where to get tuning in PA?
I live in Harrisburg PA and just bought a turbo Laser w/ B16G, 550's, walbro, AFC and a few other things. Previous owner didn't really drive it and it has never been tuned at all from what I can tell.
Where is a good/reputable place around here to get tuning done? I've searched over and over.... Any help / recommendations would be appreciated!

Actually I was on your website a little bit last night. I'll give you guys a call this week and we can talk.
Anybody else have suggestions? There's gotta be more places around here....and even SBR isn't very close- they are 3 hours from me.
thanks!

There is Adam West (batty) and I think Brad Brooks is in the D.C. area (not sure how close that is to you)

Someone start thinking about a date and time to make sure I'm around or can get off work.

Any day, after 4pm that it's sunny out works for me.
If you are looking for a dyno tune, two of my friends own SGS motorsports in Dillsburg. You'll want to talk to Dave who is the guy that does all their tuning and he is very good. They just recently had a car on Pinks that ended up winning.
But, I think we would have more fun getting together and doing it ourselves.
