Suggested Force Induction Shop in DFW Area?
Guys I know there has probably been a few threads stated like this but I have not found the answer I am looking for in them. I am looking for a very good shop who sells, installs, and tunes superchargers/turbos on Corvettes in the DFW area. I live in OK and there is no one here that has a good reputation for doing this. I had a 2010 Camaro that I had a supercharger and a few other goodies put on at an awesome shop in the Lewisville area but he does not like to work on Corvettes. Any help that can be provided is greatly appreciated.

Lawton has built up a little more now after the Air Defense school moved here. I moved up here with them. I appreciate the offer and will probably contact you for more info on prices but Austin is a little bit further than I would like to drive.

LG Motorsports is currently headquartered in Lewisville while their new place is being built. You also have 21st Century Muscle Cars in Addison. Im in Frisco and those are the two shops nearest to me that I utilize. Both have worked on my boosted vette.

Bret (blownbluez06) is the only one I would trust with my car
... I have seen him fix numerous local cars that were built by well known shops

It is looking like there are slim pickings for shops or am i wrong about this. I know I just a posted a few hours ago but would have thought there would have been more replies.
I do appreciate the information folks have posted in here and allows me to think about where I should go.

So many good shops
LG
AMP
Calvo

If you can get Bret to do it, he would probably be my first choice as Bret is awesome.
Really depends. Bolting on a blower is cake and just about anyone can do it. Now a full build is where shop choice really matters.

I have had great interaction with AMP and they have high integrity based on my experiences so far. That being said Brett BlownBlue is an awesome dude too, can't go wrong with either of them imo. Lot of great shops in that area

They do Corvettes, CTSV's, Camaros and pretty much anything that is LS based.
It was built and tuned by Advanced Modern Performance.

Not to hijack this thread but I am also looking for a shop or individual in DFW to install and tune an A&A kit. Thanks to this thread, now I know about AMP and Brett (blownbluez06)

I've never dealt with AMP, but have heard good things about them.
Honestly, it really depends on what you want to do with the car. If you want a "base" blower kit (525-600RW), pretty much any of the shops can do it for you.

Dedicated Motorsports. Dsteck. Yes, the Dsteck. Austin area.
Most importantly, make sure whomever you use 1) has insurance 2) makes money 3) has the funds to support their work.

Bret is really, really good and who I currently use. His specialty is tuning, and it will be perfect when he's done with it. I thought my car was great before taking it to him, but was noticeably better after he tuned it. It literally drives like stock, you'd never know it was modified if you didn't floor it. I would strongly recommend him, but he is a one man shop, so depending on your schedule he may not be a fit. There are a lot of other good shops in Dallas as well. Ones that I've dealt with and feel comfortable recommending are:
Quality Motorsports in Lewisville
21st Century Muscle Cars in Addison
LG Motorsports in Lewisville
True Street Motorsports in McKinney

I have to agree with everyone else Bret is a bad ***! and I guarantee when you get your car back it would be perfect.
