shreves automotive has shut down. Steve was a POS and he ran that place in the ground. Donnie who is now with R&D machine was the only person over there i could stomach and he does some good machine work. He will also help you with the shirt off of his back and last nickel in his pocket.

As far as attempting to sue shreves.....i believe steve is right around the corner. He owns a body shop back there where they moved the dyno too. Why not pop back there and have a little chat with him. I heard baseball bats and brass knuckles help pursuade in your favor.

Shreves is no longer in business so you won't get them on the phone.

Ive heard a mix reactions about Steve. Never any good LSX stories but I have a friend with a MKIV Supra who knows Steve good and I know Steve helps him anytime with anything so the guy aint all that bad, lol. I think the name of the body shop is something like Klins, I'm probably wrong but its sounds like that i'm pretty sure, lol.

yeah.....kleins is the name of the body shop. As to the supra help, the guy just flat out doesn't know what he's doing. From what i hear his supra is a turd. It really does look good, but word on the street is the thing is slow as hell. The guy has a double standard. I parted ways with him when he asked me to leave the shop while they dyno'd a car that i pretty much helped build. I drop my car off to him to get tuned after ford put a new motor in my car under warranty, and i get phone calls from people saying they saw what i made and he let them stay in there. I lost all respect for the guy.

He also was tuning a lightning truck, left the key on and pulled the chip out. Fried the computer then tells the guy i know someone that can get you a good deal on a processor. Steve refused to pay for his stupidity and it cost the guy about $1500 after it was all said and done, AND the truck ran like **** so he had to go get it tuned elsewhere.

By the way nick, i'm trademarking my catchy saying "Steve has blown up more **** than the taliban ™" and i stand by that comment.

It's together. I've been driving it around working out all the bugs and kinks. Transmission keeps locking in 2nd gear every now and then. I have so much electronic **** on this car i still have yet to master it all. I might have a small error in the program i wrote for the shift points so i've been working on eliminating all of that crap.

It's pointless on my daily tires. It just destroys them. Slicks on the way

I've never delt with him myself so I can't relly say anything else, just what I've heard from friends of mine. But ******* someone out of $1500 aint right and sad to say it but in the city we live in, hes lucky he didn't get an *** beating for that.
