Exclamation ***LMR ZR1 build inside***

Just finished up G's new 2010 ZR1. These cars amaze me everytime we build one. They are simply just incredible street cars with how much tq they make at low rpms! Here are some pics and idle video. I am still editing the dyno vid and should have it done by the end of today for everyone to view. I hope you enjoy it G, you will have your hands full!

Amazing Job Steven and the LMR crew.

The customer service and fit and finish of the kit is second to none. You can honestly see the enthusiasm and pride that goes into this shop when just walking around and talking with some of the guys.

Joe did an amazing job with the tune, I tested the car rolling 50 in 6th gear no surge. I test the car with the AC on at idle no surge. The downshifts have no jumps, it honestly feels like the stock tune expect when you press the gas pedal.

Steven had everything to do with the build. He basically knew what I was looking for from the start, the cam he came up with runs perfect. There is a hint of a lobe (117lsa) as you can tell by the idle video, but I didn't want anything more or less then that. Mid range is just ridiculous, 1/2 throttle blurps and the car just wants to get sideways from anywhere under 3rd gear.

By far one of the best experiences I've had when it comes to modification of any vehicle I have owned.

One thing I want to point out that alot of other shops don't seem to realize. Is the simple phone call of when to drop your car off and when its going to be done. I don't know how many times I have dropped my car off somewhere when it just sits idle for days before anyone even touches it. I dropped the car off and Steven knew how many days it would take and keep me posted the whole time.

For anyone in the market please consider LMR, I dont care if your just getting a set of headers installed.

These guys are top notch all the way around.

No question they will be getting more of my business in the near future!!

Steven thanks again, beers on me next time we are out.
