I know a friend on base that brought his FC over there to have work done on it. He initial recommended the place then he said that they charge too much but that could just be his personal opinion. I don't know the particulars that brought him to this conclusion. Money varies from person to person what a lot is to one could be pocket change to another.

Rick owns an RX-8 automatic and added a Greddy turbo kit. In the winter he's usually busy doing motor rebuilds for RX-7s. He's a good guy and knows his stuff.

I was looking for a recommended tuner shop that's familiar with an AT turbo setup
