Question Good shop in chicago area?????

Live in the west suburbs

After having a terrible experience with LS1 Speed Inc in Schaumburg I would NEVER take a vehicle back there. took them 14 weeks to get a 4l60e transmission done, was given the run around- millions of excuses, was greasy inside, radio presets all changed, missing half tank of gas, car had new scratches, etc.

I then took another car to Modern Muscle in Oswego and I havent been terribly impressed but there work was okay. They have much better customer service but I feel like there work isnt top notch- the welds werent pretty, they had trouble doing my electronics, and the job took over 4 weeks when i was given a one week estimate (granted they were doing custom wiring so I understand to a point going over).

Im trying to find a GOOD shop in the area- that I can rely on to finish jobs close to on time, be honest, and do great work. didnt realize that this was asking so much...

I was happy with my experience at Straightline Performance. Which western suburb are you located in?

Yeah I'd say check out Straightline in New Lenox. Might be a little bit of a hike for you buy I'm sure you wouldn't mind it especially if you know that you're paying for exceptional work.
