Best place to tune in IL?

What is the bets place to tune fuel managment system in Illinois???
I'm taking about EMS or Emanage or Apexi, etc.
I know AMS does it but they charge a lot of money to convert their dyno to read our front wheel drive.

If you don't want fwd #'s or have to spend the cash converting, talk to GRD in Naperville.

I like Devo tuning. Adam is really good. He did some work on my Evo and I am very happy. The only thing that I like from AMS is their 1/4 performance. I don't think they can build a track car to save their lifes, but that is just my opinion. So look at Devo tuning.

I forgot to mention I have non-turbo Lancer. FWD
What I am looking for is a shop with a FWD dyno that could tune Emanage for me.
I will try Devo and GRD today.

That was an embarrassment to all Evo owners. Evo is almost the worlds greatest handling car and came in second to FWD car. I really don't want to hear it at all. I drive on the track regularly and I never let a FWD pass me up, and I raced some really crazy cars my friend. I still can't get over the fact that they came in second. I wanted to crash my car into a tree and switch over to any other car just not the Evo. I think that Shiv is 20 times better in suspension then AMS. That is why I like Devo tuning. They can tune a car for the track. AMS is good to tune a car for the 1/4.

wow! Strong words.

Does Devo tuning have a dyno or is this street tuning you're talking about?

I thought the charge was to convert AWD to front wheel for dyno?? Am I missing something?
