Cartek....
Cartek.... OK guys, here's where I tell you what you need to know...
First off, CARTEK has been around for YEARS, so you know they have the EXPERIENCE when it comes to working on your car..
That means EVERYTHING because I don't want anyone guessing or scratching their head when it comes to working on my car...
COMPETANCE...
That goes along with their experience...
The techs are CARTEK are EXPERTS...
Not just guys who know about cars, and not guys who are new hires, guys who have been with them for many years!
That means they get the job done right, or they wouldn't be there that long..
Its nice to know you can have someone work on your car, and if you need something else done a year or two down the road, the SAME guy will be working on it! THAT says A LOT!
TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE...
Did you know that CARTEK does EVERYTHING IN HOUSE....
Yep, they port their own heads to THEIR specs, flow them, etc.
They cam doctor EVERY cam to make CERTAIN it meets their specs.
They port the intakes to match the heads, etc.....
They flow match injectors..
EVERYTHING that goes into your car is hands on by CARTEK..
R&D:
Julio spends countless hours doing hands on testing & research after shop hrs to ENSURE that their stuff PERFORMS!
His tuning is unmatched!
This accounts for the FASTEST & MOST RELIABLE cars!
They KNOW what works!
Proof:
Well, most of you know of or have seen CARTEK cars running.
You KNOW they don't mess around...
Me personally, I have their 4X heads/cam combo.
LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE..!
AND, I just got a custom built LS2 block with every component speced out by Julio and Dave..
My results have been AMAZING!
First runs out of the gate were 8 passes of 10.75-10.77
Dave drove one time & ran a 10.73
I even ran 3 CONSECUTIVE runs of 10.771, which is VERY IMPORTANT to me since I BRACKET RACE, so I NEED my car to be CONSISTENT!
The other day I ran a 10.61 & a few 10.62 passes.
My car is full weight with a nice stereo system> big sub, 2 amps etc.

And this is a car that DRIVES TO & FROM THE TRACK!
Street manners are PERFECT
NO shaking at stops, no surging, no stalling when in reverse, or with a quick blast of the throttle & hard braking, none of that junk!
Stealthy to say the least! haha!!
Anyway, I have posted this before, but if you really take pride in your car's performance, or want your car to be a stellar performer, CARTEK is definitely the place to go..
As a side note, the are now in a BRAND SPANKIN NEW FACILITY!
Experience, performance, reliability.... TRUST.....
Combined with technical skill, are what makes CARTEK the shop it is...!
Hey, I'm not getting paid to write all this, nor am I getting free anything..
I'm writing this review because of the great work CARTEK did for me, I feel compelled to give them their proper due...
Sure they can advertise, but the best thing for a performance business is a satisfied customer & concrete proof/results..
There are a bunch of guys who I'm sure will concur with all this, but since I get so many pm's about my car & CARTEK, I wanted to put something out in public for everyone to read..
CARTEK's main men are Dave & Julio.
The ACE tech's are Roy & Rich & Mike who is also the porting guru & helps Julio with the engine builds.
Julian & Max (Julio's sons) also work in the office, so as you can see, they have a full & complete operation!
If you're thinking about getting some mods, look no further.
If you're not liking how your car is running or think its under performing, again, look no further...
I hope I have helped some people out there by providing a little in depth report.. haha...
I'd be more than happy to answer anyone's questions, not that I'm the expert, but I've had my car for 8 yrs now, and have plenty of mods...
Anyway, their website is www.cartek.net & their phone # is 908-317-4496

The cars they turn out, the time slips, the consistency are the PROOF..
