1. Because they focus on the Z/G platform
2. Mark tunes numerous rides w/ the utec daily and has worked with the utec for a long time
3. Plus they get my money so I have to find some way to justify the many miles driven to see them Look at it this way, it makes for a fun roadtrip home with the newly found power

so yes, it is worth it

HPP melted my rear bumper, fucked up my $2500+ fully titanium exhaust in 2 places, broke my test pipes, and messed up my flex pipes on my y-pipe. They didn't pay a single penny to have any of that shit fixed.

If you value any part of your car, take it somewhere else.

BTW, even if they don't fuck you over with their shitty service, they still suck *** at tuning VQs.

not to mention them not crossing the straps on the dyno... from what i remember, that's not the proper way to strap to a dyno.

but i have never had a problem with them...

car didn't fly off the dyno so it's all good... if it did and they refused to pay for the damages we would have some serious BEEF like the 3-5-0...
