    SRZ racing and Mainstream Performance. Have also done business w/ Batlground. I would highly reccomend any of these three to do anything I needed done, excellent people to work with that stand by what they do and are honest and up front.

    i personally use Batlground, Mahdavi, Eurotech, Evolution Autodesign, & Sprayglo

    Batlground: probably one of the hottest new shops putting some of the fastest ride out, i do all of my dyno time there, & tracy has a nice arse

    Mahdavi: this is the 3rd car i've working on there, & the Mahdavi brothers have always kick ass, very down to earth, and can get you what you need to go fast. Very first shop i ever went to and will continue to support them.

    Eurotech: the guys at EPG are the best around for vw/audi if you got one and need work done take it to the pros

    Evolution AD: very cool guys and they have tons of cool products from custom dash kits to floor mats to stickers, they do all of IA's stickers/banners/promo material, they are the bomb!!!

    Sprayglo: they do all of my paint/body work, they do good work for cheap, you can't argue w/ that.

    we have tons of great shops we work w/ here on IA there isn't a shop i wouldn't recommend.

    I always use Main Stream Performance. For some reason I feel like I am thier favorite customer. It's like all the money I give them just comes right back to me at the end of the week. LOL. Later.

    I do all of my own work unless it gets to something I can't but I will/would support :


    Batlground: I know tracey and trust her with what would need to be done. And she does have a nice arse.

    Autodreams: I have known the manager for several years and trust him.

    Mainstreet Performance/SRZ Racing: I have met mike a couple of times and through friends and on here I know he knows his sh*t about honda motors so I would trust him.

    Proud to say with the exception of getting my AC fixed, and my car painted I've done everything myself. I have a hard time trusting people. People treat other cars different than they would their own. When I had my first car at 16 and took it to a shop or dealer I swear either something was scratched, fucked up, or wasn't fixed everytime. From then on I decided I would just learn to do it myself.
    Now, if I just had an AC machine, paintbooth, and alignment rack I wouldn't need anyone.

    If I had a crazy turbo setup I would need someone to tune it, but I don't plan on doing that.

    I do most of the things myself, but I'll leave all the hard stuff up to Batlground. When my 240 gets to where I need it, they'll be the ones tuning it and doing all the hardstuff.

    The sig says it all. But it wasn't offered as an option, even though Turbodave is a sponsor.
