You're not going to find anyone worth their salt around here.

Maybe TurboXS if you go with the UTEC system.

Personally (and what I'm going to do) is get my mods dialed in and either a) wait for Al - DynoFlash to come down or b) drive up to TurboTrix.

Join DCevoclub.com and look at the next DC area trip for Al from DynoFlash.

Good luck

Those shops you mentioned aren't really geared towards tuning your car.

But, if you're looking for parts and some exellent servicing of your Evo then by all means check them out.

i can personally vouch for TurboXS. I had Nathan and Phil tune my WRX (RIP) on two different occasions. They did an excellent job and are well respected in the Subaru community. As somebody else mentioned, Al seems to come around the area pretty often and can help you out as well.

I would drive to TurboTrix 45 times up and back before I would let Al even look at my car. I've had his flash in my car as well as a few friends of mine....worst mod we ever did.

Not to mention his business and phone ethics are the absolute pits.

I would say try either TurboTrix or wait for Al to come back down.

I can't speak about that.

I've heard good stories and some bad. I've also heard some bad stuff from someone I trust so there may be some truth to it.

I was planning on getting my car custom tuned when Al came to the area next, but I'll be in vegas.

I'm planning on making a trip up to TurboTrix as soon as I get some cams put in.

If you want to go fast, go with Dynoflash. He will be around the first week in June.

If you want work done to your car go to ISP Racing.

Al will be down at our shop on June 3 and 4. We are in Northern Virginia. 45763 Elmwood Ct. Unit 140 Sterling, VA 20166 so you can map quest it. his trips to us are always a good time plus a lot of the local club members usually show up so it's a good chance to meet the other guys.
