Yeah, there's a reason why I try to do everything myself: I'll do it right away AND I'll try to do the best job I can (in the allotted time). I had alot of frustrating experiences with trying to get work done on my car. I've had some places do pretty good work for me, but I ALWAYS find little things that I'm unhappy with.[/quote]

Like the paint job on that hood and headlight covers? lol

Maybe in "the big city" you guys have them, but the idea of a performance shop here in Iowa is a Napa with Flowmasters behind the counter. Actually, there's a race shop in my town, but they close before I get out of work...damn my luck!!!

Yeah, we have alot of performance shops out here...you hick.

I've got a rice shop that is about a 5 min. walk from my apartment, More Power Racing (MPR). They are a great company too. They used to run full page ads in SCC magazine. I bought my BOV there because they were cheaper than any online company, and they had it in stock. They quoted me $2160 for the HKS turbo kit, gotta love that.

I'm making my own "kit" again, but it's not going to be for everyone.
