Default The BEST SoCal Tuning!?

Hey all you people that have gotten their car tuned in southern California, where is the best place that you have gotten your car tuned before? Like who did the best job and who actually knew what they were talking about? Thanks. I live around LAX just to let you know.[&:]

I'd be interested in some dyno / tune time for my 'Stang... (and my Plymouth).

Wasn't there a shop in Torrance that did this?

do a Google search. The search engine here is out-to-lunch!

Is it this place:

There are a couple members in 2005-2008 who work at shops. Hopefully they'll respond. Maybe offer us a group buy or a break on the install.

Most people I know in SoCal take their cars to GTR in Rancho Cucamonga

I used my buddy who knows his stuff. We're going to tune it using the new AEM AFCD (can't remember the name) I believe to see how it works. Lets you adjust the fuel and timing better. ST and GTR are both good tuners. I would go to Adam first though at ST.

I know that The Dyno Shop in Santee is supposed to be really good for dyno tunes; however, most of the guys I know who take their cars there are carbureted, not injected. Dyno Shop knows their stuff for carb'd cars; I can't imagine it would be too different from fuel injection?
