If this is Greg from this morning, just give Jeremy a call on his cell. He's in Orlando today and Gainesville tomorrow, but could do it after that.
I can vouch for waiting for him, as he was the only one who tuned my SS EVER, 869 to the wheels aint bad.

Whatever. Anyone can get 800 hp to the wheels.
Oh, wait. NICE NUMBERS!
Good luck with the tune. Jeremy did my car first go around after the blower. Nice guy. Car ran fine afterwards.

Funny. I am wimping it. 458hp on about 5.25# of boost and cam, and I am calling it quits. I have a thing with the number 427 (old school cool big block number....), so I am saving my penny's. My minimum goal is 800. My dream is 4 digits. I have to upgrade the head unit, trans, rear end, blah blah..so this will be quite a while....

RevXtreme have moved to the Sarasota area.
I can recomend Precision Motorsports of Florida. Bob does a great job of tuning. He tunned my car and it drives like stock with its .600 lift plus cam. Only exception it has a rumble in the back. Haha.
Just my 2 cents. Go with someone who you feel comfortable with.

The only reason it blew a gasket was because you tried to chase down a 600 hp vette that had a big head start to 200 mph in 5th gear spraying both barrels without enough octane
I have worked with Jeremy on so many different setups its not funny. He has done probabaly 6-8 of my various configurations. I have also seen him tune more cars than I could care to count. Superchraged, turbo, wet nitrous, dry nitrous, wet/dry dual stages, NA with MAF, NA speed density. I have no doubt he has tuned more LSX cars in the southeast than anyone.
Mike Norris would be my second option. He has been around for a long time. he did my first heads and cam package WAYY back in like 1999 and it ran strong for YEARS.

Another vote for Formato here. He tuned both my rides, and I've seen many a car tuned in the Gainesville area by him. He always makes sure you are happy before departing. I'd vote to wait but that's just me.

Were hosting Bob's tuning school here the 21st & 22nd. We are also hosting Mike Norris for those that want him. Both are good, and of course we can take care of you at any time...and no extra charges to use someone else's dyno. $399 is complete dyno & road/driveability tune.

There are others don't forget. If they don't pay, they can not be mentioned here. That does not make them any less good.
These 3 are good though, and are promoters of ls1tech!
