I have heard Tune Time was good. But I don't have any first hand experience with them

Ask for Matt @ Tune Time in Toms River. Tell him Curt sent ya. He'll take care of you & get it tuned right.

For a stock 91 ecm, you will need to find someone that can burn chips. If you have an aftermarket management system, a tune will be a lot easier to come by.

My car is getting dyno tuned tomorrow at Tune Time. So far, they have done a good job with my headers. I'll let you know the results tomorrow.

Like S.J.SLEEPER said, call Matt at Tune Time and just ask 732-349-7800. He's a cool guy and very knowledgeable.

Yeah that sounds about right. His lot is usually filled with stuff they are working on. they are never slow.

He means that they are a pain in the ass for him because everytime he wants to change the tune he has to burn a new PROM. if he has to burn 3 or 4 different PROM's you could see how this would be a pain
