I would highly recommend masport to you if you are gonna be in the area. They just installed a supercharger kit on my formula. I am very happy with their work and customer service. Great guys for sure.

Though I am friends with a few of the guys, Blow By racing is not a sponsor here, and deals primarily with Stangs-from what I have seen locally.

We are primarily a GM peformance shop, specializing in Camaro, Vette, GTO, and Truck performance, though we have worked on several FAST Mustangs and other vehicles...

Prices vary, depending on what you want done...our pricing is competitive, and is tailored around each and every car we do...there is NO "cookie cutting" in any of the work we do, that includes tunes. Generally, all work is one off or custom.

Hey Chris!
How did it go? I am super pissed that I had to leave town, and was not able to see it completed...thanks a lot for the shout out by the way! That helps build the business car by car, customer by customer.

Your business is MUCH appreciated!

Erik

Hey erik we got the car running saturday about noon and we let it run for a few minutes. The o-ring on the power steering pump was a little issue that dan is gonna address monday morning. Other then that the car sounds wicked. Everything came out great and I am gonna be going in at about 10:30 tomorrow morning and watch the tuning process and go for some data log runs. I can't wait to get that beast out on the streets.

Sorry to hijack, but I need to install a new set of Kooks 1 7/8-stepped-to-2" (they're sitting in my garage gathering dust) on my Firehawk and install the Kooks 1 7/8" (currently on MY car) on my Woman's WS6 (She REALLY wants Her headers now ); how much for both cars?

I'd also need a set of Yella Terra ultra-lites, also in my garage, on my car next week if the work is good

Post or shoot me a PM tonight and I'd be willing to bring my car to a shop tomorrow.

I hope they aren't a sponsor . . . because I'd be getting crap for my opinion of that place.

Moving on . . . PM replied
