Any good tuners in Louisiana?

I have been talking with Lethal Racing about a dyno tune but the problem is that they say that they will not save the custom tune onto my diablo sport trinity. This is very crucial because I would like to have the ability to return my car to the stock tune myself if needed. They said the only way that I could return my car to the stock tune is if I drove all the way back to Lafayette to their shop or if I buy a "box" which is $399 that will allow me to return it stock myself. I don't see the point in me spending $500 on their dyne tune to have to go head and spend another $400 just to be able to return it stock. I already spend $400 on the trinity and it allows me to visually data log along with record 0-60, and 1/4 times, etc.
All that being said, could any Louisiana members help me out? Thanks in advance.

Maybe think about selling yours, and buying lethal s? Another option is email tune unless your only interested in a dyno tune. GPI, FSP,Tampa Tuning to name a few can hook you up. I'd call and chat with a few of them, heck you may even want to drive to one of hem and get dyno tuned

If you want to stick with the diablo; you're going to have to go to email tuning in Louisiana. All the shops tuning with diablo products are in Houston, LA, Florida, or New England. :(

It's one of the reasons that the SCT tuner is so popular. More tuners support them.

As for the box - It's a novel concept and holds 2 or 3 tunes depending on which one you go with, but you don't remove it from the car. A dealer would notice it right away, and immediately void your power train and electronics warranty since they are wired into the ECU harness and usually get placed in the glove box or under the dash.

Not really sure why you'd need to have the stock tune to flash back to anyway. If your thinking you can flash back to the stock tune for warranty work the dealer will still know.

Would Lethal be able to give me a copy of the custom tune to load onto my trinity? Or should I just go with a email tune?

Not sure if you are still looking for a tune...but Geoff at Engine Power Sysytems did the tune on my 1996 Corvette LT1. It was putting 309 HP to the wheels and very street friendly.
