WHOA,,,,

I think there was a less than positive post that you need to review!!!!


You read and make your OWN decision!!!

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/tran...-a-t-trim.html


IMHO,, I would look else where..

That being said, If it were me, I would find some local forum members who are willing to help you with the install and do it your self.

If thats not possible,, keep your feelers open for a shop that can do a good job with the install and the TUNE!


You also need to post how FAR you are willing to drive for the shop to do the work.

like Bill said any "performance shop" that can't follow simple step by step instructions probably won't be in business long enough to finish your ride!

If you were willing to travel to east Texas, I assume your open to travel to Jacksonville, FL? Probably much closer for you anyways.

If so, I can recommend an excellent shop that specializes in GM vehicles including, but not limited to, Corvettes.
