I would go to DTM for absolutely everything you can not do youself. Nick and those guys up there have been working on Evo's for a very long time, and are perfectionests! A little trip is worth the "peace of mind!"

What do you guys reccommend as far as good shops around here..The only place I know Is AMS in MD near my hometown. Thanks.

Were you on 64E this morning (Monday) about 10ish?

Thats a shame...good thing you guys ruled out AMS as an option. Theres another tuner up there "Altered Atmosphere" typically deal on the 350z side but do have an AWD dyno, never heard there name around here...could be a good or bad thing.

I got a HKS SSQV weld on flange from the guy at altered atmosphere and he was a really cool guy. He helped me find an aluminum one to match my pipes and he sent it to me for free. It would have only been a couple bucks more for shipping but he i thought it was pretty cool of him. And it arrived at my house like the day after. I havent heard anything about them tuning wise though.

All i hear down this way is CBRD and DTM. DTM is closer. But have heard great things about both. I go to NY to get my car tuned and all that since my family wants me to visit anyways.
