lol, yea, i'm going down there today to talk to them. I'm what you could say. A little heated.. I was going to put EVERYTHING on myself, but this guy that i knew said that he knew this place that would give me great deals and so i said..well i'm moving, have no tools anymore, no jacks,jackstands, air tools whatnot, so i'll save myself some time and have them do it. Well.. Yea.. You see how it turned out.


The shop is an evo specialist and they have worked on my friends evo before and did a great job. Idk. I'm going to raise a little hell when i get down there. I'll let you know how it goes.

did they tell you or suggested those modifications that you listed? I'm not sure if you will get significant, reliable and safe results after everything is done, a lot of things are missing in the sequence and those list of mods doesn't really support each other.

good luck, hope you researched more before you sent your Evo to those fools.



I have the other supporting mods that go along with that. So dont worry about that. The other mods that are on my car i put on myself such as head studs, exhaust, intake, ic piping, ect.. Dont worry, I treat her good

That is way over priced. Do not pay it unless you cannot get your car from them. Tell them to reverse it back to the way it was and even if they won't, get a tow truck (flat bed) to come get it and take it somewhere else. Don't pay anything and don't offer to pay anything. If you have to pay, pay with a credit card and immediately call them and deny the charges. Get numerous quotes faxed from around the country from reputable shops and also submit that to your credit card company. The credit card company should hold/reverse payment after investigating. Report them to the local police showing numerous comparable quotes and try to get a fraud charge going. If you don't get your money back from the credit card, take them to small claims court. Lastly, have multiple witnesses with you when you do talk to them/tape record them via phone/use a video camera and try to get them to write everything down and get any and all receipts making sure they are itemized.
