Check ImportsNC.com, go to the forum and scroll to the venders section, I am sure there will be some reviews in there. It is a good website aslong as you keep out of the Fayetteville bullshit section.

heres what you do, shop around and find the lowest price, then go to www.nationalspeedinc.com and go to their store, if its not listed, CALL them. They will kill the lowest price you find.

2006 LS 2.2L61 lowered, yellow, red/black rims. Was on my way to a nice little turbo build but I may be picking up a Opel GT and I am gonna be throwing my spare 2.2 in it with the trans out of the sky redline. The Opel GT has no interior, no engine or trans, it is basically a shell with suspension and a rear axle.

BTW, I will also Vouch for NSI, My favorite shop still in existance. Met the whole crew when Fayetteville went to Wilmington. I gotta keep some respect for Epic too.

hey guys real fast what do you guys think of this deal? I'm looking to trade my 07 lt auto, for one of these, both are at the same dealer where I got my LT from, but I'm looking to UPgrade, I know the ss/tc is faster but it is a few more bucks, and I'm also putting $2,000 over from my trade, so which do you think I should go with? I'm thinking the red ss/sc?

that would be sick with cams. some new rods. valve springs. damn that would be amazing. if there are ones with around 300 wheel horse power with bolt ons and a tune, imagine engine work.
