My car is over there right now getting a reman among other things put in. I've been hanging around the shop lately since my car's been there and I've have yet to see a customer come in and complain about anything regarding their work.

I wouldn't hesitate to bring my car over there.

Hope this helps,
Jason

Awesome! This is just what I was looking for. I'll be moving to San Diego in August, thank God. I've been living in Norfolk, VA for almost 4 1/2 years.

Yeah, same guys. My car will be done by this weekend, and I'll be back in about a month or so after the motor is broken in to get it tuned. Just bring your car over...they're one of the best in the business.

I didn't think you can install a clutch backward?
For just a dyno, I wouldn't sweat over it.
Just keep your eye on the AFR. If you redline your car driving now, what difference is it to have it on a dyno? But tuning is a whole differnt beast.

They are nice guys, but their work is really second rate... I DEFINATELY wouldn't trust them with a rebuild or port job. JMO. Their four rotor project was an abortion due to their shoddy work, from what I hear.
