Midwest Tuners?

As the quite sure where to put this so I figured just a general area would get it some attention.

Does anyone in the NE/IA area know of anywhere to get their Mini dyno tuned? I'd rather avoid a canned tune but if that's my only option for a reputable tune then I will go that route.

Just trying to plan ahead for when I grab a header, pulley, cam, and injectors. Currently I only have an exhaust, and intake. I'm looking at an RMW cam and injectors plus a 16% pulley.

Not sure if this will help get your answer, but try posting in the regional section of the forum here. You also might be able to find a post in that section that maybe will be helpful to you.

Sorry I'm afraid I won't be much help. When you said NE/IA I thought you meant North East Iowa. Which is where I am! Whoops!

Here's a good list of shops that may help. If nothing else, they can point you in the right direction.

Unless you're willing to road trip east or west (practically the coasts) the only option in the Midwest is a custom remote tune from Mynes or RMW.
