I used TTW once back when it was called PTP, but that was over 3 years ago. Their inability to balance tires after two tries really turned me off. I've had no issues with Cobb's or EvoD's balancer.

I'm somewhat new to the Evo community but its been an interesting venture so far. I am the owner at White Wing Weaponry the gun shop just east of Denton on hwy 380. If anyone is needing ceramic coating or thermal dissipation coatings we offer these in house. I've seen quite a few evo's up here so we might be able to save you some driving.

Always have my 2011 ww X MR worked there. Kevin helped to intall the parts. Richard tuned both ECU and SST. I've tracked my car for over 2 yrs, since they do race settings/tunings, they also provided me some decent advises. Last year, they even rebuild my 4B11T since it's damaged in a hot lap on track. The work was taken a bit longer than i expected, but overall as a quality job. I personally recommend them =)

Great to hear!! Car is running a bit funny and I am not sure exactly as to what the problem may be, so hopefully Kevin or Richard can help me diagnose and get my baby back up and running. I will call them come Tuesday. Not too sure if they will be open on Monday, but I might try. Appreciate the quick response and the recommendation!

I really hope they can remove Trade Secrets on the list. You know my car is there for a very long time.

How long has it been there?

I had to get some work done after the spring storms, and when I went to see them, they were so backed up, they said it would be *several months* before they could even schedule me.

I checked a few other places, and it was the same story, basically a 5-6 mo backlog.

Not saying they're not at fault, just that this has been a very busy year for body shops.

This is not due to backlog.

Sept 28 when I send my car for the 2nd time due to missing parts.

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/no...d-evo-x-2.html

Until now it is not done. I'm good to them, I don't yell and I don't curse. But I choose TSecrets due to recommendation on this thread inspite that I have another 2 good shops 5 minutes from my house.

This is about the work done in the right way. Why parts are missing, do you even have check list?

Try this. Cars there is mostly Lambo and Ferrari. It's a low volume shops. This one 5 minutes from my house. Good google review.

Ah well in that case I guess I'm glad I never followed up to get work done with them. Sorry to hear about the mess you're dealing with, hope they can make things right for you.

As a service industry, it seems that body shops are subject to the same mixed performance issues. One day everyone loves them, the next, they stumble, no one has 100% rating.

In fairness to my Service advisor, he's nice and not an *** and very apologetic. It's his tech who are dumb enough not to know my radiator cover and hood heat shield is missing. They are huge.








This whole thing is missing.



Is that so obvious?
