1993 Camaro Z28 LT1
The weather finally cleared and I took the car for a spin with the new[est] tune.
All I can say is, what a difference! The car pulls hard and has definitely picked up performance. I can't wait to put some more miles on it this week, it feels completely different and is more fun to drive.
Thanks again Solomon, you have gained a repeat customer!
1995 Trans Am LT1
Solomon, I want to thank you, my car is running like it's brand new [with my new tuning following his previous tune by another tuner].
Runs great man, thanks a lot, I will surely be coming to you for further tuning!
1996 Corvette LT4 LT1
I took the car for a ride today, and I could feel the difference in the car's response, acceleration, and idle. Those SVO fuel injectors really do make a difference. I had the car up to 6000 RPMs with no problems whatsoever... don't worry Solomon, I'm a retired PO, and I was taught how to handle a vehicle at high speeds.
I think you have done it. My hat's off to you; I am completely satisfied!
Thanks for doing what you said you were going to do, Solomon.
1995 Camaro Z28 LT1
I drove my car untuned for quite a while, then had it tuned by Solomon; it shifts better, gets better MPG and runs a whole lot smoother. It's very fast.
I am very happy and would recommend Solomon to anyone who needs a tune that dosen't cost an arm and a leg.
1993 Pontiac Trans Am LT1
My car is night and day different from when we first started tuning. I can tell you really know your stuff.
It feels like a different car, like it is making great power all around. Before it kinda fumbled from a stop to WOT. Now when I get on it from a stop it makes great power.
I thought it was fast before, but was I wrong. Corvette owners better be on the look out for my T/A.
1995 Camaro Z28 LT1
I've got a lot of LT1 and LS1 friends down here in eastern NC and I'm pointing them all your way to get the "Solomon Tune."
Thanks for the awesome tune, Solomon. I'll never do another mod again without your tune!
1994 Caprice Classic LS L99
At first I didn't think my L99 was even worth getting a tune, because it's only a 4.3L version of the LT1, and there's no replacement for displacement. But, in the end I decided it was worth a shot, because my car had so many problems and always so weak, I felt it deserved a shot to impress before I just replaced the motor.
I heard so much about Solomon's tunes, that I felt he would be the right person to tune the car. I had been in contact with him for a while prior to ordering the tune, kind of preparing for it and stuff. Then just a couple days ago I felt the time was right. Ordered the tune, and the first tune came in nearly only a couple hours later in an email. I loaded the tune and immediately felt a difference. Throttle response increased, shift points were much nicer and aggressive, including the firmness.
I had the timing increased even more manually, removing all spark retard from my PCM (as I have a faulty knock sensor circuit), and going "old school" on the timing, now it's zero spark retard, very advanced, and running top notch.
Dude, you are the BEST. That car pulled out like my friend's LT1 camaro, which is oddly surprising, because I never knew the L99 could do so well. I pulled onto the highway and didn't even gun it, and went from 0 to 55 in no more than 4 seconds...
AWESOME tune man! Thank you so much. Best 65 bucks ever spent on this car bar none.
1995 Camaro Z28 LT1
I was looking to have the EGR and AIR deleted on my '95 Z28 and was absolutely surprised that Solomon was also able to help with another issue I was having [stutter on the highway]. I thought I was going to have to visit a dyno but this was all accomplished through data-logging and customized tunes.
Solomon was in contact with me from the moment the package arrived until the final tune. I really appreciated the excellent customer service. I would recommend him to anyone, he was able to create a tune specific for my '95 Z28 and it runs better than ever.
The car runs smoother than ever and at idle, in gear at 650rpm, it no longer misses. I wasn't looking for performance increase, just to delete the egr/air and to fix the AFR so the stuttering would stop. The vehicle's driveability has improved dramatically. You exceeded the expectations.
In addition to the Z28, I also have a 2007 Mustang and you must purchase an expensive hand held tuner and the tunes that you receive from on line tuning shops are cookie cutter tunes. Solomon has you capture data specific to your vehicle and creates a tune custom for your car. He does that for less than 1/2 the price of the vendors I have used for my Mustang.
1994 Camaro Z28 LT1
I finally got around to driving my 383 stroker Camaro and I must say that it's really beasty.
I drove it with the stock PCM before I sent it to you, and there was a huge difference. I'm really happy with the tune. You did your thing.
Thanks, appreciate it. I'll have dyno numbers for you soon.
1996 Corvette LT1
Do you have any idea how good you are?
Man, what an improvement Solomon [over a previous tuner's tune]! I got the injectors and the PCM today and put them both in the car. It fired right up and idles the best it has in forever.
The roads here are really wet from all the rain we're getting so I couldn't do much more than take it for a short cruise. I can't believe the difference in driveability. I had a slight cam surge in OD before your tune and now that is gone. The tranny changes like it's a new one. The pickup it has even at part throttle is just great. Just on the short drive I can tell already the gas mileage is going to go up a lot.
I'm one happy man! You have no idea how glad I am to have gotten it touch with you! I can't wait until this Saturday to get it on the dyno to really see what it has (UPDATE: <u><b>337rwhp / 330rwtq</b>, SAE corrected</u>).
UPDATE: <u>1/4 mile time: 12.4 @ 110 MPH</u>.
I just don't know how I can thank you other than to send as much business your way as I possibly can and I've already started doing that.
Thanks again and stay in touch.
1995 Caprice LT1
I got my tune done after I swapped my 4.3L [L99] to the 5.7L [LT1]. The turn around time was quick.
When I installed my freshly tuned PCM I noticed a HUGE difference from start up to reaching high speeds...
I would definitely do business again and recommend Solomon.
1995 Camaro Z28 LT1
I think you should charge more (help you get those heads done sooner [my Z28 overheated in summer of '08 and I haven't had enough to fix it yet]). From what you mention on your website I assumed you were independently wealthy somehow [I'm not]. I've heard that some other tuners command up to $300 for a similar service. This is the best automotive bargain I know of.
There was a lot more to the process than I expected. I figured for a bone stock application there would just be a few standard tweaks you'd include other than the basic fan settings, shift points, and speedo correction stuff. I ended up making around six logs and installed five [updated] "tunes" to get things just right. I was impressed by the detail of the work involved and the speed of your correspondence.
As a result of the tuning process and your consultation I learned more about my car and discovered and addressed issues that may not have received attention otherwise.
I hope I have an opportunity in the future for another tuning session.
Thanks again.
