Lightbulb For the DFW area!

I've been looking around for a good shop in the area to do some engine builds, and some other "trained professional required" mods and finally found a big name joint (honestly I was dreading letting some newbie install and dyno a blower)

You've got Livernois in MI
and AMP Performance in AZ
and a few other big names I don't feel like mentioning else-wheres

What does Texas have?

the shop is in Garland (which is quite a drive for most of the DFW area) but it beats driving out of state or trusting your expensive engine work to someone who probably isn't qualified.. (unless you can do it yourself, more power to you.. I'm not proficient enough to trust myself yet)

Everything from buying wheels or tires to installing turbos and blowers


The only thing I have bad to say about these guys is their website sucks. Half the links don't work and you can't find much more info other than what services they offer and where they are located. But the prices I've seen seem reasonable, they don't overcharge for labor like the dealership does but have the same if not better knowledge when it comes to performance.

Not that it matters to me, but do you actually have experience with them? If not, how do you know they are so qualified? Big names don't always mean best quality. Just saying and no offense to you.

No no "personal" experience, but they look a lot better than all the other shops I've seen around this area.. I know what you mean though, all I did was see it driving by then went to the website and jumped to the conclusion that they must be good since they claim to be one of the VERY few places in the area with a dyno and do blower/turbo installs.

I've been looking for places that do forced induction on mustangs and so far these are the only guys I've found that SEEM qualified. Every other shop has said they don't do it or they will but they don't have a dyno. Slim pickins over here
