Just picked it up and the car runs good. Not a bad idle at all and I can't wait to get it tuned. Alex did a great job and he did it quick. I definetly recommend dog box.

I have never heard anything but good things about thier work and reputation. Being a local I would highly consider them for my tranny rebuild when the time comes

These are the only guys who I let touch my Evo. I do all my own work but I leave the tranny work to the experts. They are the best.

guys that do it because the love it and aren't trying to make a killing...with no haters

a company that has tons of customers and tries to first stuff in...with some haters

I vote Dog Box...two of my buddies have their cars there and only have good things to say about them

I now have experiene with dog box and Turbo Trix and honeslty I thought tt had very poor customer service I will be taking my car to dog box from now on. If dog box had a dyno I wouldn't even have gone back to tt for the second tune. I'm not saying the tt doesn't do good work, they are just not for me. One thing I will say though is that i chatted with paul while he tuned my car and is a cool guy and knows his stuff, he is the only one that impressed me over there.
