Default C5 Modifications

Looking for a recommendation for someone in the East TN area to upgrade LS1 to the range of 450 to 500HP. Need parts recommendation plus installation. Need someone who does this kind of thing everyday with references.

Thanks in advance

I can personally recommend More Performance in Charlotte, NC. Although not in TN their shop is only 3 1/2 hours away from Knoxville. They are very good and prices are very fair.

Same here, More made me a H/C--S/C supercar. Prices are fair, but bring your pocketbook! As long as you're happy when everything is finished and paid for.
