The tune greatly improved the engine and transmission performance, and I drive the car with a big smile on my face due the improvement from ECS's tune. I cannot recommend ECS more highly.
Since I am spending a good amount of money with them for my tvs build (should hopefully be completed within the next couple of weeks), its great to hear that ECS took good care of you

The main reason why I made this thread is because I was on the fence for about two years with regards to supercharging my vette with ECS. After talking to many helpful forum members and the ECS crew, I decided it was time to pull the trigger.
I want to provide unbiased info to help anyone else who was like me and is also thinking about using this shop for their future corvette performance mods.
If anyone has any questions, feel free to pm me anytime!
I will continue to update this thread with any new developments.
So far my experience with ECS has been great!! I will certainly post up if anything changes..

My friend has an ECS kit and it has been awesome. I'm buying either an A&A or ECS kit here in the next few weeks. Thread likes this make it hard to decide.

Matt and Chris have come to the rescue and had the shipping expedited so that the kit will be in the shop this Friday!! I am dropping my car off tomorrow so that they can begin installation of the stage 1 fuel system and gauges! A big thanks to ECS, especially Matt and Chris for great customer service so far!!

I plan to keep this thread updated throughout the entire install process and do a final review of the finished product! Stay tuned!

I may just see you there at Carlise. I too am in the process of installing a ECS Paxton Novi2000 kit on my car. Trying to get everything good to go by the 25th so I can head out there. At this point I am waiting for the supercharger to get back from a rebuild at the Paxton Warehouse. Everything else is good to go.
I know how anxious you feel cause Im in the same boat.

We do what we have to do to get the job done ! We had a goal to deliver the car before we go to Carlisle. Yes it's unfortunate we were told a date of 8/11 shipping & it just left on 8/16.. So we picked up the expedited 3 day air shipping so that we will have the kit here Friday which is plenty of time to deliver before Carlisle!

You can't ask for better customer service than that!!!
I am extremely happy with ECS right now!
Matt, you have been extremely helpful!! I look forward to seeing you and the entire ECS crew today when I drop off my car

Another UPDATE: I finally dropped off my car yesterday afternoon!! They had so many corvettes in their lot that they were working on! I was greeted by Matt, the shop manager, Tommy, my installer, and Chris the shop owner. Great group of guys

I should be getting my car back either Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. Matt will let me know more details tomorrow...
I am extremely excited and cant wait to floor the car for the first time and feel the added power!! Getting sleep will be tough for the next few days!!

No better crew to get the job done well. Watch that Tommy guy - innocent looking, incredible with a wrench, but there is just something sketchy about him....I JEST! I trust Tommy and the rest of the crew to take out my 1000+ rwhp car without me to confirm mods and adjustments are just right. This comes with me saying, romp on it to make sure it holds... Good people, great service, incredible products.

Hawthorne isn't too far from me - PM when you get your car and we'll meet up for some fun.

Congrats on your car

John

Another update: On Friday morning, I received an email from Matt the shop manager letting me know that the tvs2300 kit came in!!
Later on in the afternoon he sent me another email saying that the maggie is bolted on the car!!!
Matt said that he would email me some pics of the install. As soon as I get them I will post them up!
Hopefully we can dyno the car this Tuesday or Wednesday!
I am looking to pick up the finished car this coming Wednesday!!

Here are a few pics of ECS's lot when I went to go drop my car off! You would think that there was a car show going on!

I know those surroundings. You're going to want to never stop driving the car when you get it back, possibly sleep in it too LOL!

Have you ever driven a Maggie blown car? If not, you're in for a real treat. It will feel like you gained about 300 cubic inches

Subbing for the results--good luck with the build. What is the overall goal?
