Question Performance shop in Maryland or VA?

Just got off of the phone with RP Performance and I refuse to have any more work done by them. I thought they were known for good service but not from my experience.

Does anyone know of another shop in the Maryland area that is good with installing parts on the RX8?

Can you elaborate your experience with RP??
Is it the RP shop located in VA???
Well, I know a shop in MD but they dont' specialize in rotaries.
Its called Mid Atlantic Motorsports.
If you are not going to have them do any engine work,
then it should be ok to do things with them.
It is located on harford road in Parkville Area.
hope it helps.

The owner Bret is a huge liar and tries to sucker people. It a very long story but to make it shore:

A). RP Performance did the installation of my Racing Beat Clutch, Flywheel and Pressure Plate WRONG! Had to take it back out and the put my stock clutch back in.

B). Tried to say it was the product not the installation! WRONG AGAIN!

C). Once Racing Beat did the full diagnostics on the car, I was told by Racing Beat it was not due to the Product but installation.

D). I then turn to RP Performance and told them the outcome of the investigation into the clutch setup. He told me that he would give me the money back for the Parts but not labor. Had a huge argument and then had to tell him I would deal with it in court. Finally after 2 months I'm going to get all of my money back including installation.

I refuse to deal with a shop that does such business. I'm a business man myself and have my own company and I would never do such a thing.

Anyway's RP Performance in located in Manassas VA and I higher recommend NOT going there!

You may want to try Brown Mazda in Fairfaix VA 703-267-3225. They did a wonderful job with my RB flywheel for a reasonable price around $500. Everything is running smooth. If you do decide to use them ask for Greg.
