Default Where to get turbo car tuned in Florida

I live in tampa, fl but will go anywhere in fl as long as they know what they're doing. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Nope. At least not from me.

And my car has been PERFECT... Ran around on the stock motor boosting 8 psi beating on it for a year. Never popped the dipstick, never smoked oil, ran perfect all the time, etc... Expert installs, tunes, and service from Revxtreme, and arguably the BEST tunes from Jeremy Formato. What better service do you want out of Tampa?

If it has to be an alternative, then maybe consider Next Level Performance.

I called them over a year ago and asked them to give me a quote on installing a PTS turbo kit, clutch, rear end, fuel, tune, and much more. They put me on hold. They came back and told me they would call me back. They never did. That made my choice to go RevX much easier... Best luck of the draw I ever got. Now they're building one of the most unique set-ups ever: My car, FULL accessory (Yes, A/C too) TA 'Vert with a built motor, turbocharged AND LOWERED... No 4X4 gap here... Their resume extends even much further as does their reputation... I drive for 5 hours 'cause that's how good they've been to me. Don't listen to me though, I'm a biased and blinded RevX adherent.

I was already leaning really hard toward using Jeremy for my tune. I was just seeing what else was out there, but apparently not much. Jeremy it is(as soon as I get my new actuators to run more boost I'll give him a call).

Thanks for all the replies. I know to stay away from next level performance.
