Default St. Louis shops?

Ok, I'm getting too lazy to search for stuff, and this aint an easy one to search anyways. Who knows of any shops/vendors/sponsors in the greater St. Louis area? I've been on the lookout and have only heard of so far, a couple of import performance specialists and one 4x4 place (1st Capitol 4wheel drive). Where are they???

What exactly are you looking for? Here's a few: Performance parts plus in Granite City, IL, just outside of StL. Wise speed shop in South StL City. Lowe performance in Alton, IL. Then you have the shops with dynos: Mustang Muscle in High Ridge, MO, Steigemeyers in St. Charles, MO. and you already aware of Pur Performance (1st Capitol 4x4). Hope that helps..

The reason I ask is I've never seen any advertisements to speak of, and I'm looking for some places to get some work done on my LT1 TA (when I get it). And just out of curiosity, does buisness for these guys slow down in the winter? Thanks for the responses!

He asked for sponsors in the StL area, not out of town. A-man930, if you need more info, PM me due to my last post being erased for political reasons...

No, the "out of town" names are cool too, just as long as they're not more than 2 hrs away from St. Peters.
