Phil at Tampa tuning is a forum supporting vendor and better than any I se mentioned here.....he goes far deeper and get the VMax CNC ported TB from him at the same time. You wont regret him.

http://www.tampatuning.com/

One call for everything you could want and has no issues w/Rotofab.

I'm not going to get into a debate. Phil @ Tampa Tuning is good but you would be wrong to discount/discredit Jeremy Formato. Jeremy has been doing tuning longer than any of the people in the conversation.

Who else has a 9 second C7 ZO6 a few months after they hit the streets? He tuned and ported and modded that car himself.

Let's just say you wouldn't be wrong to go to either of them. Shall we?

Your lucky. Friends rubbed, anothers friends couldn't even be installed. I could see a shop saying no because if the rub or don't fit, are you still going to pay for the install when it isn't the shops fault? Their fitment was horrible not the mention the power claims were all BS and ARH/Kooks out perform them everywhere.

Mine slipped in like butter, I put them in myself, and my numbers are just as good if not better than most. Formato was impressed with my set up all around headers, intake and TB. TQ was up compared to what I usually see.

There is only three guys that I would have do tuning for me.
Mike @ Rapid

I would have Vengeance Racing do work for me as well.

Is fasterproms even a supporting vendor here? I don't see him, but I may be mistaken. And I have yet to see any of Tampa Tuning's tunes motors blow up.....unlike the others mentioned here. Do yourself a favor, contact Phil and he can show you tunes done by the others and where he goes far deeper for safety and power. Real eye opener as I did not realize how different the tuning skills are out there.

Hey didn't I say this wouldn't be a debate/pissing match?

Supporting Vendor or not the OP asked for reference and he got it.

I think you should think before you throw out accusations and talk down someone in an effort to prop up another.

You are the first to do this in this thread.

Pretty sure I personally said Formato or Tampa Tuning...
