Default Performance shop midwest

I want to change the heads/cam/intake on my 2000 A4 vert. I live about 60 miles from chicago and am looking for a shop that can advise and install these items and tune the car.Traveling to other areas of the midwest are not out of the question. I would like to get to the 430-450 hp range. I have already installed BB exhaust and blackwing air filter. All suggestions appreciated.

We have some great packages going on right now, and a lot of nice instant savings!

We have a nice package with our stage 2 set up (IPS CNC ported stage 3 cyclinder heads, stage 2 cam, P&P throttle body and intake ect.) This will make your targeted horsepower and drive very well. You can attest to our ability from some of our recent projects which are found on our website. www.ipsmotorsports.net

I would be glad to help you out if your willing to travel for some great products and service.

They did my Cam/Gears/Stall/Tune...Very happy with the car. Mike can tune the hell out of a big cam to make it drive like stock. Great customer service as well. They have some good deals going on right now.
