I would recommend Tom Wong in Vancouver. I make the 3 hour trip down to see him because he is that good in my opinion. He did my build for what I have so far and it is still running great. 0 problems.

Can't find anything negative about him. I'd give him a call.

Here is his website, location is there as well: http://www.wongsperformance.com/

We did a tune to help ensure engine safety rather than going all out and risking the engine. The drivability is really good for me. When it is cold or started for the first time in a few hours it bucks a bit but give it a quarter of a mile and it has it's feet underneath it. I had to re-learn the clutch handling a bit, but nothing major.

Beyond his expertise, he is an all around nice guy to work with. I don't feel like Tom tries to hide anything from me when he gives me recommendations, which to me is something hard to find these days.

I can't say Tom is better than other shops in the area, since I have never used any of the others, but I have never seen a bad review about Tom and all the work he has done for me has been great.

I have never had tom work on my cars but he is a sweet guy willing to answer questions when I have them on the corvette site. He does a lot of the newer corvettes & Camaros.

if its not tom then its Ellis in Monroe for me.
