Default Looking for the best LS Tuner

Hi Guys, I am new to your forum. my usual Caddy forum is getting a tad bet boring. Anyways, I did a bunch of mods on my 2009 CTS V and I am looking for the best LS tuner in SE Michigan.

Thanks, Mike 586-260-6646

I don't know how far you are from Clinton Township, MI, but you'd be hard pressed to find a better bunch of guys as close to you as Katech is. And they might have a little experience in the matter...

thanks

It's hard to define "the best" in any catagory but Katech is definitely at the top.............

only issue I have going thru Katech is that they have "Vector Performance" do alot of thier tuning and they use thier dyno. Katech told me they only has an engine Dyno and go across the street to vector for dyno tuning. For obvious reasons I would NEVER let Vector touch my car again. Katech is GREAT, Vector is a garbage shop IMO

Other than Katech the other big name in town with a GREAT reputation is Livernois Motorsport in MI. Not sure how far they are from you but can't be that far and the ride should certainly be worth it.

FYI, Dr. Phil has been doing some tuning for us lately and I'm very happy with what we've been working on.

Usually. But in this case it's easy. Dr Phil is the man.

I have heard nothing about good things about Dr. Phil and while were on the subject how does one go about getting a hold of him. I just finished converting my 408ci C5 back to NA and I need to find a Tuner. I have heard some bad things about the shop that did my tuning when I had the supercharger so I rather avoid them if possible.
