Tune recommendation
I am wanting to get a tune and I am between Lethal Racing and Futural Motorsports. Who do you recommend or any other shops in Louisiana. I have 3.70 gears, VMax ported throttle body, magnaflow catback, kooks 1 7/8 long tube headers with high flow cats and a CAI intake. Who would be better for my combo to get the most power out of my add ons. This is for a L99.

I know that Lethal Racing is a sponsor of this forum and have many satisfied customers. I am not familiar with Futural Motorsports, so I would recommend supporting a sponsor in this case.

Pick someone based on their local reputation, tuning abilities, and not sponsor status. Take your time and ask around at local clubs and events.

Yea I have heard good things from both Lethal Racing and Futural. I actually only live a 1/2 hour from Futural and about 2 hours from Lethal Racing so I was kinda leaning towards Futural. However I heard a lot more about Lethal Racing tuning 5th gen Camaros then Futural and doing an awesome job so I think I will end up going with Lethal. By the way StreetSS nice Camaro that is excatly what my camaro looks like.

I don't know Lethal, but Allan over at Futral has been doing this for a long time and has had many noteworthy builds over the years. He has consistently put out good work. If I were a half-hr away, I wouldn't drive past his shop to get a car to someone else.

I'd trust this advice. Steve, thanks for the great work you did on my car!

Yea that is why I was so between going to Lethal 2 hours away or Futral just a 1/2 hour away. I just haven't heard from many people about Futral. However like StreetSS and Frost have said it looks like I am going to go with Futral since it is closer and I plan on getting a cam and heads in the future. This would be best since they are closer to keep modifying my tune for added mods. I want to thank everyone on their input.

Good choice. Your lucky to be a 1/2hr from a good shop. Futral has been around for a long time.
