Where should i get my parts installed?

in the future i plan on spending around 3k on my evo x mr. thats at least 100whp+ with tuning and everything. im confused on where i should take the car to get the parts added. i cant do it myself, and i really don't know anyone. would it be wise to take it to the mitsu dealership to get the parts added, then get a AP and tune it myself? im a noob at welding, etc etc. how much would the mitsu dealership charge? help plox

If you're worried about your warranty, don't take it to the stealership or they will kiss it good bye. Either way don't let the stealership install aftermarket parts, trust me they will screw it up or something and rape you on the install. Take it to a reputable tuner shop in your area. BTW where are you located at? That would help us point a shop in your area.

There is tons of shops in Cali... don't ever go to the dealer with a modified car, asking to void your warranty.

It'll void your warranty. If you can put the car back to stock then you'll be fine before any warranty services are done.

Here's a list of shops/vendors on evom

Search online for reputable shops that deal with evos, or call around.

If you put as much as an exhaust, according to my dealer, your engine warranty is VOID.
