+1 for RPM SPEED CENTER in French Camp. Luis is very knowledge and knows what he's doing when it comes to tuning. Definitely check him out

I would use RPM, they had no hesitations tuning my fox..
331, V3 S-Trim, Anderson Cam 1.7's, SVO-X Heads, Box intake... It took quite some time to even out but it came out fantastic, not to mention the 245's on the rear had a hard time planting on his roller.

Greg's good but it can be a pain in the ass getting a hold of him. He did my tune when I lived down there, tried to get him to check something for me and change it remotely but I gave up after a while since he wouldn't return my calls or email.
The way things have been looking lately, ill probably just tune myself.

Shaun wouldn't tune my car because it was to modified for the setup I have. AOP did a good job on my tune car made good power. I had it retuned by Bob Kurgan last time he was in SAC. Let's just say it ran better and my MPG consumption was great not that it mattered much. Kurgan = more power with less timing and boost. Best tune to date!!

Sounds like a lose/lose! Iol damn!
I'm going to use RPM I am thinking. His prices are a little more then the other tuners. But he called me and talked to me and seemed very knowledgable. Willing to work through issues, not wanting to turn away work or be too picky! I like that

It depends on the setup. 1Nastysvt knows more about pricing than I do.

Well I asked RPM on 2 cars and he told me $600 each one. He basically said and non-factory power adder car is $600. It's the most I have ever seen but like I said. He is not picky. And returns calls

That's cheaper than AED, I paid $700 on my supercharged Cobra, RPM bought my gt4276 turbo and got it to make 1000rwhp on a 351, I will be using them in the near future
