Talking New SS/SC in the ST. Louis Area.

Hey Guys,

Been a cobalt owner sense I got my 2.2 LT back in spring of 07. Just recently got a 06 SS/SC.

Been a long time reader on this site, Alot of smart people on here.

Anyways, was just posting to say I am new around here, and ask if anyone knew a reliable shop for dynoing and performance mods?

Thanks,

LSJ-SS-06

Washington/Union/Pacific Area, about 20 miles outside the city.

Not much in the form of shops out this way, and I am pretty new to the "Tuner" scene. (Been hardcore v-8 RWD my whole life, wanted to try something new.)

It is a little ways past Fenton on I-44.

Small town, alot of red necks. kinda funny because my car sticks out like a sore thumb next to the overload of mid-90's beat up dodge 1-tons.

I am up in the West County and South County areas alot tho.
