i concur, i've never really had any experiance with them but i drove up there sat. and they gave me a few valve spring locks for free

i know they only cost like .50 each, but it was a really nice gesture, and i will be going there for tuning i think, if they can fit me in

Just give us a call and we can take care of whatever you need. And LSONE I am sure we can fit you in just give us a call at the shop. I was the one that gave you the locks, I am always willing to help a fellow car enthusiast out when possible.

I'll be looking for someone to do a spec 3 in the near future also, I'm in Ocala but willing to drive. If a sponsor would like to pm a quote for the install I'd appreciate it.

I'll do it $800 installed... how's that? The only other thing I can think of, it look at getting a new flywheel, or having the stock one resurfaced... I've got an aluminum one in stock, for a heck of a discount that I can't even post up. (Spec would get mad at me. )
