Texas Drivetrain Performance, Ft. Worth

[nathanf2009]

Strictly Performance prides itself in being a ford tuner. Sure you can go there I'm sure if you're a paying customer. Just saying, I remember when I had my Toyota x runner and I went to MTI for a baseline dyno. Lmao, it was so embarrassing bringing my v6 there with all those nice cars...vipers..corvettes...but I missed that place...I heard the tuner there was the best in the area at the time...where did he go? hmmm

[nathanf2009]

I e-mailed Icon Autosports...they peaked my interest after learning they took over MTI....I was quoted $450 for a custom wide band dyno tune...thats actually very reasonable! Gonna check them out

['02 ws6]

So did Icon take over MTIs cam sales as well? I've been trying to find out a price on either their X1 or Stealth II cam for a friend, but to no avail. Maybe I'll just call up Icon and ask them.

We can spec you out a custom cam for your G8 GT. Just give us a call or send me an email.

My experience with tuners: If you are "self-directing" them as to upgrades, most of 'em will do pretty good work. If you develop a problem, post modification, and you're looking to them for "diagnostic" help; you're in deep hoopla!

Bottom line: (and I say this never having worked with the "mod master"; Charlie) When you get anywhere past the typical intake, exhaust and tune (forced induction, cams, etc.) you are truly "rolling the dice". If you realize this and are still comfortable with it you a. definitely have more money than I do and b. have a much milder reaction to breaking stuff than I do!

Just my opinion!

[GRRRR8]

Basic mods are no worries. Mild cams and small TQ converters are no worries. Bottom line: Anything can fail. Even at a bone stock level. Believe me, I see it all the time. Serious modding is not for the meek by any means. For the people like myself.........THATS JUST HOW WE ROLL! :)

How I roll too! That's why I'm on motor #2, and about to be on trans #2 for my car. Its just another fix for a motohead like myself. Plus, as I tell the wifey, I could smoke or drink or do dope as a hobby like other people find interest in, but instead I mod cars. It may be expensive @ times, but that's the only harm in it!! :)

East Texas Muscle Cars in Longview.

They did my Pedders Install. While I was there they were working on several cars, especially GTOs. They have also worked on some G8's. Stephen is a great guy to work with and also is one of the sponsors on this board.

[ulakovic22]

RPM in Lewisville has closed it's doors. You can add Dallas Performance in Garland, Taylor does top notch work.

[wnt2gofst]

After talking to American Racing Technology I didnt get a warm and fuzzy when asked them about doing a cam, port intake, tuning..They seemed liek lack of knowledge on G8's and like they really wasnt interested in doing it. This was about a month and half ago.

[rmcrom]

There's Speedtech southwest of Fort Worth in Cresson.

I know this is an old thread but I'm going to add a tuner.

Charlie Wheatley of houston,TX. He is a great tuner and has been tuning for a very very long time now and he knows his stuff!

[bwooten492]

When I get home ill add Charlie to the list. I can't do it from my phone. Is he still big into the trucks?

Yup still tuning lots of trucks. But also tunes everything else vettes,camaros,G8s, you name it. Charlie knows what he is doing he is very knowledgeable on ls based tuning.
