Somebody was asking for it!!!
I commend those shops whom have viewed this poll and have not voted for themselves; let's give credit to those guys as it shows no sign of desperation or untactful "poll bumping."
1+ Props for MRC, if you guys weren't so far away, I would totally trust taking my car to you. Polls like these do not only show the public's opinion, but a shop owner's character as well.

JE has been featured on the cover of Turbo multiple times with rides like the Knighthawk 240sx, and some RB26 G35's as well as some TT G35's. Turbo mag doesn't mess around, they have also recently featured Sharif @ Forged performance's work in a recent issue.
They offer corner balancing, dyno tuning, on track suspension tuning, and probably the best fabrication work in MD, exotic metal welding service also available.

If you are willing to spend a little more on labor there's a fantastic shop next to Function:tuned called Funktion Auto (not saying that function:tuned isnt a great shop). The owner is a licensed SCCA race car driver and ill tell you i have never dealt with a more professional and courteous business man. I trust him and his staff with my car more than i do myself, and thats def a good feeling to have considering i am an unnecessarily **** person. Plus it's pretty awesome to see your car an a lift next to a Radical sr3. Im not shooting down the guys at Function:tuned (had a nice experience over there when i had my plenum and spacer installed), but if your driving down there you might as well drop by and take a look at Funktion auto, its on the way.
heres a link to their website:http://funktionauto.com/

Thanks for the props everyone! Its really about taking care of you guys 100%! That and this is supposed to be FUN!
Its my job to advise you on plans for now and the future, implement those plans, ensure the car functions (hmmmm....function) and is tuned (hmmm.....tuned) properly and that you continue to enjoy your car for a LONG time to come.
I'm a TOTAL dork when it comes to seeing a happy client.
Tuna saws "woof" too BTW

+1 MRC is definitely up there in terms of service (and not voting for themselves) and support too bad you suckers are far away, sad face.

Thanks for the loaner.
My vote's going to F:T because Dave has been great to talk to about the plans for my car and has answered any question I've asked no matter how obvious the answer may have been. I know he'll take great care of my car when I drop it off Monday to get my Greddy kit put on.
+1 on Tuna

heres a pic of inside the Funktion auto shop. and believe me the quality of their shop only reflects the quality of their work and service. If i was spending a load of cash installing a big budget project like a twin turbo, i would trust the guys at Funktion auto more than any other shop ive been to so far. and not to mention they charge less than the exxon and shell gas stations near my house.
