What happened? 2 years back they bult the highest HP NA C5R w/ fast management at the time at 725 hp or so. They had a dyno and a huge parts list. My father is putting together his C5R ( finally) and I referred him there for those awesome sheet aluminum intakes they make for LSX cars.

any thoughts on what happened to them? anyone know if they farmed out the fab work on those intakes to someone

Yeah, I tought about them the other day. They did have some kick butt stuff but i do remember them being a little too pricey. About two weeks ago I saw a custom made C5R intake that looked almost exactly the same as theirs on ebay.

I am here in Charlotte and did not know anything about it. They have been in business maybe 10 years or so... I will check around.

It is hard to believe that they shut down considering they were always in the mags for new stuff they were doing. GM high tech performance always had one of their built cars in that Mag.

And yes they were pricey.

yes they have, but Bob Wilkerson former technician opened a new shop to take care of old customers. His phone# 704-763-0657

I heard that the investor that fronted the money for the biz pulled out and forced it to close.
