k, not to be a dick, but what happened? and why did it take them so long to fix it? why did you take it to a shop that wasnt capable of doing good work? wouldnt it have been better idea to learn to wrench, and do it yourself? its cheaper, more entertaining, and it will make you a more rounded person. i make my girl turn wrenches all the time. she wants to have stuff done to her car, so i maker her get her butt out in the garage and do it with me. i save TONS of money doing it all myself. that and if you know where to get parts, you can have a heck of a car for very little money

well the shop told me they were capable of doing it and it was the only shop around. Worst mistake ever. If the car ever goes anywhere else it will be to ams. When they got the car it had 311 at the wheels. After all the mods they went to go dyno it and made 256 at the wheels. And said they didnt know why it didnt make more hp. So thats why i took it to the original place i had work done for them to fix what another shop screwed up.

i apologise if you feel that im whoring your thread, im just learning. why did you take it to a shop and only trust them at their word, not by the work they do? did anyone recomend the shop? was this their first evo? what did they install that screwed everything up so bad. i mean, they threw mods on the car and it was slower than stock!

Let me also give you another peice of advise. If you do not know what a torque wrench is then you have no business doing mods to any car. Furthermore since you dont knwo how to do mods you yourself should never get mods done to yuor cars until you learn about them and what they are and how cars work etc etc.

ummm...well yeah. you always need to see the workmanship of a shop before blowing money there. this is coming from a guy who has lots of experience in autoshops. always see what they are capable of doing before blowing money. i ALWAYS do all of my own work, and the things i cant (alignments and the like) are done through my own shop (or at the bare minimum, a shop that you can trust!!!)

Look, your thread is not your thread. You didnt pay for it. Secondly, you already got your advise so just move on and learn about cars first. Thirdly, you need to adjust your attitude a little because you need to grow up and learn about the real world first. Fourth, you need to understand the value of a dollar. Fif, you need to graduate. Sixth, make sure no one spikes the punch at prom. Seventh, worry about laerning about your car then worry about sponsors.

Dude your the one that needs to grow up, ive been mature the whole time and youve been an immature ***** the whole time posting. I havnt said one word to you, you just keep posting stuff to me when i told you to leave me alone. So in others word youve been harrassing me which you could get kicked off this site for. So i suggest leaving me alone if you would like to be on this site because it surely says something about harrassment on the rules. Thank you and have a good day. If your smart dont post back to me thanks.
