Modded Audi A4

Ryan dropped his Audi A4 back off for a combination of maintenance (Water pump / T-belt / Tensioner Etc) and a few performance upgrades. We freshened up the brakes with a full set of Centric rotors and Hawk / StopTech pads.  A 3" stainless downpipe from 034 Motorsports and a AWE stabilizer mount and poly tranny mount complete the mod list for this go-around.  You can see the upgraded FMIC and a few other updates from past visits :)

We are waiting on an incorrect part to show up but the car is coming along nicely otherwise:

Jandre VR4

This is one of those builds that should have taken a week or two to complete on paper and is now FINALLY coming together.  Gotta love the "Aging" process...
The replacement fuel hat arrived last week and a special fitting got here yesterday to make it all go back together again :)

Paul's TT Stealth

Paul dropped off his TT Stealth to get a few random leaks fixed and then get some final dyno numbers for this set-up.  With the leaks and/or seal problems almost finished we will have dyno numbers available soon!

Built STI Engine

Dave's built STI engine is FINALLY back in the building!  Can't wait to start putting this thing all together and ready to hit the rollers again :)

2011 Sonata Turbo

Ryan stopped by with his new 2011 Sonata Turbo for us to look at building a custom stainless downpipe and possibly cat-back exhaust :)  With the exhaust flowing better it will be time to build a custom Cold-air Intake set-up for the car and call it done on the performance side of things for the time-being.  We will have "Finished" fabrication pics once everything is done and installed :)

Porsche Cayman

Even doing a simple oil change we saved Brad over $100 on what the dealer was quoting him :)

EVO VIII

Steve dropped off his incredibly clean EVO VIII for us to install a QTP Cut-out and do a little fabrication for his catch-can set-up.  Here are a few pics of everything finished up:

David's 350Z

David dropped off his great-looking 350Z to get a new clutch installed, a set of sway bars installed, and a custom exhaust fabricated.  Here are a few "In Process" pics:


Nick's 2004 STI

Nick dropped off his STI to us initially for tuning.  Multiple boost-leaks and other small issues lead to a minor delay while we waited on a new turbo inlet-tube and a set of 750cc injectors.  With the upgraded inlet tube fitting his 20G cleanly and the 750cc's able to supply the fuel the car needed, the tuning went well and the car almost made 350awhp!  Great looking and great driving Suby!

Mark's DSM

Mark brought in his exceptionally clean 1G AWD Turbo Eclipse for a clutch and flywheel upgrade.  On a side-note, this car has the biggest intercooler I have ever seen :)  :)


2004 STI

Eddie towed in his STI and asked us to get it back up and running for him.  He picked the car up yesterday back to running like a champ :) 

13G Stealth TT

Steve dropped off his incredibly-clean and really low-mileage Stealth to get his turbos freshened up and upgraded with a pair of 13G's.  While we were doing the turbos, we took care of a bent wheel, fixed a head-lamp issue, replaced a faulty O2 sensor, and did a fresh coolant and oil change.

Now with the smoking issue corrected this car runs and drives like a brand-new car and looks just as good :)

500+ HP VR4 Exhaust Install

We built this car from top-to-bottom but left the "Custom" exhaust that was already on it alone.  We are upgrading the exhaust now, install a HKS DLI ignition amp, and turn the boost up on the dyno :)

EVO X

Had a client drive from PA to pick up a HKS Cat-back for his EVO X:

Jim took his 2010 Genesis to Kilkare last night and ran a...

12.83 in his 2010 Genesis we just finished for him :)  Congrats to Jim on breaking into the 12s on his first pass on spray and *Almost* breaking the 3.8 Genesis 1/4-mile record!

'02 WRX -- Engine Pull and 120K Service

Robert dropped off his 2002 WRX to get a lengthy list of maintenance done.  We installed new Subaru head gaskets, ARP head-studs, a fresh set of NGK plugs and every other belt and gasket and seal Subaru makes :)
We rounded out the install with a new South Bend Stage 1 clutch assy with Redline and Grimmspeed fluids. 

Since it already had a new turbo and fresh set of mods done prior this is going to be one reliable Subaru for a long long time :)

Angel's TT 300ZX

Angel dropped by to have us do a little maintenance work on his highly-upgraded Twin-turbo 300ZX we did for him a few years ago.  The car looks great with the new wheels, front bumper, and paint job!



STI Corbeau Seat Install

Nik dropped off his Subaru STI for us to install a pair of Corbeau LG1 seats and brackets.  The LG1's look great in the new black suede and even had the optional seat-heaters as well :)


Sean's EVO X

Sean dropped his EVO X back off with 402 miles on the fresh engine and ready for tuning :)

Stay tuned!

379rwhp & 361 ft/lbs -- 2010 Genesis w/100-Shot

2010 Genesis w/Spray

Jim dropped off his 2010 Genesis 3.8 Coupe to have us install a NX Import-kit and GenX2 kit.  We added a digital MSD Window Switch and NOS progressive controller to finish off the install:



Stay tuned for dyno numbers!
