About ExaTorq Tuning and Performance

ExaTorq Tuning and Performance (formerly Westers Custom Tuning) has provided GM custom performance tuning services to hundreds of customers throughout the world. Established in 2004, ExaTorq was our response to the many local shops who simply don't want to give us the time of day unless we drove in with a 500+HP monster. We cater to individuals who seek performance but do no necessarily eat, sleep, and drain the checking account on performance. Your stock vehicle is as welcome on our dyno as one that's been heavily modified, and we will spend just as much time with you. We like to think of ExaTorq as performance for the common man. Whether you order a tune online with us, or stop by the shop for your tune, or just call with questions, we will always make the time to work with you.

You might notice that our shop hours are "by appointment only." This is because, like many of you, we have families that depend upon our ability to provide a steady income, health insurance, and retirement. As much as we would enjoy operating ExaTorq as a full-time endeavor, the current anti-small-business climate simply doesn't make that possible at the moment. So, like many tuners, we choose to do the things we enjoy and are good at on a part-time basis (in this case, automotive technology) while holding down full-time employment in other fields. One of the advantages of owning a part-time business is that we can offer evening and weekend hours.
