LT1 dyno tune in atlanta?

My car (1995 M6 LT1 Transam) doesn't seem to be running right and I am wondering if I need to put it on a dyno and get it properly tuned. (I currently have a old pcmforless internet tune) Does anyone know of a good tuner in atlanta? Preferably north west but I'll drive a way to go to someone that knows what they are doing.

Thanks

Dan

Re: LT1 dyno tune in atlanta?

How long ago was the tune and did it use to run better with the current tune. It could vary well be something wrong with the car and not the tune. What is the car doing that makes you suspect a bad tune? I thought the samething and ended up being bad parts that needed replaced.

Re: LT1 dyno tune in atlanta?

I think it was running fine when I first tuned it but now it seems to be lacking power, and smells like its running rich...I figured that if it was something going out they could tell when its on the dyno...I really dont want to throw random parts at it. Plus I figured a place local could do a better tune than the internet one.

Thanks

I bought a laptop cable for fifty dollars and the software is free. You can datalog your car and upload the file here and have us look at it. Easy to do and can be used over and over.

They're use to be a speed shop with a Dyno in gainsville, If it isn't around the only other one I know of is in Greenville ,SC. That would be about a 3 hr drive for ya tho.

Tunes don't go bad over time. If it ran good for bit, you should look for something wrong elsewhere. Expensive to use dyno to trouble shoot!
