Default Professional Tuners School!!

RevXtreme will be hosting a professional tuners school June 21, 22 at our Bradenton/Sarasota, FL shop. Minimum class size is 10, max is 20. This is a Sat/Sun full 2-day class with all study materials & references provided. Sat is a full day of classroom study & work on the principals of tuning on all applications, and Sun will be a full day hands-on on the dyno. We will have a wide variety of cars in the shop from stock, heads/cam, supercharged, and the 1150 HP twin turbo Z06 as well as student cars are allowed. The class includes 1 full year of unlimited email support & a good deal of phone support as well.

Each student will need their own laptop & tuition of $850 (refundable) must be prepaid.
We will provide lunch & drinks for all attendees.

For just a few hundred more than the average dyno tune you can learn from some of the best!:thumbs:

Well this sounds a little more legit, there was an company or individual, not sure that was going around to shops and charging I believe $350.00 for a 4 or 5 hour session in tuning, After the class you would get a certificate claiming that you were now a Professional Tuner
