Or do some research on the shop you take it to. Not every shop is like them, but that is a very small percentage...........

Im just trying to get it to the level of performance filling this thread before i start racing it.
I guessing that's a reference to my shared_user title? Well my appologies for deciding to upgrade my power plant... The car ran perfectly fine until I parted it out a month or so ago, so the rebuild is simply by CHOICE...

Good luck on your build, whatever it may be...

This isn't true. I've taken pride in my work for years. Gone way way out of my way to make loyal good customers happy. I know it's the same for other shops as well.

+1. Plenty of good shops out there, but any shop Rob and Dave are associated with is NEVER one of them.

Certain people/shops have EARNED their reputations in this game, simply from the quality of work they do, their customer service, and INTEGRITY. I have been in the game since 99-2000, and from experience over the years, I will vouch for certain people/shops who I have personally done business with over the years, and who have stood the test of time. Collin @ Racing Integration has always been my go to guy for EVERYTHING automotive. Neal Sutton (NS Racing) is a beast when it comes to anything Honda related, transmissions, and wiring/electrical. John and Co. at LHT know their stuff when it comes to building Hondas, and do overall amazing fab work.. And last but certainly not least, Alpha is a GREAT tuner, and knows a LOT about the principals of EFI tuning, as well as a plethora of other automotive knowledge... ALL of those I mentioned have been in the game at LEAST as long as I have, and show no signs of going anywhere anytime soon...

Understood. I'm leaving it and is now intended for people that may read into your original post too much. I do understand where you're coming from.
