New Member - In Calgary, trusted places in town?

Hello all new Camaro5 member and proud owner of a 2012 Camaro LS couple v6. Would love to know some of the good places in town (calgary) to buy some parts or get work done. So far I've done:

Tire & Wheels - Hoyo 20" rims and Hydia performance lopros (WheelsPro)
Airaid thorttle spacer - Improved excelertation a bit (Mopac)
Airaid Air Intake - sold the wrong one (Mopac) waiting for the righ one
Dyno max Ultra flow - Ordered and will be installed by Ultimate Performance in town

I am looking for two things:

1. Fog light - Ls didn't come with fog lights and I want to install yellow HID or LED for lights.
2. Tuning - Would like to get a performance chip and installation from someone local. Even if I get the chip online, I'd like some help from local ppl to install

Thanks for all ya'lls help.

Does it still cover the muffler bearings?

No I did not realize that I can void the warranty by chipping it. Good to know.

Not sure how much work they do on V6's, but their V8 work is very well known. Davenport is your best bet...give them a shout. They are a sponsor of this site also. I'm looking at getting some exhaust work done by them. I have the NPP (dual mode performance exhaust) and looking at getting new long tube headers and hi-flow cats put in by them, along with a tune.

What does an exhaust system installed by davenport cost? I really want to change the sound of my car. I'm hoping to hear a whole bunch of different ones this weekend!

New to the Camaro Lifestyle, you need to come to the June 15th cruise. It is simply the best places to get all those details from people who love this car.

You are lucky. The best modern muscle performance shop in the country is in Calgary..... Davenport.

Welcome to the site.

You cannot chip the V6 Camaro. One of the few companies that makes a tune for it is Trifecta. But it is an expensive kit for what you get. And I do not trust over the counter tunes myself.

Only place in the city I would take my car is Davenport. They probably don't see too many of our V6 cars in there, but they see more Camaros than anyone else. And they do some nice work.
