East Coast Supercharging. Has anyone used them for engine mods?
I am looking to get headers and a cam for my 2002 Z28. I have heard good things about ECS and was wondering if anyone used them or might know of a place to get this work done along with dyno and tuning. Thanks

The only f-bodies I've heard of them touching recently are putting SC kits on 5th gens.

Why not just google how to do it, and do it yourself?

There was about a year period that they were fbody friendly. That is when Matt from TTP went and worked there. Plenty of fbodies there during his tenure at the shop. Once he left that went away quick...

Mike's incident was quite a while before Matt from TTP was there.

they only do LSx. They do not do LT or TPI or SBC. Only LSx. I have heard good things about them. but we have sponsors here including JSP and they have stellar customer reviews by countless members on this board

If you use east coast just ask for tommy. He works on lt1s and ls1s (has a shop called anger management i believe) I went to him when i needed my car tuned and tommy pointed me in the right direction. They work on f bodies cause theres only a dozen in the yard and when i was in the shop last june they had a ta on the lift. Cant hurt to drive down and ask but u can take my advice like a grain of salt.

The shop has no work and they won't work on F bodies...
Great business idea. since they dont want to deal with the 4th gen crowd.
