Turner/Mechanic in Houston

Can anyone recommend a good tuner shop/mechanic shop near the Galveston Area?

I purchased a used 2004 with a greddy turbo bolt on, and other day the car died on me while driving. When I pulled over and tried restarting the car, it sounding like it wasn't firing. I changed the spark plugs, but the car still won't turn over. I'm going to have to suck it up and pay someone to fix it, but I have no idea where to take it.

I would prefer somewhere near Galveston as I'm going to have to tow the car(most likly going to have to pay a towing service). I want a good, reputable place, so if I have to go way into Houston, then I will. Phone numbers and addresses would be a great help if you happen to have them, but I can always look those up. I just need the name of places.

Thank You

I know Dallas has many places that you can go to. Have you looked at the tune of the car? What EMS are you using? All those details can help determine who can help you with the situation. There are many capable people in Houston, that can easily accomplish it, I wonder if they will post.

Thanks for the response. I've found a place that was recommended by a couple of people, so my car is there already.

thanks.

Brian called me, and said you were in need of a stock airbox and exhaust manifold. Call me, Brian has my number and he said he will give you my number. Why not try to just make the whole thing work?
