Jeremy Formatto will be out that way sometime soon. There is a post around here somewhere. Did did a good job with my car. He's based in FL but comes out to work in a shop in Dillsberg I think.

I've had my C6 intake ported and tuned by Jeremy in Dillsburg. He does the work at McNews Auto Service. They have have a dyno there. Jeremy is the best. He is very patient and gets the most out of your engine. His phone numbers are:

I am digging up an old thread, but I am looking to have my 05 coupe tuned, and keep seeing "Mike @ Rapid Motorsports" pop up, but the phone number above has been disconnected, I sent an email to info@RapidMotorsports.com and waiting for a reply

Who else in Pennsylvania is good for tuning?

Thanks!

If your already looking to drive that far just continue on the turnpike a bit farther to ECS.

Mcnews is not known for the LS motors but are an awesome shop, they have an ace just down the street, Dennis Wheet, who is nationally known for LS motors and porting heads who uses Mcnews for his tuning (dyno). Let me know if you need any information, they got me close to 600 in my Z.

We are in West Chester, PA and charge a flat $350 for most tunes, half price for retunes in the same category, and I even schedule weekends (with the wife's approval lol). The only day I don't tune presently is Monday as my son is only in daycare 4 days a week.

I vouch for Mike and County Corvette. I got my Camaro tuned there and was very pleased with the crew. I've done some mods and need to take it back so this reminds me!

Another bump for ya. Last time was Mike tuning dyno tuning my car after Mike stopped by my house real quick to install a tune just to get it up and running.

At any rate after I finished the install a couple of weeks later, I drove the 45 minutes to your place and then did several dyno pulls, we finished after a hot engine and a slipping belt at 595 rwhp.

If there is any way for me to drop off the car a day or two before so he can pull it out fresh and cooled down and get optimal numbers and tune I'd appreciate it.
