trifecta is decent but nothing compaired to HPT and a dyno tune would be pretty amazing if he does get it

I don't usually put myself out there to sell my tunes to people, but I have hptuned a few local guys and my own car of course. As far as dyno tuning goes, I sort of prefer a street tune personally (plus it's cheaper without having the cost of the dyno rental) mainly because it's based more on real driving conditions with varying part throttle accelleration, but you can always dial it in both on the street and then on the dyno if you really want to squeeze every last bit of power out....

haha.... I'll have to crack into your ecm a bit before I commit to that one. I've definitely never tuned an ls3 before plus I've heard that e69 ecm can be a funky.

Yeah man! I know you've been asking me to dial that bad boy in for quite a while now but we've never really commited to anything. If you really want me to take a peek at your setup and do a real custom tune for you just let me know.

After the headache of dialing in Kyle's turbo 2.4 (which I'm actually still very much working on, not to mention all the mechanical work I've done to the thing in the past couple of weeks!), a good ol' LSJ will be a VERY welcome relief for me.. lol The amount of tables in his ecm is just simply retarded! His car definitely rips though, even with it not fully dialed in yet. We may have to head back to that dyno we ran on a few weeks back to see what his setup can really do now.

i greatly appreciate all the work you've been putting into my car lately man.. I'm happy as hell the axles are fixed, wastegate is fixed for the most part.. next I have to get those 2 sensors and drop them in.. ******* car keeps dieing on a cold start because the throttle plate doesn't respond lol.. even if it give it gas nothing happens lol. I start it up a second time and no issues .. bastard ass car.. fix one thing.. something else always breaks lol. Can't wait to get up to man boost of 18 psi when I hit the dyno lol
