Default RX tuning updates...

Just wanted to let everyone know that we have gotten our new software in, so we can now do 94-06 cars and trucks, including V6's. Ryan has tuned about a dozen 2006 C6's and 2006 GTO's with the new software, and they have been awesome. (3 2006 Vettes this week alone.) Blown, sprayed, and bolt ons... doesn't matter, we're making power, with fantastic drivability.

As many of you know RX and Jeremy Formato of Fasterproms have had a close relationship over the past few years. It has been a pleasure to work with Jeremy and we have had much success together. But as RevXtreme continues to expand, it has become apparent that we need to do all future tuning in house, to further our goal of providing all services under one roof as well as improved customer satisfaction.

This decision in no way is a negative reflection upon Jeremy and his abilities. We hope to continue some type of working relationship at certain times in the future as workload may demand or possibly as customer preference. The bulk of the tuning will be done in house by our very capable techs, though. This business decision should speed up completion times and help meet our delivery goals. You shall see that this will make it more convenient for you, the customer.

Thanks to all out loyal customers and we look forward to meeting, and exceding, your tuning needs.

Sounds like the split went well enough. Glad there's no bad feelings. I really like Jeremy and the tuning he has done for me. I also enjoyed spending a couple days at RevXtreme and the guys down there seemed pretty nice.
