Have you looked into Superior Automotive? I hear they do and really know their stuff, as per my friend with an 03 Z06.

Hope this helps.

thanks. They dynoed my vette today. 309//327 stock. Great guys, plenty of vetts in the shop. I believe they mentioned your friend with the Z06. They told me they just did heads/cam on a Z06 and got 425 rwhp. If this sounds like your friend, I'd like to correspond with him and get his critique of the place before I consider letting them inside my 01 for heads/cam. Email? or is he on this forum?

What was the cost of the dyno?

Did you just get a dyno, or did they do a tune for you too?

Just horsepower and torq for $75 plus tax. Tuning starts at $225 including dyno before and after tune. Are you going to give it a try?

What is wideband 02?
It checks your air/fuel ratio at part throttle, idle, and WOT to see if you're running rich or lean, and then adjust the programming accordingly.

No 02 check for $75. $150 gets you a full diagnostic check incl 02

I'm back from Texas and just picked up my 99 Nassau blue FRC! No my friend has not had his Z-06 Head/cammed, but they did some work on his straight C-5.

I'll look for you guys around Irvine!
