Well its hard to say which one is the best for me I mean like if your talking money wise Devo wins there.. But when it come down to trust well I don't really trust anyone because you get your good and bad storys from every shop and I don't want to just through my money away.. So I have one more place I'm looking into and that is Buschur Racing so we will see what they say.

There are many reasons a professional shop doesn't let people hang out inside the shop while work is being done. Safety, insurance (something you should make SURE the shop working on your car has), confidentiality, quality, and so on.

Anyone who has their car worked on at our shop is more than welcome to come back and check out the work being done. The guys up front don't even give us notice, because they know and I know that there is never anything to hide while cars are in our posession. I should know, I am the first technition you see when you walk thru the back door to the shop. This is my career and way of life, and I take the upmost pride in what I do.

You can make it work by getting $4k more dollars. If they have done all your work so far, why stop now? You have obviously let them do the work because you prefer their services over the others. If not, you would've been taking your car to Devo already.

I mean this with all due respect too, you come on here swinging your ***** saying you have $25k to spend, why would another $4k matter, and why would you want to cut corners over $4k?

Good luck with what ever you do. Seeing that your'e already an AMS customer, answers your own question.

05 White Evo, Can you please tell me the Estimate number I sent you? I would like to look at it and post to everyone here all the items that are on that estimate. If you had a problem with it why didnt you just ask me. I would be more then happy to see where we can take things out.

Im fairly certain the estimate I gave you was a stock to 37R with a 2.3 Built longblock and ALL the supporting mods. It was a turnkey 650+ whp car with all parts and labor. I even think I Had a big brake upgrade on it.

In any event hit me up on email and we can see what parts you dont need or can live without.

Eric
