New to the forum, EFI Tuner.

Hello All, I am new to this forum but have done business with many of you in the past. Dick Bellville told me to get on here years ago...I look forward to meeting many of you in the near future. I am anticipating going to the meet in Orlando in mid Jan. I live in Florida and we get to drive our cars all year round!! If you guys are looking for more power and better fuel economy I can do it and make that led sled MOVE!
I having been tuning for over 8 years and tuned a few thousand vehicles from mild to wild. Whatever the combination to tune I will get it right, give you the best, most thorough tune you can buy. We also port the throttle bodies for the SSRs and it makes a tremendous difference in the throttle response and bottom end mid range TQ feel. If you would like to go deeper we can port the cylinder heads and custom grind cams. If you are looking for more power without any drawbacks please contact us.

Additionally I travel through out the state of Florida as well as into the North East (PA.) and occasionally out west (CA).

We also offer power packages that will meet your performance goals. Daily we select the best parts that will give the best bang for the buck and make the right combination custom tailored for YOUR application. We are extremely thorough and precise in our tuning and go much farther into the code than other tuners. We tune the vehicle from idle thru WOT aggressively to optimize the vehicles full potential for power and fuel effeciency without sacraficing any longevity. We inform the customer of what is going on with the vehicle explain what certain tables do and how to improve the vehicle. We have ported TBs and intake manifolds with repeteable dyno proven results. We try our best to offer the most aggressively ported manifolds money can buy. We test on the Dyno as well as the street to make sure everything is safe and dialed in 100%.

With our custom tuning we address many of the limitations the factory has placed on the vehicle. GMs minimum of 91OCT 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 and make them much more consistently powerful. You 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 or throttle response, slow or soft trans shifts, shift points, WE CAN HELP!!
The car will accellerate much smoother and effortlessly, it will have sharper response and more power when we optimize the tune.

The average gain for the LS2 intake manifold is 11rwhp/13rwtq. We have done over 320+ LS2 INT manifolds, 90+ LS7s 18RWHP and 20RWTQ, 35+ LS3 & L76s 12RWHP and 15RWTQ and over 325+ TB's.We have had many cars gain much more than the averages listed: 20RWHP from an LS2, 32RWHP for an LS7, and 30RWHP from a L76 and 22RWHP from an LS3. When porting the C5 and C6 TBs 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. 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 RPMs. The larger the air reservoir the less likely it is to deplete the greater volume in the upper RPMs. Hence the difference of the '00 LS1 intake vs the '01 LS6 intake, a small plenum volume change gained 10RWHP and 10RWTQ.

We also port LSX FAST 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 10RWHP and 10RWTQ avg gain over non ported FAST's.

LS1's and LS6's 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 LSX manifold for ’01-04 model years or an 01-04 manifold for 97-00 model years.

We have been tuning for over 8 years and have tuned 1000's of LSX based vehicles from stk to 1100HP. We are based in FL but travel all around the country dynoing and porting. We know what it takes to make a ROCK SOLID COMBO with 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!
Thank you and God Bless

Hello John your PM box was full, Thank you for your interest. I try to pool about 10 cars together in order fly somewhere. However the offer is generous. I do get many people from VA when I go up to PA but I checked it on mapquest and it is a good distance away. I am interested in traveling to new places and I am very interested. Thank you
Jeremy Formato
Happy Thanksgiving!!

jeremy tuned my SSR when i was in clearwater last year. he smoothed out my shifting pattern where there is no jerk as the trans changes gears. also picked up a few HP and lowered the temp that the cooling fan turns on. very satisfied with the tune.

Hey P/P. Funny you should mention this at this time. Just got off the phone with Damon and he said Jeremy is going to be at the St Pete get-together in August. I was going to try to contact Dictator (per Damon's suggestion) and try to get an appointment for my late friday afternoon, the 5th. Are you going to be there? Sure would like to finally meet you face to face.

Glad your still interested in getting the tune. You know Jeremy is coming to FWB to the 4th Annual Panhandle Rally in September is 1/4 the distance than St. Pete would be. St. Pete is 8 hours from FWB, plus the 165 miles to get here.

Did I get you to change you mind yet??

I'll be in NY from August 2nd until the 24th.
