Looking for a reputable tuner in Michigan

[NewTekBuzz]

I need to find a tuner in Michigan that is good with coyotes (12:1) 93 tune with a whipple. Any recommendations would be great. Not looking to squeeze hp, looking for a safe tune for boosted high compression on 93. Currently running an whipple box tune. Message me and I’ll provide all mods and info.
Thanks
Tim

Lidio at Alternative Auto is great. He tunes lots of cars, has experience with the Coyote, has his own with a Whipple.

Do you have a specific reason why you dont want a remote tune?

You dont need a local tuner get remote tuned that what everyone does, what mods do you have, Im tuned by Rob Shoemaker

Lidio is probably the top tuner in Michigan. He has been doing it since carbs and distributors.
That said, technology has moved a loooong way in the time he has built this reputation.
Coyote with a Whipple is now a tried-and-true combination. What ever mix of parts you can reasonably concoct has been done. The tune for it is already in a file ready to email to you. The internet is full of reviews, good and bad. Do your due diligence, of course. But don't be surprised if the Lidio tune is already in a file...

Lidio at Alternative Auto is great.

He's supposed to be the go-to person for SE Michigan but my son and I have had excellent results with remote tunes from Wengerd. Your boosted engine sounds fairly common to need the time and expense of custom dynamometer tuning?

My biggest concern is the high compression aluminator block with the whipple. Beyond that, I’d like to know the current hp.

Thanks for the info, definitely giving him a call

12:1 is normal Gen3 compression. I don't believe that any of the big tuners like Wengerd and a few others would have any problem tuning it. They can do remote dyno tuning as well if there is a dyno closer than Lidio. Either way, post up numbers when done!!

For some reason my gen 2 compression was stuck in my head…. Will do

Since Lidio drives, tunes, and races his own 5.0 S650 with a Whipple he has advanced well beyond "carbs and distributors".

That was kind of my point. Sorry if you misunderstood my intent.
I did mention that he was the top tuner in Michigan... And that he probably has a tune already on file... Did you miss that part?
