Or mine or Mike's name....we've only been recommending him to you guys for about 7 years now. I'm glad some folks are starting to pay attention. I wouldn't take a Honda to anyone else.

He took his recently rebuilt MR2 for a local test run a couple of weeks ago. Says he was doing about 40mph in 3rd when he decided to let 'er rip to see how the new turbo worked out. Apparently the tires lit up like a good day at the dragstrip and the car instantly attacked a nearby telephone pole. Was running boost at about 40! It didn't help that all that power and some car lightening lifted the front end and he had no steering traction. Nasty center punch on the MR2. He wasn't wearing a seat belt either and managed to contact the windshield. I think he's lucky as shit to be walking around right now.

Simon he has many stories of stuff like that. i have been trying to get him out to an event or 5 this up coming year.

If any of you talk to this Gary guy regularly, would you ask him something for me? I'm wondering if he's ever done an S2000 clutch. I don't need one yet, but am considering replacing it anyway, as a precautionary measure.

Hell, if this guy will pass Jeremy's miata, then everyone with questionable exhaust should go to this place

. I guess I don't have to put my OE catback on for inspection

Mike and I have been doing the same. We always hear about how he's going to whoop up on us in his del Sol....then the MR2. I think Gary's one of those guys that's better suited to be under the hood of the car than behind the wheel...see Simon's post above. :lol:

ya he says he has done bunchs of them. Sometimes the clutch fork can be a pain in the hind quarters but he can do it. call him direct 467-0633

Thanks to all for the suggestions. I'll either try Jiffy lube or Gary. I must have just run into a jerk. BTW, the car is still quiet enough for Anders to sneak in late at night.
