Tuned by Henderson Performance (HPT)
Thank you Rob for referring me to this great shop. I originally had thought of traveling at least 2.5-3 hrs to either Dallas or Houston for a tune but after talking to Rob he convinced me that HPT was the place to go.
Corey was super awesome tuning the car, taking his time and being super meticulous. Heat and humidity was a bit detrimental for numbers but nevertheless I'm super happy with 'em. It's really just a baseline for later mods. Car definitely feels more powerful. I'm super stoked that there's a great shop that's only about 30 minutes away for all my future mods! Current Mods: XS Power 1 7/8 LT headers and 3" exhaust VMAX Ported TB ADM Street Intake HP: 416.20 TQ: 417.82

You're welcome...
Those are some great numbers with the mods and the heat didn't help any... Monday would have been awesome... Glad you enjoyed meeting the gang...

On a side note:
For those that are getting LT headers and are on the fence about getting a tune or don't want to get one for warranty issues, just be careful. After I installed my headers I had suspicions that I was running a little lean. A little over a week of driving with plenty or WOT runs on the street (pre-tune), I noticed my exhaust tips were still relatively clean with very little sooty buildup. First run on the dyno before the full tune showed my AFR was a bit out of wack and sure enough there were lean conditions here and there. Now I'm sure each car may be different from the rest and some may be fine but it is a possibility. I would definitely recommend a tune to maximize your car's potential power and to insure longevity of the motor.
