Sorry, if you were in AZ or IL I could point you in right direction.
I'd do a search for guys that tune mustangs if your in a pinch. Both places I'm thinking of are tuners who do mostly mustangs but they have a full service shop too.
What were you looking to get done?

Like it was mentioned, any local tuners that work on Fox Mustangs could knock it out in a day or so. But to that, any decent mechanic could as well.

Might look at a few places toward the Texas area, I bet there is a few somewhat close to you there.
