I sent 50% down payment and contract on 9/16. shipped my car 11/2 because they were waiting on supercharger. Was told car would be ready on 12/2 and cancaled ,then again on 12/7. they informed me on 12/4 at 3:30pm it would not be ready. I flew up anyway to check on my car. It was 75% or so complete. Hoping to get it by the end of the year. I went with Lingenfelter because of reputation and History of working on Vettes and GM. I will let you know how it works out. Any feed back here....

I went through a similar process and it did take much longer than expected, but not because of any installation problems. You tend to forget that agony after you get to drive it around. They do a fantastic job and their reliability record is superb. While I think they could manage expectations a bit better, the wait seems to be worth it.

My dyno numbers were 5 less than yours on both HP and Torque.

Great, thanks for the help and insight. I will say everyone has been really nice and informative. Kevin took me for a tour of the Facility when I was down and it is a awesome shop. Cant wait.......

I got my vette back Sunday night. Had a couple nice days to sport around and the car is a complete beast. Runs like a bat out of hell. and the really nice thing is that unless I am down on it it drives the same as the day it left my house stock . Getting lots of compliments. I will post some pics later.
