Finally got my car tuned

After owning my car for a year and a half and keeping it stock until a month ago, I finally took it to ER yesterday to get my cams installed and tuned.

There is not anything I can say that hasn't already been said about English Racing, so I'll keep it brief. I can't remember a time when I went to a store/shop (of any kind) and was taken care of so well. They have possibly the best customer service I have ever seen, and I have worked in customer service roles for several companies so that is saying something. It was a 3 hour drive to get there but it was totally worth it. They will definitely be seeing more of me in the future when I'm ready for more mods for my car.

I don't have a digital copy of my graph, but I made 320whp/318wtq at 25lbs of boost with basic bolt-ons and S1 cams. I am very happy with my car and the work that was done to it.


Thank you English Racing!

-Jordan

Jordan,

Thanks for coming down and putting up with our waiting room. It is always nice to be able to hang out with car guys and though I didnt get a chance till we got down to the dyno (since yesterday was my turn to man the station) we got to hang and make some power.
