Good pics, and I'm really glad to see that there's a reputable shop so close by now (and not in NoVA). I hope that be able to make it down andpatronize you all in the next couple years (currently @ VT, but I live 30 minutes north of Mt. Airy, NC and 1 hr north of Winston-Salem).

350zDCalb- I noticed your location is ex-los angelos, where are you now?

+1 on the reputable shop comment. Matt, Eric, Ralph and of course Sharif really seem to know what they're doing. I'd drive 8 hours for an install and tune again for sure! BTW, when does Eric sleep?

It is a known fact, that Eric actually sleeps standing up, with his eyes open...its a remarkable skill really.

Great pics and good to see the people I'm trusting my car with. Can't wait to drive up later this month for the install.
