Nelson Tune

Anthonyb · April 30, 2010

I want to get a custom tune. I would get a blackbear, but I live in south texas and I have the 6l90 trans so I must do this in person. I do have the option of using Nelson tune. Anyone who has head experience with Nelson, please let me know your experience. The reviews I have seen are older , but mostly positive. The only other gripe is he was expensive. He quoted me $300 which sounds reasonable. I currently have an Edge CS, but want my trans tuned.

He's another awesome tuner. You won't go wrong with him. He's been doing it along time and was very very popular a little while back. I just don't believe he's as active on the forums and has a performance shop.

I'd do nelson if I didn't have BB

I've never heard anything bad about him. Being local is definitely a bonus.

+1 on being local and reputable. There's no substitute for in-person (or otherwise live) tuning. I'm going with Wheatley for the same reasons.

Nelson is active on his own forum, LS1Truck.com.

You won't be sorry bro. He tuned my truck. I went with the hand held option instead of the PCM. I just downloaded my stock settings and emailed it to him he then sent me my custom tune. Made a huge difference bro. Really made all my other mods come to life. I went with the hand held option so that when I send my truck in for warranty work I can put the stock settings back in and the dealership has no idea that it has been tuned ;) Allen is the man bro he will take care of ya for sure.
