Default Need a Good Georgia LS1 Speed Shop?

RP Motorsports and/or ModernDayMuscleCars?......They have the same address in Marietta,GA. Does anybody know if these guyz do good work? Fair labor and parts pricing? Any info about these guyz would be great!!! I have a friend with an STS Turbo kit and lots of bolt on's but needs more mods done such as heads and cams(maybe internals as well),custom tune,etc....Please let me know about these guys or who you would recommend in Georgia he can take it to that specializes in LS1's. THANX!!!

Same company, different owner.

I've heard nothing positive about them for years.

Lamar Walden Automotive is where I'd check. Expensive but good IMHO.
Also, lots of talk about MTI (reese *** ) from the vette boys.

I'd listen to Steve here...forget about MTI then. Thats the same **** they said about them back in 1996 along with LOTS of other BAD stuff.
