Default Work Done by Cartek

This past week, Cartek installed Kooks headers and catted X-Pipe, 160 thermostat, and did a Dyno tune on my C6 MN6. The Dyno test read 380 RWHP, and it feels like it.

Dave and The Cartek crew, Roy who installed the headers and Julio with the tune, all have exceptional knowledge & experience with Corvettes.

Everything went well. Max even did a follow-up email to make sure everything was OK.

So I'll give Cartek three thumbs up.

Dave and Julio are good folks. That Roy guy though....

You should see my Cartek C5 rear conversion. It looks like it came that way.
