I know of them and have heard nothing but good things. Been to their shop about 7 years ago when they were BIG into the crazy horsepower turbo Supras, and their shop car is a Supra that runs in the 8s!

They seem to have A TON of experience with BOOOSSSSSTTTTTTTTT!

SP is WELL known in the Turbo Supra World. I know they work on LSx's as well, mostly doing turbo builds... They've always done fantastic work and fabrication. I wouldn't turn anyone away from them.

I'm sure they can handle it, but Speed Inc. (a site sponsor) may be up your alley. Give Larry a shout and I'm sure he can help you out with whatever you might need...

There are ls1tech sponsers on this site who tune/build LSX cars day in day out. Larry at Speed Inc and Mike from Straightline are two in the area. Both get nothing but great reviews.

This isnt supra forums. You dont have a 88mm supra. This is ls1tech and you have a head cam setup.

edit: having been at both speed inc and straightline- they have plenty of boost experience. So when your ready for that, I recommend them also.
