Default Big Announcement!!!! GCP Shop Opening!


I am pleased to announce to all of you that Gulf Coast Performance is now opening shop and will be a full time installation facility! Yes, I have decided to leave my current occupation working for the same law firm for 11.5 years to do something I truly love.

It is an exciting move for me and I have always wondered what an enjoyable occupation may be. So, here I go! I will be situated at an excellent location in the Houston area on the Gulf Freeway and Beltway 8 with appropriately enough, a Gulf Freeway address.

Selling parts without installing them has just been driving me bonkers. So, off to the races!

Can’t open a new shop without any specials right? So let’s see what we can do!

Let’s start off with and STS Turbo kit starting at $7,850.00 installed and tuned for the C5 and $9450.00 for the C6! Fuel system upgrades will be determined on a case by case basis depending on where you are at now with your car. These prices will not last long!!!!
****************************************
Next we have an A&A Supercharger kit starting at $7499.00 installed and tuned for the C5 and the C6! Tax, title, and license folks, this is a complete kit!!!!
****************************************

Gears! Gears! Gears! One of the best bang for your buck mods!!! Opening special is $995 installed for installation of gears in your differential or a core differential!!!! This price also includes installation into the vehicle. If you want to send in a core for gears, we can work that out too.

Wanna Stage V DTE instead of working with your own? Lemme know! Whether you want a Stage 1 or a Stage V differential from DTE, GCP is a dealer for DynoTech Engineering and will take care of you.

One of the best mods for me (and one of the first) was to put 4.10 gears in my M6. Life just doesn’t get any better, well, until you get a supercharger or turbo(s). Then you want to do something crazy like I’m probably going to do shortly and go with an automatic conversion with a trans brake. When does the madness stop...
****************************************

Already got boost and want a new clutch? How about a Textralia single for $1450.00 installed or twin for $1750.00 installed?

BUT WAIT! THE NEWS ONLY GETS BETTER!!!!!!


Gulf Coast Performance is also working closely with EnglandGreen and is now an authorized Texas installer for all of his awesome packages! So if ya’ll want something he installs, call me!

Wanna EnglandGreen Bunny, Monster, Whiplash, Godzilla, or Insanity cam? Gotcha covered! Wanna installed price? Let’s talk! $2395.00 installed!

These kits are sold with Patriot Gold dual springs & titanium retainers, hardened chromemoly pushrods, timing chain, high flow oil pump, crank bolt and all new gaskets and seals. Pretty much everything you need!

Whatever your desire, GCP is here to help you and will get it done!

The shop is being moved into now but appointments will be taken. The lift is being delivered and installed this week as well as some other things so I am excited and will be ready soon!

Contact info:

Gulf Coast Performance, Inc.
15255 Gulf Freeway, Suite D147
Houston, Texas 77034
832-385-9622
sales@gulfcoastperformance.com

Thanks ya’ll!!!!!!

Jason

P.S. Another quick little announcement, GCP is now a distributor for iForged wheels!!!!

I guess I will be the first to say congratulations and good luck with your new occupation.

You are the second person I know of that is dropping everything and making the move to opening a shop this month. I wish I was at a point where I could do the same.

No, no, I'm just a paralegal. I do everything but sign my own name. Sign others, yes, but not mine. I've been wanting to get out of law ever since I decided not to go to law school with my best friend. Ironically, he is the one who really started my interest in cars.

Stay out of the bar next door or you will go broke! Probably could find some models in there.

Good luck with you new venture.

Did someone say cold ones? Only after hours...

I'll put up some pics this weekend. I've tore out some of the brand new stuff that the builder put in so it's kinda goofy looking right now.
