Question Transmission rebuilt!! which store to pick?

I need Evo IX transmission rebuilt. I have 5 speed.

In my area I know about two shops who offer transmission service for EVO

1. Turbotrix
2. JNZ Tuning

I dont know which one to pick. Any suggestions? And one more thing if you live around Philly Where you service your Evo?

One more question: How different evo 9 transmission from evo 8?
I called Turbotrix and they told me that Evo 9 transmission is completly different from evo8 and they will have to use completely different parts to rebuild it.

Id go with shep or TRE as well. I have a Shep transfer case. I take my car to TT to get performance stuff done but service stuff I try to do everything myself. I take it to Fred Beans for the free oil changes and thats about it.

I got the quote from TurboTrix its $$1500 and JNZ is $$2100 Jnz told me that this the worst case scenario and it could be less than that. So I'm still not sure
