Speed Inc in Schaumburg could handle it. Otherwise I know Tom (BADDLS1SS) is pretty good with tuning and I just bought a tuning software program from HP Tuners that is a scan tool like autotap as well as an edit program.

Got any pics of your car? An rx7 with an ls1 sounds awsome!

BAD LS1

Yes... I have got LS1Edit, however its a single VIN program that i have, so i can only tune my car with it....

But i can offer some advise and tips, ive been working with the program for over a year now and managed to make a "mountain out of a mole hill" using this program on my car and went pretty damn fast last year IMO with minimal parts invloved.

Unless you up the $500 for EDIT + laptop+ EFI Live (reccomended) or go for the HP Tuner program like Chris M has your further ahead to have it tuned at Speed Inc. Good bunch of guys, i purchase 90% of my parts through them.

Westech Automotive in Silver Lake. (just south of Hwy 50 in Kenosha county.)

Norm has extensive knowledge of the LS1 as well almost any other engine. He has chassis dyno facilities. He has had several write ups in Hot Rod magazine among others.

Norm did Brad's (BradWS6 for those MFBA members) 382 stroker in this '99 30th T/A as well as the 372 solid roller motor in his '98 Formula he has now. Was some good stuff and put up some good numbers. He also did some work on PSJ's formula, but that put out less than stellar results. Knows his stuff though.
