All of those vendors are well known Crossfire tuners, and I haven't heard anything bad about any of them (other than RennTech's prices). Most of them have representative members here in the forum you can contact and ask questions before you buy.

Vendor Profiles (reps)

LET Motorsports: https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum/members/amg-jerry.html
SpeedInnovation: https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum/members/jp-si.html

Sorry, I don't know of a RennTech representative in our forum.

Another trusted vendor is NeedsWings. (www.needswings.com) I beleive that Rob at NeedsWings does ECU tuning as well, but I don't see it listed on his web site. https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum/members/needswings.html NeedsWings is well known for their cold air intake, which runs about $500 and will add $20 whp. In my opinion, it is the best looking and best performing intake for our cars.

If you're going to get an ECU tune, it would be worth it to consider getting an intake before hand, so that you can have the ECU tune include the intake and get you even more power while the ECU tune costs the same. (rather than sending in your ECU a second time after getting an intake, and having to pay a fee for the retune)

Another thing to consider it TVT Design's 250 performance package. It will get you up to 250 crank horsepower, or even 265 if you include their intake. However, it will cost you around $1,200.

Of course, don't forget to check the Group Buys section of the forum. You can save a lot of cash buying into a group buy. Also, check the meets section. Vendors will often attend larger meets and offer special pricing on tuning.

Good luck, and don't forget to post what you end up doing, and your experience with the vendor.
I bought my Sprint Booster from TVT.
Great guy to deal with. I will probably talk to them.
