While this is true, I could have just done a mail order... But after reading all the great stuff about Slowhawk on here, I definitely wanted to go up! But seriously... the trip was nothin'!

Can't argue too much with the results from a 9.5 second naturally aspirated street car.

Tj bring it down to Fran's shop Rpm. Fran is a good guy and will pull the most power out of your car.. Mikey's also a great tuner in the area but I know Fran alot better.. Also I think thats where Beave's car will be heading once the cam (that he got from Fran) goes in it

Listen to Slowhawk. Stay with a reputable site sponsor. Go local, somewhere the tuner will know you and your car. Helps with future mods or issues that may come up in the future with your car.

I can not say enough nice things about Don, AKA Slowhawk, but that is a long drive for you.

Well it's pretty obvious that people like RPM, hell that's like the only one being voted on up there!. Them and slowhawk, altho slowhawk I would also like to go to, they are a bit to far away, whereass rpm is pretty close
