Stafford Tx Auto Adrenaline
Just sharing my horrible experience with everyone.
Had my head and cam c5 vette tuned at Auto Adrenaline: price 500$ retune: 80$
First tune was great 393hp 387tq, smoked a lp570 Gallardo on the way to Cars and Coffee.
Retune for new injectors was next since my 28# stockers reached max duty cycle of 98%.
Retuned with 60# injectors car made 431/423!!
Took her for a ride felt a lil boggy he tweaked around with some stuff and made 442/428.
I was happy took her home.
On the home I did a few pulls and it just started to shutter and run hot.
Replaced the lifters and every sensor possible, checked cam and anything related to vacuum leaks nothing... I'm stumped and lost
Now my idle is surging it idles at 900rpm and drops to 500rpm constantly.
And cold starts she won't start unless I hold the gas down and keep it running and it will finally catch idle and idle on its own.
Called G-force and Fastlane
Both tuners told me my pcm was fried.
Just beware stick to a reputable tuner Gforce,PSI,Fastlane, ClearLakeSpeed,510engineering and England green
Just being honest and watching out for my Vette brothers and sisters.

I do my own cam install's. Iv got a shop in league city "Performancecafé" I just use other shops for tuning.
My first initial tune was great by them no doubt. But after my retune for the bigger injectors it just went down hill.

Couldnt be happier. Cam installed 2k miles ago, cars running strong. Made 458 on a dynojet with just a cam/LT/VR. If you live in the houston area, this man does quality work for half the price. He will also be building my engine over the next couple months. Much appreciated Robert.
