus i dont know where you are but im in Cali and everything in Cali is expensive. Check out there site @ www.socaldiablo.com

holy ****, that is alot of dough. the guy who did mine was 150 for the chip and the tune was free, he did it after he put the headers on to make sure it ran right. this guy is a small shop with a dyno that does stuff at night, not his main job and he says he just likes to work on cars, not really concerned too much about the dough.

Hey guys i just gave a local shop where i live a call and i was planning on leavin a messege being that its sunday at 8:30 p.m. cali time. I was freaked out when a real person answered the phone. LOL. Anyway i asked the guy about tuning my 99 GT (auto) and he told me that they could do wonders for my car, he said that after they tune it it will be like a new car he said it will pull like i never woul imagine so now im all hyped and probably wont sleep tonight but who cares, LOL. I am going to definately go for the custom dyno tune since i am hearing that nothing can really compare to it. Oh and for you guys wondering what it will co$t, he said it will be $375 for the chip and another $340 for the tune, i know it sounds like alot but if they can guarantee me that it will be that good and out perform any tuner i am willing to pay $$715 to wake my car up.
Well. it looks as if they use Diablo from the name of the site. They will probably use the Diablo Revolution chip. We ran that chip in the Mrs' GT.

No problem man. Ask about the software, it will probably be Diablo or SCT. Also, make sure your A/F stays around 12.5-12.8
Isnt your A/F supposed to be around 14.7??

ABSOLUTELY, you will run with heavy HP and probably PING like crazy LOL....Nah man, that's REALLY lean. 12.5 is ideal.
