  Jeff is great.  He dyno tuned my drag car in Feb. 2025 and it ran great on the track.  Then all of the sudden I had issues with the car, that were not caused by Jeff.  I still called him for help and he helped me adjust the tune to try and get the car to go down the track.  He did that while being so sick that he should not have answered the phone, but he did.  Long story short the stator support failed in the transmission and caused all the problems.  I wanted to give a shout out to everyone that if you need tuning etc. call Jeff first.  He is a great and knowledgeable guy.

Thanks Jeff for all your help.

  I've used Jeff (and Tim) for years on my 05' GTO. They've been able to do correctly what several other speed shops/garages/dealers have not.They've solved ECU issues, have rebuilt the engine, CAM, clutch replace, rear end swap and all has been great. Dyno results were better than expected and the car runs well! The experience shows and the quality work is always at a fair price. I trust my vehicle at Carolina Auto Masters so much that I drive (or tow) it the hour plus from the east side of Raleigh when ever its service/upgrades time. Thanks guys for keeping my "muscle car" on the road and running right!

  As always CAM exceeded my expectations.  Anyone with a negative experience with someone as friendly as Jeff doesn't understand how dynos work. You CAN NOT show up needing things or trying to to get by. Show up with a sound engine, new plugs/fuel/etc.. and let him work his major. His shop is like any other, show up prepared and you will leave happy. Try to push double of what your engine left the factory with while not being prepared and you will leave unhappy.
Jeff and his entire crew will always get my business.  The nicest, most friendly and best priced company around by far.
BTW I showed up, made over 75whp more than I was hoping for BECAUSE I WAS PREPARED
