Finally after waiting for a spot on the calendar for my girl and pushing dates back due to some issue with some parts. I was able to drop her off at Redline Motorsports yesterday. They have recently moved to a larger new building that is very nice. As you would expect from Howard the guys are very professional starting with Rich who has been working with me for over two months now to get me squared away and working around my schedule and delays. The way they intake your vehicle gives you nothing but piece of mind that its in good hands.
The cars that are at this shop are bad ***... They had a ZL1 they were just finishing and let me tell you that thing sounded evil. They did their stage one build on her. They have a high tech dyno room, fabrication and engine build area. There were a few 427 engine builds in process, makes you kind of drool LOL. I have attached some pictures of the new shop and keep in mind that they are open but work is still on going to finish all the cosmetic stuff. There is a waiting list... Once complete with all the comfy stuff the place will be a haven for gear heads.

My 17 GS will be getting kooks headers, mid pipe and a tune as the first step in her journey. Next month some suspension work. Then later Howard and his team will install the blower, once the car has at least 7K miles. Want to wait to put some more miles on the tranny (A8) in case any issues come up...

I'll post up the video and data sheet once they are done...

enjoy a few pics of the new shop.

Howard and his crew are the best. I need to check out the new digs!!

Steve Garrett

Can't wait to see the updates in this thread on your car.

Congrats man! I actually just emailed HT tonight about seeing if I can slip in for tuning next week. I may see your car if its still there!

The place is very cool plenty of space and as always super clean


I got mine back on Friday so chance are we missed each others rides... LOL

I've worked a lot of tuners in my years as a Corvette and MB owner and Howard and his guys are by far the best. The attention to detail is outstanding, they wash the car when they take it in and wash it when they give it back. The vehicle was ready as promised. The hard part is getting out of the place, Howard is a true gear head. You could spends hours talking shop with him. Will be cool when they do the Cars and Coffee event there. We chatted about the best type of blower for what I used the car for and why. All honest conversations, they are very passionate about their work.

I have attached the dyno run after they were done. Keep in mind these numbers are with some very minor mods:

INJEN CAI
Tony Mamo Ported TB
kooks Headers
3" kooks Xpipe no CATS
Akrapovic Axle back exhaust
AFM turned off
Redline Tune


I started a thread with the video of the start up sound clip and a 3/4 throttle runs so folks can get an idea of the sound. One thing is for sure it is loud inside the car... may a tad bit too loud. it does sound crazy...

Cant wait for the next round. Thinking Pro Charger now with their manifold setup instead of the EForce.

here is the sheet:

Did you get a before mods run on the dyno? I talked to Rich earlier, hoping he will call back and tell me he can fit me in on Friday. My car will be a beast. Guessing somewhere around 8-900 rwhp.

No I did not ask for a base line, it was not that important to me. These are insignificant mods just getting the car ready for the blower. Did not want to install it till I had a few more miles on the tranny. I figured while I wait I would get he exhaust system out of the way. I'm kicking around the idea of maybe doing the stage 2 work done next month while I wait that way I can get better internals, they put in:

Custom profiled roller camshaft
New valve springs with Ti retainers, locks and keepers
Extreme duty Exhaust valves
LS2 chain tensioner
.080 chromoly pushrods
DOD delete
head gasket with ARP bolts
re-tune

They are the guys to get you to that 800 to 900 HP range...

Here is a small video that they did of the install. Pretty cool.
