I have a Newtech tune. I'll be going to Dito's motors in South San Francisco, or Gasoline Dreams Performance in Hayward for a retune when I have enough cash saved up.

Air fuel ratio on both Mine and Josh's (Pyr0b0y) car were high 12's to mid 13's.

Synergy is expensive, and I've heard both good and bad things about his tunes. Steve (Silver6spd) got hit tune from Rick and is VERY happy with it.

Cool thanks. Hopefully it works well. The one thing I hate about these cars are the "tuning" stuff. Way over my head and seems like it can make or break you. I love the first gens, the tuning is with a flat blade screw driver for the Holley and a timing light. LOL

Mike Roman who does a lot of work out of MSI in Roseville is a LS tunning pro. He is not cheap, but will put in a lot of time to make sure it is done right. He used to work fo GM and last I knew worked at John L Sullivan. He is well known through out the Corvette world for being a great tuner.

For N/A, it would be about right, but for a FI or N2O car it is lean. It all depends upon where the reading is taken as well as emmisions on the car.
