Default ECS will do it

Well I'm finally going to do it. After much research I feel ECS is the best choice for my supercharging needs. I have called these guys in the middle of the day and they stopped whatever they were doing to answer my questions. Has anybody used them and how was your experience with them as well the NOVI?

I feel the ECS Paxton Kit is the best setup out there.

You need to fill out your info. so we know where you live, what car you have etc.

Awesome team over at ECS!

I consider them Corvette artists. Rarely do I find someone that works on my cars where I evaluate their work and find that I cannot find anything I could do better. When they installed my S/C that is exactly the way I felt.

I don't think you could make a better choice.

Thanks everyone for making my decision even easier. I live in Long Island, N.Y. ,and I will be passing by a couple of famous shops. I'm going to install a charger and full header/exhaust as well a clutch. I'm looking for 550rwhp.

I would.

It could/should make your stock engine last alot longer, plus when/if you go forged you should get it anyway.
