I have met Jeremy Formato and his Father was held in such high regard within the Corvette world - For those just buying Corvettes for the first time, this may seem like ancient history though...

Anyways, he does a fine job with what he has worked with in the past - had a VERY fast EFI car... Faster than anything else at the time, if my memory serves me correct

Does he work w/ C6's?? Give him a call - the worst that could happen is you talk to a decent Vette guy!

I used to deal with Jim Formato years ago during the L98 days. He used to be the king of tuning. I haven't spoke to him in some years now. If this is his kid, it's in the blood!!

Jeremy is an excellent programmer. We have referred people to his shop for over 15 years.

After Jim passed away, Jeremy and his Mom carried on the family business and have been doing an excellent job, I know Jim would be proud.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend calling Jeremy, he'll do a good job for you, and is one of the nicest people you will find in this industry.

Hope this helps,
Ed
