Cartek Ruined
All my other vechicles, 
I got my vette back from Cartek on Friday, and it is awesome. I got the car back friday morning at 10:00 and I am still grinning. I had them port the intake, TB, and heads, install a Honker CAI, and kooks headers. Plus it was all toped off with their dyno tune.
I am really impressed with the Gains, 400RWHP and 388rwt, up about 52hp and 35 ft pounds. Whats most impressive is the throttle response, the car revs up so quick, more like an S2000 than a V8.
I am very impressed with the work, I wasnt the best customer, because every time I was scheduled to drop of the car someting would come up. However, Dave was very nice to deal with, and would I highly recomend them.

Soon enough though, soon enough.

I'd tell you guys to update your website because it doesn't do you justice, but you're obviously too busy building fast cars to worry about such things.

I know it is expensive but it must be a real nice place to live.
Thanks for the vote.
