I haven't been tuned by them, Don @ Slowhawk has tuned my car, but I have used their dyno to dial in my nitrous set up. They are 10mins from my house. What are you looking to have done?

I thought back int he day they were mainly an LT1 shop. Not sure now. I would use Slowhawk Performance. Don does a great job. Prices are great and he has a top reputation in the area and on the board.

Nice guys, I was there a LONG time ago, talking like 12+yrs.

Dean was the owner then (might still be now), a really stand up hospitable fellow.

Like mentioned they did a few LT1's back in the day, Dean owned a black vert TA.

Just to throw it on the rollers I wouldn't hesitate, but for work I really don't know much about them now. Aything I can't do myself my car goes to one place most of the time

I've used them since Dean owned it. Did not have a good experience. If you are seriously considering them PM me and I will share. I'm not one to broadcast my issues, expecially when it was probably 5 years ago at this point, and they probably aren't on here to tell their side of it.
