Default Doug@ECS coming to Chicago for tuning....

Last Septemeber I had Doug come out and tune about a dozen cars..... Everything went really well and Straightline made everyone feel at home.

Well the time I will be setting up will be around APRIL...

There are limited number of spots for tunes so if interested please pm me and Doug your set-up and what you need done. Straightline can also do mods prior to Dougs arrival.

There will be an on going thread in the Great Lake section so keep your eye on it if interested.

Hopefully you can do it on a Friday-Sunday.

I'll make sure to bring my air mattress so I can crash in your lobby

No problem at all Doug. It was nice meeting different people and seeing different cars than we have done here! Makes for a good weekend.

Does Doug/ECS have a website?

I can't find him on the vendor list.

Got it. Thanks.

I just bought an 04 vert last October and the engine is stock. From learning on the forum, it sounds like the best engine upgrades to stock are CAI, Heads, exhaust system, and tune.(and then maybe a SC down the road) It looks like I could get this work done at Straightline and then have it tuned by ECS in April when they are here. I live in New Lenox too so that is a huge plus.

Any suggestions on what set up to add? I want it to sound and respond better, but I would also like to keep the stock looking oval chrome tip look to the car. Again, I am a newbie, this is my first vette and any help would be awesome. Thanks in advance.

Also, is there a Corvette Club in the area? Southwest suburbs, or Chicagoland? I see that a group meets for lunch once a month, is that a Corvette Club?
