Not related but have been working together for years. You will not be disappointed in LME.

You can NOT go wrong with KP Racing. Just got my C6 Z06 back from them and.... it's glorious! Great group of folks over there that keep you updated just about every day. You do need make an appointment now because as stated before. There are a lot of folks trying to get their rides worked on at KP. I was there last week talking with the staff and it's a full house. If you want it done right but don't mind a little wait us KP.

Also LMR and Serious HP are great shops as well.

I was told by VZ that they have Pat G do all their tuning.

I don't have any personal experience with him, but I've heard nothing but great things. And apparently the arrangement is that Pat G comes to VZ, puts a start up tune in your car, takes it over to 510 since VZ doesn't have a dyno as of yet, tunes the car on 510's dyno, drives the car back and makes any fine adjustments after driving. This is the way I was told it works from VZ.
