Mail order tuner ? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Risingson05 · 01-15-2020, 11:17 AM

Hey guys . Idk if this has been discussed before and if it has , I apologize in advance . As I live in ak we only have one dyno in the state , and it’s in the next town over . I’m wondering if y’all are going off of dyno tune only ? Or do some of you guys have mail order tunes ? If so who do you guys recommend ? I’ve been dealing with black bear in the past but that only for trucks as I’ve been out of the muscle car game for a bit .. like to try someone new this time around if I can

There are several good vendors on here that take the time to do a mail order tune properly. Pick one of those and you'll be good!

+1 before I went full retard with the mods, he helped me with my header/exhaust/intake mail order tune. Easy to talk to and get in touch with if I needed anything.

Ted has done the tuning on my car and will continue to get my business. He is super knowledgeable all around.

My car is making north of 700 whp and drives like completely stock( or better )

I just used Justin from Blackbear on my daughters Camaro since I already own an Autocal. Local dyno guy wanted $800 to tune a cam and gear change.

Silver14 · 01-23-2020, 02:45 PM

What do you plan on using to tune the car? If HP Tuners, I've been happy with Patrick Guerra.

Justin tuned my truck aswell and did a good job ,I was impressed on how it woke up my truck and especially after the cam swap and other mods that I have done .

Problem with black bear though ,is communication is pretty difficult as you can only talk to Justin thru emails, and I feel with the Z and mods that I’m planning on doing I’m gonna need someone alittle more available per say .

Yeah for me it’s a toss up for now I think I’m narrowing it down to hp or sct .

Heat exchanger, fans, pump. No resi yet. Hot weather it will pull about 1 degree at the end of a 40-140 pull.

No, longblock is stock. Only upgrade is trunion kit. Stock cam, heads, blower internally.

Mods not listed are an 90mm tb and 5 inch intake. So bolt ons, e85, boost and a spot on tune will get you some really good numbers through a six speed.

This car runs dead nuts with my buddies more heavily modded cts-v that is an auto. He has similar mods plus a cam and 2 inch longtubes vs my 1-7/8
