Default Best Shop Around

Price and work quality wise, where would best place be to get a Supercharger and gear installed and tuned I'm ok with anywhere between LA and SD. If you can tell me your experiences and what you got done. I haven't heard of anywhere that has a name for Mustangs except for GAS but they a rip off.

Also anyone know where I can buy some stripes I had a conflict with the shop that did mine and don't wanna give them any more work.

yes and no. for people like me to who drive fox bodies, he can change the speedo gear. im assuming this is for the car in your sig. if so, then no, you need a tuner for that. when you get the car tuned, they can take care of fixing the speedo

yes, do NOT go to GAS! They didn't bother to rebalance my painted wheels nor let me know that I needed better dampers with new Pro-Kit springs!
Unless you're trying to pimp out a POS don't take your car there.

for stripes, head out to the valley and go to stickercity.

for more tech stuff, i'd take it to my mechanic joe at chicane sport tuning. works on all mustangs and is very knowledgeable.

I had a fight with Stickercity guys so I ain't going back there they wanted 200$ for the midsection of my bumper I snapped I done a bunch a work with them but no more. For shop I been talking to Impulse they seem like they know what they doing I can't see any work Chicane Sport has done on their site but I'll give them a call see what they can do.

did you tell them joe (mellow) sent you? that's what joe told me to do.

as for chicane, let me know if you plan on going down there. i often go down there to check up on him. plus, his shop always has a bunch of sick mustangs (all years) down there.
