Mayhem Motorsports in Raleigh NC. They've done quite a few heads cam cars, not to mention I don't know how many Vettes.

A friend of mine took his C5 there and it is VERY exspensive. Personally I dont think he does a good job of tuning or making cars fast. Never seen one of "Tonys" cars at the track and I'm there every weekend. He's also very limited on what he'll work with parts wise. For instance, my friend told me Tony will only use one brand of headers (Melrose) as he says all the others have fitment issues. BS! Jason from FBC is at the track every weekend with his customers giving pointers and helping out. He's proven to make/tune some fast cars. Tony's shop from what I hear looks like a museum with a floor you could eat off of. I guess some snobby Vette owners may like that. (and you pay for that too)

I responded to your duplicate thread. I've used Tony's on a few occassions and found them to be overpriced for the quality of service you receive, and I'm still not quite sure I would rank their tuning ability among the best; however, their dyno lab is exceptional. I live in Fairfax, VA - only a few miles from you - and I found it very worthwhile to travel the approx. 3 hours to Ed Hutchings shop in Chesapeake, VA. I provided a link to a thread I started on the CF regarding my recent experience at Ed's shop. PM if you you'd like details.
