Default Engine work

I am looking for recommendations for a reputable shop in Eastern Iowa/Western Illinois to work on my 2008 Corvette. I want to complete some engine upgrades but not 100% sure how much or what exactly I want to do. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have only had the car for a few months but I already want more power.

Welcome to the forum and the club.

You could try posting in the Upcoming events and Regional discussion section of the forum, that might be more state or area specific.

CBI Streetcars or STG Motorsports. Both are near St. Louis. One of the best tuners for both shops as well.
