Anyone know of a good place to get your Camaro re-tuned?

Please help? I own a 2010 Camaro V8 SS and I upgraded the exhaust to the Borla cat back system along with K&N air intake. Everything sounds good and drives great but... it also needs retuning. The RPM runs low now and
unless I'm really on the paddle the car will vibrate because of that. And the
shifting even is off a bit. I understand why it does that.
Anyway, I live in Los Angeles and I was wondering if any of you awesome guys
can tell me of a good place to have the car re-tuned?


Greatly appreciated,
Nick

Haddad Motorcports does great work, and they are by you. there's a CA thread for tuning/mods etc...check that out. There are a few places in San Diego also - Excelsior...If it's an auto, which it sounds like, they can do a tranny tune also, which will help a lot!

Here's the thread: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=76053

Stillen is also not too far and they do dyno tuning also.

BTW - Welcome to the forum & the Camaro Owner's Group!

OCD Customs in Brea. Buy the Predator or Trinity. Scott is a wizard at tuning! They are a sponsor.

RPM Motors in Santa Clarita. Charlie knows LS engines like the back of his hand. He is a wiz when it comes to tuning. He owns the place and he does the tuning himself. He has all ASE certified crew. You won't be sorry.

Your car should be running fine with a Borla and K&N. Take it to the dealer for warranty work.

Please take your car to HADDAD... they won't f-around and they will get your tune dialed in PERFECT..

Tad, the tuner is the absolute BEST in my opinion... no stone left unturned...

I won't take my car ANYWHERE ELSE.. they are the best
