Don't know about the price, but RevXtreme (sp?)
seems to have a pretty good reputation in the T-SP
area.

yeah..the guys at RevXtreme can hook you up. Jeremy Formato does all the tuning there and has a great reputation. he can do regular tunes, speed density, turbo supercharged, dry nitrous with auto retard etc etc. Click the link to the right for RevX to get the number.

That's a mail in IIRC. Typical dyno tunes run from $450-$500. Retunes are like $125 plus dyno fees. Which is usually another $125.

No I called them to find out exactly where they were so I could come by when I go to Fl and they said $350.

There is also atleast 2 shops in Fl that are $400.

I'm not saying it isn't worth it, it's just the highest price I have seen.

so are you saying iam wrong about RX's tuning price? and what shops are these that are tuning your car. not all shops are equal.

I know I am not one of those shops and pretty sure Vinci is not either. Nor anyone else I know of sponsor or non that has a good reputation. Or a bad reputaion for that matter. Not saying there isn't someone out there at $400, just don't know of anyone.

Jeremy tuned mine and it was $350.00. Since he has been with RX it seems to have jumped quite a bit.

Jeremy does street tuning and dyno tuning on his cars. It is top notch. I'll tune your car for 250. I don't own a laptop or ls1edit or autotap. But I can adjust a throttle set screw and get you on your way ;)

Just a little humor to tell you that tuning is something you do not want to skimp on and can easily be screwed up or can screw you over. There are only a handful of shops that I know of in Florida and they are all over $400.

I will let you knoow when im back down there. there is one in Port (something) don't remember the name, they just build my friends 383 for his T/A and do tunning every day, they are $450.

And i'm not saying all tunning is equal I know it is a skill that has to be learned, I'm ot a moron. You make it sound like it has to cost you $500 or its not good. So I guess TSP doesn't do good tunning right?
I'm done with this conversation I was just saying that seemed high to me compared to a lot of other places.

I've known Jeremy since when he was with Antivenom, before RX.
He road tuned my car for me and it made a hell of a difference. He also quoted me prices on some parts that were better than anyone elses. And he stood behind his product, I like that.
His Dad was/is a tuner and Jeremy learned well. When you are the only game in town, you can usually name your price. And don't forget, he travels a lot tuning out of town.
There are other people around like mrr23 from Orlando, but not a lot of people know about him, they will. He read a code for me and took care of the problem in about 5 minutes, no charge. Can't beat that.

Well thank you all very much. You are way too kind.
I hope that I can help you out and I promise that it will be worth you while.

i'm not a tuner by any means. i just have a scanner. i use the vinci handheld tuner for my cars. refresh my memory on what i did for you. unless this is darkangelSS from scfba.net. you'd think i'd remember a redhead :P

EDIT: nevermind, it is you. just read one of your posts about your TPS. last i saw, you were blonde. :P
