Call Carmen at The Vette Drs. 631-841-0779. Just added 40 rwhp with Kooks headers and LS6 intake. Worth the drive imo.

You can always call Speedtechnik in Norwalk, Ct. (203) 229-0590. They installed my FLP longtubes (perfectly straight -Borla stinger 2 tip cat back- with no leakes whatsoever!!!). They pride themselves in the quality of their work. If you call, tell them Josh recommended you (I am friends with the owner, Mitch). Good luck.

East Side Performance and Dyno in Wallingford can probably handle it. They specialize in F body cars, but also work on Corvettes. They are serious about racing, and know their stuff.
There is another place in Manchester, but I can't remember the name.

I was unimpressed with Corvette Center in Newington, when I checked them out.

Callaway will not install other vendors parts.

If you don't mind the ride, you can't go wrong with Vette Drs.

J&M Motorsports. They did the installation and dyno on the first QTP header set.
