They are located at the intersection of Lake Forest and I-5. Their formal address is 51 Auto Center Dr. #8 Irvine, CA 92618. They can be reached at 949-830-8388. Ask for Sean Reis, he is the owner/ manager of OCC.
All of my C6 Z06 mods have been installed by OCC and I could not be happier with their work and attitude. The shop is clean and OCC guys know Corvettes.

I dropped by their shop and Sean gave Frank & I "the tour." Looks like an "A-1" operation for Corvette track prep. He is 2 weeks out so plan this when you want to get something done. They do have a Dynojet,BTW.

Don't believe anything you read about them. They suck. Sean will steal your wife and drive your car into the ground. Just ask Ed. That's what happened to him. And......some will claim that he even keeps his shop open after hours to get your car ready for the weekend....but we all know that's not true.....that's when he runs his chop shop. Don't believe me? Stop by and see that chopped up vette in the back of his shop. Sure.....he'll tell you it's a donor car for his Factory Five GTM Supercar......but yeah, sure, like I believe that. I've even heard that he steals children in his off time. Why else would he have an x-box in his waiting room?

That is priceless!...some imagination there buddy!
In all seriousness though, OCC is top notch and I am trusting them with my wanna be world challenge, GT1, ALMS track car project...debut to be at Corvette Days at Spring this November...put it this way, I took a loan against the homested to finance OCC's prowess...
Write up soon to follow...

Then, Sean calls me at home that night to "see if everything is OK". I know that is 'code' for "hopefully he's not home and I can talk to his wife"
We all know your game Sean. Give it up.

There's no secret Sean....the veil can't hide the bad make-up either. Oh, and loose the red high heels and mini skirt.... I know I drove a long way to have you work on my car and you wanted to leave a BIG first impression but, I wasn't impressed
No lip stick smudges on the car either please...we all know you love Corvettes
I think Dr. Phil has a 12 step for "men in drag" issues
