Money better spent elsewhere... 3/29/2012

If your an average joe who likes to mod their car... you'd be better off researching other tuner shops in the OKC area and spending your hard earned money there. My last experience with alternative motorsports was with my 96 integra gs-r with a failing thermostat. i was 17 years old at the time, just getting into tuning cars and learning how to work on them properly, so wanting to have the thermostat properly installed while having new motor mounts and strut mounts installed on a daily driver was important. As i pulled out of their parking lot, i noticed more clunking from the front suspension than when i brought it there. Not knowing at the time i continued driving home, all the while my temp gauge going up up up then down dramatically, over and over. got home and found coolant pooling underneath my vehicle. looked around and saw the thermostat gasket halfway installed correctly, with coolant pouring out around it. 2 strut mount nuts loose on the strut tower, and other janky things they did without putting things back correctly. called em up and asked what could be going on and immediately denying that it could be there fault... umm hello!!! u just installed this t-stat and now the gasket is in half-assed!!! not gonna bash them, just won't return ANY business to them. Looking back on this single event, is what turned me into the ASE master certified tech i am today, ill never let another technician touch my car (unless its warranty repairs :).. their workmanship is just poor... I guess their techs don't test drive and check the work they do. If your gonna spend hard earned money, do it somewhere that'll treat you AND your car right... cuz thats what were all in this for right??? the fun of it? having a car as an outward expression? SO.. all in all, don't take your car to this shop. theres 3 out of 4 bad reviews so far.. and 1 review berating another reviewer (the pissy one probably works for alt motorsports) a 25% approval rating??? you be the judge... more
