I own an evolution IV, I would like to get her the 100k service tune up. All pumps gaskets and belts. Anyone have a reputable shop or specialist they can recommend? Thanks in advance..

thanks for the replies, i gotten mixed reviews on iveytune, i heard great things from hassle free turn around times to multiple business partners and ex co workers that informed me of shady operations.

+1. IveyTune does great work. I've taken my car there twice, once to have some repairs done and most recently for some performance mods and a tune. They've got great customer service, quick turnaround times, and good mechanics. It's not some fly-by-night shop.

Been in EVOland some time now there is not 1 single performance shop in anywhere in NJ that I would recommend you bring your EVO to.

Where would you go then? Not here to start anything but I am new to the evo world and would definitely appreciate recommended shops to check out for tuning and installing parts.

Ivey's been around a long time. Worth giving him or Akuma a shot. If those two don't work out you can always head out to longisland there's plenty of shops out here as well.

Like I always say give them something simple to do first and just see how they threat you and go from there. No one says you have to spend thousands off the rip to get good service.
