well i bought my evo x about 8 months ago. after 5 months of it being stock i decided it was time to mod it. so i asked my friend at work who is really into cars if the new of any shops where i could order and get the parts installed. after a week of researching what i wanted i decided to go to his shop. the first two mods were installed quick and with quality. they were installed in the time he had told me they would be intalled in. after a month of those two mods i wanted more power. i decided to go back to his shop for my other mods. long story short i dropped it off about six weeks ago for some mods and till this day i have nothing WTF!!! he had told me that it would take no longer than three week. I have been to his shop and called his shop and he tells me that his is still waiting on parts. really?!? are there that many people moding their cars that parts are out of stock? now i need some help finding a shop around san antonio where i can get work done on my car. i wouldnt mind driving to a shop in another city if the work would be done fast and with quality. or am i asking to much from this guys?

 

I think they're pulling your leg man.... Get your ride back from them and go to these guys... http://www.noribilt.com/ They are in San Antonio and they did all the work to my Evo VIII. Give them a call and see what they can do for you..

 

yup..go with noribilt.

 

what are you getting installed? make a few friends in the area and do it yourself

i am getting a bigger turbo, new injectors, boost controller and a tune done. as far as doing it myself i really wish i could but unfortunately i can't since i work nights and have no time during the day. where could i meet some friends that know about working on evos or cars period? Im off on Wednesday and Saturday do you guys meet on any of those days? also thanks for the link i will give them a call for further mods. now im off to raise some hell over my car!!

 

You meet new friends right here!! take some time to get to know fellow enthusiasts and you will see most people are willing to lend a helping hand.

 

Evo X + boost controller = waste of money.

The stock ECU is a much better boost controller than anything you can put on there.

You need to find a new shop that doesn't suck.

 

well your lucky enough to be in a are where there are alot of evo people.... i live in waco, and ive seen a total of 3 evos here, and they are usually passing through... lol. but what your doing isnt very hard to install so get after it! lol

 

well its not that the shop sucks but more why it taking them so long? he has good rep and even had some articles published about his car(s). and as to the boost controller i wont be managing it through a laptop since i don't have one atm that is why the boost controller. should a laptop be on my list of things to get? on a scale from 1-10(one being newbie work and 10 being a pro)how hard is it to adjust all your setting on the ECU? or should i stay away from the ECU until i have informed myself with all the knowledge there is to be had from this site?
