What up ALL,

I’m new to the forum. I have a 2019 C7 Z06. Still under warranty for another year. I’m doing research on performance shops for after market engine builds. I’ve narrowed it down to LMR and Cordes Performance Racing.

Any input, info, opinions, or suggestions on these companies would really help. Thanks. Keep this great content going.

I can only comment on Cordes Performance Racing. Joe has done some awesome stuff. I have seen their work proven at the track. I recently had them do some headers, x-pipe, catch can, pulley and flex fuel on my 2018 Z06. It is an absolute beast. I am so happy with them. Ported blower next. Lol.

I would definitely talk to Joe @ CPR for any questions you might have.

Advanced Modern Performance (AMP) in Texas. They have built the fastest C7s out there. Race proven.

Go with Joe, he's done work on my 15 Z51 and my son has his 09 going in end of May for a cam, headers, tune and mid pipe. Quality of work is top notch.

I'm wondering if Lingenfelter is still a good place to go to.

Be aware our retarded government trying to eliminate all aftermarket performance accessories. Many companies like Corsa, Akrapovic, AWE cannot even sell X-Pipes and headers etc. etc. I figure do it sooner than later. California can fine you and ban your ride from street with just a tune... no time like the present I guess
