Default Tuning in Hampton Rds VA

Ive been living in the area for going on a year now. I have a 2003 350 with a Vortech Kit installed. I need to find someone in the area that is respectable for tuning on Z cars. If anyone knows of a place can you please let me know.

Is tuning the Z car different from tuning other cars?

Why not just look for a local tuner that has a good knowledge base on the engine management system you are running?

If you want someone local in the Hampton Roads area I would check out Abacus Racing in Virginia Beach. They've been around for a good while and have a full race Z. I've heard good stuff from them with Z tuning and even a coworker that gets his P-car tuned there.

They're expensive and the same car work can be done somewhere else for a lower price..

For Z tuning I will only go to people that've tuned Zs before regardless of another shops experiencing tuning with the same EMS (if youre even running a piggyback).
