DSG no question about it. The guys that work there are really cool and friendly. Alex one of the owners of DSG is registered on this forum. They'll probably be the only ones that touch my Evo.

What kind of issues are you having? There's also KTR in the near-area...

But really, in the end, you are the only person you can trust!


I suggest you join our meet tonite so that we can discuss this further...details in Dex's post.

There is no other shop in New England with the depth of experience that we have with Evos, despite the few bad supposed experiences that people may have had with us. We have 500 customers in our database and we don't do mailorder so not everyone is going to have a perfect experience every time because no one is perfect. I can't encourage you to call us because we're not vendors on here but I can encourage you to find things out on your own.

I can tell you that there is no other shop in the area (aside from XX) that actively prepares and races Evos in New England. We have campagned an Evo in Rally America, X GAMES, Hillclimb, GT Live, Redline Time Attack and other local time trial events. We also sponsor and prepare an SCCA T2 Evolution 9 that's driven and owned by Tsurara here on the forum.

DSG For sure. Do not go to KTR, They have been undergoing many changes, Many of the good people who worked there are now gone.

As to a 100% customer satisfaction rate...I don't have one, and I work my a$$ off, Nobody's perfect, All customer's are'nt perfect either. Call them up and talk to Alex, then make a EDUCATED decision.

DSG has worked on my car for years, They are extremely proficient, easy to work with and above all else honest. Happy to call the guys over there friends.

Jason

Ahh yes! I was wondering what happened to you and the car!
