FSP pushes out some high hp stuff.

What's your location? I have a few shops here locally that I'd trust with my junk.

Stay away from both of those listed above. Either wait for Futral or deal with D3 or Vengenace. I'm very confident will be and better than ever. Hate what happened to those great guys and some of my friends cars at the shop.

I hated seeing this on fb, at least the crew are alright even if some suffered some loss. Cars can be replaced...sucks for the customers involved but they will be taken care of.


I'll bet they get back on their feet quickly OP; I'd wait it out!

Why stay away from them? Northshore speed did my tune a year ago....and it is spot on. Fuel/air/timing trims are on the money with ZERO knock via hp tuner data logging

You got lucky a lot of my friends didn't. I'll leave it at that.

Damn man that sucks to hear and see. I know a few guys that got their cars built at Futral and they are all sick!! Hopefully everything works out for them and those customers.

I got my car built by Randy at Ragin' Racin' in Scott. Right outside of Lafayette. Cam, headers/exhaust, FAST 102 intake and a tune. I have been nothing but happy with them so far and haven't had any trouble. He's an avid member in the forums and fellow corvette lover as well lol, he knows his stuff about them.

A friend of mine deal with Darren. He's okay and can get good pricing but that's about it.

I'd wait on Futural or go D3... Insurance is a beautiful thing... Those guys will be back Shame that happened to their shop though.
