Pickles uses HPtuner;
I hear he does great work.

If you can't nail him down, I too offer tuning for your car.

Not to be a bit bossy here but I read through your thread and if your completely stock why would you want a tune?

Jon;
the LE5 tune is CRAZY conservative...
by just turning off some of the emissions related aspects of the tune he's been told that cars can gain up to 5/10ths in the quarter mile...

that to me says ALOT.

but Jon, you're focusing on peak numbers;
it's moreover about the whole curve - and gains seen before the peak numbers... which iirc are higher than that...

but even still 20hp over most of the curve would be huge...

EDIT:
Come to think of it, I believe typical peak numbers are more around 10hp;
but disabling the fuel delay combined with the overall gains, I have been told that it really changes a car.

Understandably Jordan hasn't been tuned - but I don't understand why it isn't more common... I mean how often do you hear of people spending upwards of $200 for a CAI... which in the grand scheme of things doesn't do too much...
