New intake and headers, Wow!
Went to Corvettes of Houston for the day. While there I had a new LS6 Intake installed, LG Longtube headers and xpipe, CAGS Skip shift do-dad and a few other things done. They were very polite and great people to deal with. The car runs so much better and a lot faster! The dyno guy wasn't able to dyno the car after the installs, but maybe next time I'm down they will, he had to go out of town.
After the Vararam, power duct, manifold and headers, MSD wires, new plugs, this car is a different animal!

Shows how much I know. I didn't even know they do that kind of work OR have a dyno.

They seem to have very good technicians and by the looks of it one guy is C2/C3 and another is C5/C6 and I saw a number of C4's in various stages of repair. They all work together and help one another when the job may require two techs. I spent all day in the shop observing and answering questions on what I wanted out of my C5. They showed me various Vettes with lots of power(700+) and lots of custom body work too.
I have only been there a couple of times(drooling over showroom Vettes) and this was the first time I had a car in the shop. I spent a few days talking with Dylan/Dillion not sure of SP, but he's a great guy who's father owns the business. He took care of getting parts and quoting the estimate. Bryan/Brian SP? was the main guy in the shop who worked on my car. Kathy/Cathy SP? was the parts girl who knew quite a bit about what was needed and when to hand it to Bryan. Victor was the tuner and gave me the impression he knew his way around Dynos and tuning, Bryan also knew tuning and used the HP program to adjust my specs until Victor returns to do a full dyno pull and tuning.
They all were very determined to finish the job so I could drive the 120 miles home at the end of day.
I'd give them two thumbs up!
