Dude this must be the best video find of the year!!!
I am nowhere near close to a mechanic, I fix my own car issues and learn where I can. I forwarded this to some of my friends (who are shop owners) and they know this feel.

Good vid but what he said can happen in quite about all trades.

Do your homework then choose.

Thumbs up

This should be made a sticky in the FI section! A definite must see video that every NOOB should see before they pull the trigger on going FI.

True, but I'll take good advice from 3x over some of the crap posted over and over and over again by "that guy", he describes at the end of his videos, who post the same imbecilic grammar-absent rhetoric trying to tell me something I don't already know.

Also, I'm curious about the 15 shops he approached for the event. I feel like that has to be a pretty reputable list, but know of at least 2 in the tri-state area, JDS and R/T Tuning, that I've heard only great things about. Having experience with both shops, I give them great praise, too.
