SF bay area - Shop recommendations?
Hi all,
I just got my 2022 ZLE and I would love to get a few things done to it. 1) Corsa Active Valve axle back exhaust 2) ECU changes to get rid of startup roar, as-well-as the pops and bangs in track mode.. Any recommended shops to work with in the south bay area? Thanks! Last edited by zapp; 10-18-2022 at 09:26 PM. |

That said, you’d have to call Rich Wilhoff the Abel manager and see if this is the right job for them. I assume they wouldn’t touch the ECU. Another shop that used to be big in the area is Synergy, but I haven’t used them in 14 years or so. So I’m not sure if they are a go-to shop these days. I know they build some pretty wild LS powered cars. |

This is Synergy’s website, but I’d start by talking to Rich at Abel:

You don't need to smog it until it's five years old, but keep in mind that in CA they now check the ECU for the original checksum.

I know some guys in the Vette world talk about having two ECUs. One for SMOG, and one for the rest of the time. That could be an option.
