Hello folks, Jeremy Formato will be heading out to Denver, CO tuning on March 13th through March 14th We know a lot of people still have cars in storage but we are heading out for a little over a week and figured we will try and get some tunes in for anyone needing work done.
If you’re interested in information or reserving an appointment to have your car tuned, please call us at 813-476-7364. We do require a $100.00 deposit to secure your spot. We accept Visa, MC, and American Express or you can Paypal at: fastprom@tampabay.rr.com
While we’re up there, we can install Fasterproms-ported intakes and throttle bodies free of charge. Also, if reserved ahead of time, we can install our ported superchargers and snouts along with all the other goodies. We’re currently offering 10% off our ported snouts and complete blower packages when you also opt to have us swap the pulley for you.
Our mission at Fasterproms is to go above and beyond to optimize the tuning for your LS-powered vehicle. In addition to tuning, we offer porting for many factory and aftermarket cylinder heads, intake manifolds, superchargers, and throttle bodies – with repeatable, dyno-proven results. We try our best to offer the most aggressively-ported manifolds money can buy and test on the dyno and street to make sure everything is safe and dialed in 100%. We take pride in offering our customers high-quality service and workmanship to make sure you leave happy with an even more killer car or truck.
We have been tuning for over 13 years and have literally tuned thousands of LSX-based vehicles from stock to 1100HP. We are based in FL but travel all around the country dyno tuning and porting. We know what it takes to make a ROCK SOLID COMBO with the best TQ and smoothness. Please feel free to call us and ask ANY questions; basic to advanced tough questions. If we don’t know we will find out. We are honest and will do our best to make you happy with all the work we do!
Here are some of the results from the previous trips to Gettysburg:
07 C6 M6 410 gears, Fasterproms ported intake manifold, 228/232 cam, base line. Then TFS heads only change and retuned. 477 rwhp

Stock bottom end 01 Fbody - blower cam with 317 heads and 11lbs of boost. Ran out of fuel, but very solid for a stock bottom end.

- Tuning – Tuning for LT- Gen II, LS - Gen III and Gen IV, and LT - Gen V small-blocks.
Unlike most tuners, we go much further into the code when modifying timing, air/fuel, fuel economy, driveability, and torque management. We keep you involved every step of the way as we go through and alter your program file - showing you the changes we’re making, what tables we’re tweaking, and Jeremy is more than happy to help explain how these improve your vehicle. With input from your specification, we will tune the vehicle from idle, through wide open throttle, and optimize the vehicle’s full potential for power and fuel efficiency without sacrificing any longevity.
With our custom tuning we address many of the limitations the factory has placed on the vehicle. GMs minimum of 91-octane fuel allows us to gain power if we are using a fuel of greater octane. Later model vehicles lose a vast amount of power as they heat up, we combat this by altering minimum fan temps to help the car run cooler – increasing power and consistency. You also don’t have to be racing to enjoy what we can do for you. Daily drivers can still have a bit more fun on your daily commute. If it’s the pesky 1-to-4 skip shift, the hot coolant temp, lack of power, fuel economy, throttle response, slow or soft trans shifts, shift points, WE CAN HELP.
The car will accelerate much smoother, have sharper response, and more power when we optimize the tune.
A6 Transmission Tuning Thread
The cost of dyno tuning is $425 + $85/hr for the dyno (depending on dyno rate per shop). If you are just looking for a street tune he can also do that for $325 w/ WB o2. We work very hard and are extremely thorough to make sure every vehicle is perfect and you are completely satisfied.
- Intake and Throttle Body Porting
With a ported throttle body, you will feel greatly improved throttle response and in the bottom end/mid range a strong, seat-of-the-pants increase. Many liken the difference to ‘taking about 350lbs out of the vehicle’ or about like "adding 35 lbs ft of torque" by amplifying the throttle. It truly makes the car much more fun to drive. Our Manifolds are very thoroughly ported not only in the runners but also much of the plenum and TB flange are enlarged in order to support more airflow from idle, thru the upper RPM range. The larger the air reservoir is, the less likely it is to deplete the greater volume in the upper RPM. Hence the difference of the '00 LS1 intake vs the '01 LS6 intake, a small plenum volume change gained 10 RWHP and 10RWTQ.
We also port FAST LSX manifolds. We have been modifying our LSX manifolds more extensively than our competitors and found more power in certain areas that others do not touch. We open the TB flanges as well as reshape the bell-mouth port entry and increase plenum volume, resulting in a minimum average gain of10RWHP and 10RWTQ average gain over non ported FAST's.
LS1 and LS6 intake manifolds are not ported, as we have seen no measurable gains in porting these intakes, the runners and plenum are thin and without obstruction. If an upgrade is desired we suggest the FAST 92mm LSX manifold for ’01-‘04 model years or, if you have a ’97-’00 model year, you can also benefit from a factory LS6 intake or FAST 92mm.
Based on a core exchange the Stage 2 intake manifold is currently $375.00, a stage 1 is $300.00, and if you add a ported throttle body, it's an additional $100.00.
Horsepower and torque gains are always fluctuating based on the particular vehicle and its level of modifications, but on average when tuned here is what can be expected over stock :
Stage 1 LS2 - 11 rwhp/13rwtq
Stage 1 LS3 - 10 rwhp/12rwtq
Stage 1 LS7 - 17rwhp/19rwtq
Stage 2 LS2 - 17 rwhp/19rwtq
On the LS2's and 7's in particular, with Jeremy's tuning we have seen 30 rwhp and 30rwtq gains many tines.
- Cylinder Head and Supercharger Porting
Just like the expensive aftermarket intake manifolds, we also understand that not everyone can afford the big-dollar heads for their build. Our meticulously hand-ported and professionally-machined heads are an extremely affordable bang-for-the-buck modification that makes very good power any combination can benefit from. We can reduce chamber size for increased compression, perform a 5-angle valve job, fully port intake/exhaust sides, and assemble with high-lift springs. For LS7 owners in fear of dropping/breaking the factory valves, we can replace them with stainless valves and avoid potentially harming your engine. These modifications can be done to various levels that can fit into your budget and build.
If you own a new LSA- or LS9-powered vehicle, you’re also in luck. We offer full porting service for throttle bodies, snouts, and blower cases, as well as pulley swaps and our very own solid isolators. This porting service is a good, sneaky mod that can give you that extra bump in power to provide the edge or knock down that timeslip goal with repeatable power gains.
Please call for pricing and porting specials for your vehicle!
