I can give you some info on LDG.
LDG is still tuning and doing Minis, they just decided that it wasn't worth being a NAM vendor. Minis are a very small part of their business.

I know John did a few "mail in ECUs" (i got one and then had it retuned when he came to Florida and yes he pulled more out of the mail in tune when I was on the dyno) but its counter to what he is about - custom tune. A mail in ECU tune will always error on the conservative side for obvious reasons.

If you can make the drive to Maryland - worth considering, if not then keep an eye on Jan's where abouts.

you can reach john here http://www.luckydoggarage.com/ and he has switched the brand to Behe performance.

normally a head and injectors will be one of the last performance mods done so yes a tune would be good afterwards
