Default Speed Inc. in Schaumburg il.?

I was checking around for a nearby shop that specializes in Corvette for a few minor things I want done. I found this place, that is a forum vendor and they are only a few minutes from my house. Has anybody had experience with them?

I've heard a lot of good things about them, and am planning to go to their open house next Saturday to inquire about some potential work myself. If this nice weather can hang around...I'll be driving the Vette. :steering:

There's a few other shops/tuners around the Chicago area, all of them have great reputations as well... FLP in Naperville (also a supporting vendor) does good work, HP Performance in Mundelein, Powerhouse Performance in Orland Park...there's another one I know of too, but I can't think of the name at the moment.

:cheers:

Tom Izzo the owner has a Z06 and the crew over there is very meticulous.

They dropped in my 9:1 motor and tuned it.

I got my roll bar installed by them and several people have commented that it looks factory.
