I saw a post from earlier asking a similar question out of Tn. I looked up most the listed shops and all of them were 400miles or more from me.

I was hoping that there might be a member who could name a reputable GM performance shop to work on my 02 Z closer than 400 miles. I live in Diamondhead MS which is down on the gulf coast about an hr from New Orleans, any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am close by in Mandeville La with a 2001 Z06. I will be watching this thread looking for the same answer. Thanks

Well it's been over a week and no replies yet so I'm not getting my hopes up too much. I did go the other list from another poster out of TN asking the same thing, and here is what I found so far (at least those with websites and not just Facebook pages)

1) DBR High Performance in TN, 478 miles from me.
2) Vengeance Racing in GA, 454 miles.
3) Serious HP in Texas, 400 miles.
4)LSX Atlanta in GA, 433 miles.
5) Spartan Performance in GA, 455 miles.

Now these distances are all from my house in Diamondhead. At this time I'm trying to figure out everything I want to do then I'll make some calls and read reviews (which I have been doing). It does not look like there is anyplace really close to either of us, but who knows maybe someone will chime in.

it's worth the drive to Cumming Ga. Vengeance Racing Believe me it's worth it!

That's the shop I was originally looking at, but just saw that the shop(Cunningham Motorsports) that tuned my car when I lived in So Cal is closing and moving to Texas so I might wait to see where they go because I really liked them. Still would like to find a more local shop to maintain and cont. mods to my Z and any other future projects( just can't seem to leave things stock).

Anyone familiar with Ragin Racin, just found them online and only 177 miles from me so they may be an option. Still leaning towards Vengeance Racing and Serious HP at this point. My guy from Ca decided to stay in Cali, dammit.

Ditto on this

Agreed 100%!! I have had a complete build done at VR on my 2018 SS1LE (864 rwph, no meth) and Stage II bolt on deal on my 2018 Z06. Ron and his crew are first class all the way. It is worth the drive or transport to Georgia to have them set you up with whatever you want to do. Vengeance FTW!!!!

I called and spoke to David at VR yesterday and that is probably where I'm going to take it, just wish it was not sooooo far from me.

It will be well worth the trouble. They have a transport service that will pick your car up and return it to you, if you don't have a trailer or don't want to drive. Patrick has transported cars for me several times and he will take care of your car like it his own. I have had a bunch of work done on several cars done at VR, and I would not even think about taking anything to anybody else. In fact, my SS 1LE is back there right now for a few tweaks.

Another vote for Vengeance Racing in GA.

Well worth the trip.

Another vote for Vengeance Racing and for Patrick if you choose to have your vehicle transported.
I wrote a long post about my experiences with Vengeance in the transaction/feedback section and in my build thread in the C5 General section as well.
They are first class and they stand by their work 100%!
