Hey All,
I was informed about this new site by a couple of my longtime customers and I have been lurking around for a short while to see how the site operates as well as how the menbers react and work with each other. So far it seems to be a very good resource for folks with the 5th Gen Camaros to say the least. As a paying sponsor to LS1 Tech and the Corvette Forum for a very long time I can say this site is on a good track so far.
With that said I could not see any reason to not become a member and help folks where I can. Quite a few folks in the LS powered world know who I am and what my shop is about. My LSx performance experience started at the local Chevy dealer when the C5 Corvettes began arriving in 1997 and moved to me opening Norris Motorsports in 1999. Since that time I have done performance upgrades to several LSx vehicles from the C5 and C6 Vettes, 98-02 F-Bodies, 04-06 GTO's, CTS-V's, G8 and so on as well as several high end Pro-Touring and LSx hybrids. Heck, I even have a 1948 Bentley Mark VI Saloon coming in for a G8 6.0 and A6 paddle shift swap
So you can see that I am not just a new upstart looking to jump into the LSx world. Beyween myself and the folks I work closely with we have all the resiurces you need to make anything you can imagine become reality.
So the move to the new 2010 Camaro SS is a no brainer. I have a Maggie 2010 coming Sunday for a tune. Another coming for a Maggie install in 2 weeks as well as a few American Racing header installs. I am also working with another shop is Palm City called Extreme Performace to bring a nice Garret Twin Turbo to life as well as a custom gauge pod. I also have a nice cam swap package for folks.
This also marks the 10th anniversary for my shop so there will be some nice discounted packages to folks on everything from headr packages to cam swaps to Magnacharger installs. I also plan on having a car show, free dyno day and BBQ in the not to far future.
As far as the shop itself, I have my own inhouse dyno and HP Tuners tuning software. I do also do some traveling from time to time to different cities by request. I will be in Ft Walton Beach the weekend of Aug 7-8 as an example is anyone needs anything while I am there.
I also get car brought to my shop from all over the Southeast US and it is very common to see cars from the Carolinas, Georgia and Alabama.
You can check out the website at
www.mikenorrismotorsports.com for some more info. The new 2010 Camaro area is not ready yet, but my new site should be up in about a month with a lot of 5th Gen Packages for sure. As an example of pricing, my inhouse chassis dyno and driveability tune starts at $395 for a naturally aspirated vehicle.
I will be posting pricing on some packages for everyone in the near future for sure. Please feel free to contact my via e-mail at
thevettedr@aol.com or by phone weekdays at 407-616-2518.
Here's to a great site so far
Mike Norris
