Hypothetical question - Performance Shops

Obligatory Gearheads > HPP post.

Seriously go to Gearheads though.

I've used Travis in the past. They did the long tube install and the initial dyno tune on the car. Ended up around 430 to the wheels. Car went a best of 11.67 like that.

Travis tuned my 94 back when he was with USA Motorsports and it hasen't skipped a beat yet!

I wasn't impressed at all with their quality of work after my ex wife spent about 10 grand on a motor build with them. Engine looked like whoever worked on it dipped their hands in oil first, cold air kit left just hanging, not even bolted down, 1 week job stretched to a month, leaving the shop the entire gauge cluster lit up with MILs like a Christmas tree, someone elses car battery left in the trunk, engine not properly grounded, ended up having to go elsewhere to get it fixed also. I really don't care what they accomplish on the track if they can't translate it to putting customers cars together right. You're only as good as your lowest customer service experience.

Is that why she left?

Travis is a good guy. I knew him back when he owned THP. I would trust him with my car if I needed work on it.

Maybe you should ask her?

Op, Sounds like you want the world. Cheap, reliable, fast. Pick two.

Shut the fuck up, already. It doesn't sound like that at all.

Y?

I was wondering the same thing

Slide the cock back outta your mouth.

Sounds like he wants a race car that he can drive to work. De tune it, or buy a daily. Or learn to deal with daily driving a race car.

[Trip McNeely]

Be that as it may, it doesn't excuse the shops lack of communication and empty promises.

If you're in Keller call Brooks...he knows his stuff and is a top notch guy.

Dude, I know you're smart enough to understand what level of tuning abilities we have now. His setup should run 10.30 all day long while still having stock feeling driveability.

Hell, Manny's S/C 2011-12 made 784hp and drove like it was factory fresh. He knows how to do it. It wasn't until he was prompted to push the limits and break 1000hp that it let go. That was on a completely bone stock motor.

The man paid for that and didn't get it. Granted, this is all his side of the story, but the technology stands. You already knew this. Your trolling is merely unintelligent babble.

Drives like factory is a blanket statement. You know this. I'm sticking up for hpp while this guy puts them on blast.

Dude. We're not talking about a foxbody with an SCT chip that loses contact after a rev limiter clutch dump on slicks.

It should not hunt for idle. It should not misfire at part throttle.

I will concede that there may be more to the story, but so far I don't feel like he has really bashed anyone.
