NorCal Tuning Shops

> Just doing some searching for the moment. I'm about to head off to Iraq, but plan on continuing with my 7 as soon as I get back. The only question I have is, anyone know of any good, reliable tuning shops in NorCal? I know they got plenty in SoCal, but I live in Sacramento and don't really want to haul my car down south. Unless I end up In Camp Pendleton, or 29 Palms.

> So, anyone out there know of any?

> Thanks.

But IMHO Karack/Rotary Evolution in Yuba City is the place to take your car if you want great work and very reasonable prices.

Good luck in Iraq bro. Keep your head down and we'll all be looking forward to meeting you when you get home in a few months.

> Thanks man. I'll make sure to log in on my Off times to this site, and post some pics and of the progress of my car back home as well as pics from over there.

>Yeah, I've been referred to Ben up in Yuba plenty of times by the RX7 guys I know in Sac. I'm gonna go and check it out after Iraq since one of the Marines going with me is from Yuba City.

I agree, Karack/Rotary Evolution is the place to take it. I would recommend it as well for what its worth.
