What is the best place(reliable, great price, and service) to get a dyno-tune- custom burnt chip? And what brand of chips do they use? I am getting my gears soon and next to gain more ponies while i am at it.
thanks:D

I would go with an Autologic chip. They have more stuff that can be tweaked by the tuner than either Diablo or Superchip.
If you are N/A you are most likely not going to see much gains from a chip. If you really want to do it, I would wait until you have completed ALL the bolt ons.
You can use a speedo corrector like the Abbot ERA until then.

Yeah, thanks sparky, you are correct, i will just correct it abbott.
what about the steeda timing adjuster and pullies, how much will they help me?

The pullies made a noticeable improvement in my car...the timing adjuster did to, but I couldn't get much use out of it because I was detonating even at stock timing. If you have no detonation problems, you can see like 10hp from bumping your timing up to 14degrees.

Thanks sparky, what if i plan on using a NX wet kit in the future, would i need to get a custom chip for better nos use?
If so, maybe i should just get a custon autologic tune now for the gears and then again when i get the NOS?

I don't know too much about nitrous, but I do know that a lot of people that have them go with a flip-chip....a chip with 2 programs on it...one for regualr street and one for when you are on the bottle. Thats getting kind of expensive though. PLus you will be looking at $150 or more every time you get any chip retuned.
