All our most popular DTE Differential Strut
Kits are in stock and ready for shipment for the C6/C6 applications
and most of our stocking dealers and/or tuners should have these in
their inventory also. If your favorite dealer/tuner does not have
them on-hand when you call, all they need to do is simply place an
order with us to replenish their stock, so you can purchase from
them or from us directly- the current price will be the same.
Our new website is nearing completion and
will be published very soon! We're very excited about this, as we
have quite a number of performance packages and additional driveline
products to display that we haven't yet to date, so you'll be able
to see the *NEW* DTE Powertrain very soon!!! We've been blessed with
being extremely busy with work this year so far and 2008 is shaping
up to be the very best year for DTE Powertrain to date, through hard
work, long hours and dedication to Chevrolet Corvette! Thank you for
your business, we appreciate it!

As of 2008, DTE Powertrain will no
longer be offering any forced induction performance packages any
longer. This decision wasn't made because we can't make power with
them, nor that we don't have the capability to so- because we have
done just that in many cars over the years. However, it's simply
because we have had **Soooooooooooo** many negative issues with
these F/I kit manufacturers and their products over the years with
regards to questionable product quality, poor kit engineering,
missing parts, improperly machined parts, the wrong parts, extremely
poor dealer service from them and it some cases, poor long-term
durability from their "kits' in general. It has gotten bad enough in
the last year or so that we wouldn't install one of these kits on
our own car if we had got one for free, let alone install on a
paying customer's car!
As engineers here ourselves, we
scrutinize the aftermarket components we install on our customers
car very closely before we install them to verify they are up to our
very high quality standards. If the parts are not up to those
standards in both fit and function, they get sent right back to the
manufacturer.....period!
To us, package build quality and
our positive reputation means more to us in the long run than making
a quick buck off of someone just because the kit is "there" to be
installed. Therefore, we've dropped all of those troublesome
manufacturers altogether that refuse to produce a high quality kit
that isn't laden with inherent design flaws that cause long-term
durability issues..
In our professional opinion, if you are
going to purchase a F/I kit from someone to install yourself, place
the kit order with a Corvette tuner that has perfected their own F/I
Kit design, because they have undoubtedly had to deal with these
negative issues before we've stated above- which has ultimately led
them to design their on kit that actually works for the long term.
East Coast Supercharging and A&A Corvette are probably the most
notable in this area.
The reasons stated above are
why we now have totally focused on the N-A aspect of performance
packages here, because in doing this, we have 100% *TOTAL CONTROL*
over the complete upgrade process from beginning to the end, in not
only the labor portion, but also in the engines we build here
in-house. We know for 100% certain that every engine we build here
is spot-on perfect in every way, because I build them here our self
and we can guarantee 100% that the completed Corvette will *always*
perform exactly as we designed it.
The stroker and N/A
engines/packages we offer of cam/H-C upgrades, 383, 403, 415, 427
and 454 for the C5/C6 Corvette provide no worries, no compromises,
better durability, better vehicle re-sale value, easier to maintain,
simpler in design, etc. - which is not only better for our
customers, but better for us overall, giving the customer a win-win
choice!
Our new website will outline these packages
in specific detail very soon for your review.

We've received our entire *huge* 3-pallet
order back from powder-coat and we'll begin shipping next week to fill our
backorders, as well as new orders taken. We've produced the largest
production run we've ever done to date to keep up with demand,
especially going into the busy Spring Season, so we'll never run out
of product again. All of our product distributors, dealers,
warehouses, tuners, etc. in our dealer network should these kits
on-hand within a couple of days if they placed their own
stocking orders. Thank you for your patience and business!

installation, more compact to fit into even tighter chassis

1/19/08 DTE Undergoing Major
Website Overhaul!
Please bear with us as we
completely re-build our new website to fully reflect the changes
here at DTE Powertrain, as we'll be taking on a whole new, high-tech
look where our site will be easier to traverse and contain more
information to serve you better! Be sure to check back as the new
website unfolds during the next 30-45 days. Thank you!
1/20/08 Dynotech Engineering Inc. Is Changing & Expanding!
As of 2008,
we’ll undergo a corporate name change from our current name everyone
is familiar with, to DTE Powertrain- as we focus our operational
efforts towards the future by taking our growing company to the next
professional level of vehicle performance, product engineering and
industry presence! We feel this new name more accurately reflects
where we are today in the high performance Corvette industry and now
fully encompasses where we’re heading in the future.
DTE’s 10,000 sq./ft. facility sets on
approx. 2.4 acres of commercial property in Fort Wayne, with only a
small portion of that used currently. In the future, we’ll be
increasing our facility “footprint” size on that property to
accommodate the expansion. Also in the coming weeks/months, we’ve
scheduled the delivery of new, high-tech equipment, machinery and
updated CAD/CAE/CAM development software that will enable us to
further develop, engineer and manufacture our already extensive
heavy duty IRS product lines and do it with greater accuracy / speed
than ever before! Add to that our extensive Corvette Performance
Package development we’ve been successfully building upon for the
last 6 years now and it’s easy to see that good times are in store
for the Corvette enthusiast from DTE Powertrain!
