Default Tuning in the Pacific NW area?

I live in St. Helens, 40 minutes from Portland OR. I just got done installing my new six in my camaro, and need to get it tuned. It's a 1996 camaro with a 97 pcm, fully redone engine with a fairly large cam. I ported and polished the heads myself. I have HP Tuners pro and an AEM wideband, and have been poking around with the tune myself. But I can't play with the timing and some other stuff safely without being on a dyno, and without someone who has a clue playing with the settings, lol. I just need a basic tune to get the car safe and steady for street/strip stuff, no FI stuff to mess with, no happy gas (yet).

Anyone know of any tuners in the area? I'm going to call around next week and see about getting this thing ready to run 13's NA finally.

Theres also Turbo Technology in Tacoma, they have a dyno. I have not been a customer myself but I have talked to Nick a lot, if nothing else hes an honest guy, if he can't do it he won't lie to you.

There's Modern Classics Auto in Lake Oswego, I read about the guy's tuning ability in camaro performers a couple of years back. So when I moved out here I decided to check them out. Great guy and he know's his LS engines. Last time I was there he had tuned a LS3 for a 72 Z28, thing sounded like perfection. I've heard of TJ Wong as well, been in the NW for less than a year, and I haven't ventured out to Vancouver yet

between those two,
they covered 2/3 of the tuned LTx/LSx cars in the PNW

I hope your happy....You just killed Ellis They will now send out the "MOD SQUAD" assassins after him, and this post...I do think it's funny how many locally tuned cars he has to fix though TJ WONG and TT are two really good tuners also....
