Default Big props to MTI!

Just wanted to say thanks to all the guys at MTI. They did a real nice job on some work I had done to my new C6. Got me in, got me out, car looks, and runs great! Thanks again guys!

Now when is the next Katy Meet

We're not that old Tony LOL!

The Black formula made it to about 500miles before the motor got yanked. The new C6 only made it to 600mi. I put a procharger D1SC kit on it, longtubes, xpipe. Thats all I plan to do for performance mods for now. I wanted a setup that would put down 500rwhp, and sound stock. The setup made like 540rwhp with the biggest pulley ( ultra low boost for Nick ), drives great, stock.

Mike does alot of the work for me, and dad. He always has done a great job for me. I actually talked with many of the shops in Houston, since we are fortunate to have a lot of good LSx shops here. It never hurts to shop, especially since I have alot more I want to do to this car. Ultimately it came down to ease of getting the job done. I literally live just minutes from MTI, and I know Jason and his crew would definately get the job done the way I wanted. I definately wouldn't hesitate to take the car to Mike, but my dad is trying to monopalize Mike's time these days

Thanks man, I picked up a montery red Z51 A6. I did sell the C5, the new owner lives in the Alvin/Manvel area. As soon as I get some free time, it will be time to start round two of modding
