With the quality of shops you have in Columbus, I would schedule some dyno time/tune with them. You will be getting a tune for YOUR SS and not a generic Mail order tune. Also, Im sure they will work with you especially if you plan on doing upgrades later on.

Probably looking at summer 2012 for the gears and tune... once the warranty is out.

Exhaust and CAI will come as soon as I feel comfortable (wife lets me) spending $1500 on car stuff!

I have no experience with tuning. Never had it done before.
Give me a call this week and when we start tuning, we will let you snoop over Traceys shoulder for a bit to watch him tune.

How about our shop

We are in Columbus and have been producing some of the fastest LSx cars in the midwest.

Looks like the weather tomorrow will be good for getting the Camaro out.

Watchout for the Potholes!

Here is his web page if anyone else is interested: http://chipster.us/mrtint2/index.php

He said he's been doing window tinting for 20+ years and takes great pride in his work. I will be going to him as soon as my car arrives.
Let us know how it goes. What level of tint are you going to get? Your car could be here next week!

Still too much salt out there on the road for me. I don't feel like cleaning it again because there's no way I'd leave that stuff all over my car.

That's true, I will have to see what the roads look like in the morning. I just want to go for a ride so bad.
