Looking for a tuner near Springfield Mo

As the title describes I looking for someone that has knowledge about tuning on the PFC. I just purchased a datalogit as well and I don't mind learning how to tune the FD myself but i'm pretty new to this. So if anyone is around the 417 area let me know, there might be a few beers included :-)

As far as tuning goes around here I'm pretty sure you're on your own. You might do well to ask some local guys on 417racing.com as there are several guys who tune pistons but I wouldn't expect too much on our side.

Ok, I figured there wasn't anyone locally that tuned our cars in general... I have been out of the scene for a few years for college and I figured there might have been someone within that time frame who knew how to tune. I have managed to get the car to idle and run more smoothly for around town driving. I have spent the past several days pouring over posts and comments people have done for tuning, and it seems like it's been working better and better each new log I do, especially after I make my adjustments.

I'll have to go up to K.C. or St.Louis to have it tuned by a pro on a dyno still. But thanks for the feedback guys!

Figures, before I left for college in 04' I started up the club. It was doing pretty well and we had several meets, especially with the kansas city guys. It was a lot of fun, but it seemed after I got rid of my FD and went out of state for school things died down ALOT! But now I'm back with a new toy and trying to get things going again.
