Default East Coast Supercharging???

Hello my fellow Corvette people. I was contemplating doing a differential swop on my A4. Although I have already decided on the ZO6 3.42 gears, I haven't decided on the tuner. Does anyone have any constructive comments about the guys at East Coast Supercharging. I was considering them because they are located 30mins from my place. Thanks from army2000

I have not personally used them, but I have only heard GOOD things about Doug and his crew at ECS.

Chris and Doug are both standup guys. They did my Supercharger/Headers/Gauge package. They will go the extra mile, what ever it takes! There is none better! Call Chris, he will answer any question or get the answer for you. You can't go wrong! ECS Rocks!

I traveled two and a half hours for headers and 4.10s, the job was done in one day and I could not be happier. They know their stuff and only work on C5s.

Like the others have mentioned here, ECS is top notch.

Had all my major work done there, and was treated 100% professional from the very first day I met them.

It is impossible not to say good things about ECS. Doug and Chris stand behind their work 100% and really stop and listen to even the basic of questions.

When they replaced my gears to 4.10s (I was at their shop for 6 hours) I really got to see the time and effort their crew puts in and the care that Doug took with replacing the gears. Chris explained what and what not to do with the car during the break in period making me feel more comfortable.

Since then I have asked questions to Chris and Doug regarding my long term goals and they have always stopped and listened then give feedback. I am in the process of upgrading my car and to be honest I just trust that these guys will do a good job...

Great guys, can't go wrong with them. They put in 3.73 and 3600 stall TC in my A4 about 1.5 years ago.
