What drivers say

First class all the way! I wouldn’t trust just anyone with my new C8 Z06 Corvette, but Outlaw Performance Engineering is great and very trustworthy!

Billy P.C8 Z06 Corvette · Google review

Great tuner, definitely knows what he’s doing. Got my C7 Z06 running its best. Other shops couldn’t figure out the problem, but this shop did.

Jay C.C7 Z06 Corvette · Google review

Truly the best of the best in the Grand Strand area and well beyond. Townsend specializes in performance vehicles, and his attention to detail is on a level you rarely find anymore.
