All the above.

Still funny that a lot of people build these but never research having someone tune it after.

gotta love it. damn cheap LT1 drivers.

That sucks.

It's easier to name the places that are rip-off artists in New England.

From some posting I've seen, Frank is not wrong, and there is another shop in Manchester CT that's even worse.

On a side note this is one of the reasons I don't mod my car!

This thread is just a reminder why LT1s suck haha

Don did say he could tune them if we coughed up the $$$ if I had a big HP turbo build I would be willing to fork it over, vs risk losing everything to someone who hasnt a clue.

Whats 1500 to a 10k+ build.

Z28 12-15-2013 04:21 PM

I think if most people are going turbo theyd be going LSX anyway.

KLAB 12-15-2013 04:44 PM

Its a lose lose for us. If you want to save money/get experience and do it yourself buying a cable and using tuner pro and winflash is a cheap solution. If you convert it to LS pcm then your spending 1500+ for that, and either 700+ for tuning software yourself or MORE to have it tuned.

I have been tuning mine myself with the help of Joe this past year and Pizza back in the day, I learned a lot from them. It is a good alternative for bolt on's and cam. Changing displacement and adding boost is a whole different ball game.

On a side note I'm trying to make my own 24x reluctor / junkyard parts kit for a cheap conversion alternative.
