I just bought a new 07 Corvette Z06. Who is the best shop in the Chicago land area to tune this car and possibly install a set of long tubes?

With a Kooks 1 7/8" Header system and 3" Off Road X-pipe we took a 06 Z06 (454RWHP stock) to the mid 490's with tuning. Not to bad at all

you cant just disable the o2 codes to pass emissions. you can make the code and light not show up but the emissions test will show the car hasnt completed its comprehensive tests. you have to get simulators.

Not true, they will pass with the rear o2's set to No Error Reported.

FLP in Naperville will do it right for you... the first time. As a matter of fact, Dan at FLP does the tuning for HP Corvettes. Not many shops bring their cars to other shops to have the tuning done.
