    New body tuning question.

    I know of a local guy around here that tunes on HPtuner software and he tuned my buddies truck and it runs pretty good. i talked with him about tuning my truck and he said he could try it but he wasnt sure because he didnt know much about the new trucks.

    We talk awhile about it and he said hes only tuned one new body truck and he said everything he adjusted on it didnt seem to affect the truck at all. He charges $150 and i dont really want to just throw away money if he doesnt know what he's doing. Does anyone know a shop or anyone else that can tune my truck that is relatively close in North Alabama? Or maybe can help me with what is different on the new body styles that he is having trouble with?
