Default Anyone know of a good tuner shop in PA within 1hr and a half from philly?

I went to tillman when i got my cams and they SUCK i am Never going back there. I was looking at evolution performance but they tend to be d bags unless you have a cobra or a gt 500. I looked at performance evolution and they prefer not to tune my car because it is nitrous but they said they would if i wanted them too, and i am currently looking at dgr performance and they are wanting $500 per tune and i need two tunes. Anyone know of anyother shops? Evolution performance is charging $350 to tune my car and i am happy with that price range and dgr is $500 which i think is a little high, so anyone know of any?

I sent him to Matt but apparently he won't tune nitrous which I find hard to believe

It might be due to maybe not having the ideal setup for nitrous. OP, what mods are all done. Include everything.

I've heard good things come out of dgr.

Why exactly wont matt tune your car because its nitrous? He has one of the quickest nitrous v6 cars in his area, and while I don't advertise he tuned my car.. he did do the original tune back when the car was na

Radical Racing, right across the street from Atco in NJ. about 45 mins from Philly.
i went there and they tuned my car, installed new plugs, and swapped the fuel filter for like 700$ for an initial tune - that included the price of a diablo chip. dropped it off short notice on a thursday afternoon had it fridady night.

when i went they were primarily a diablo tuner, but they were trying to swap to SCT. couldnt hurt to give them a call and see if they made the swap.

Over at performance evolution he said he would tune my car but he does not like nitrous. He said if i am going to run nitrous properly he would recommend getting seperate fuel system for the nitrous system alone. So he said he would do it but he performs not to
