Bigger the shop the more you should plan on spending(usually). But expect to get what you pay for. All three that have been mentioned above I have heard lots of great things about. Good luck with your decision and let us know how it goes!

I like JDM... I had my Alum. Driveshaft installed there, and some suspension issues taken care of. They know the S197 inside and out. Definately pricey, but worth it IMO. I plan on getting a set of Kooks LT's installed there soon.

im going to call Tillman today...oh joy!
No need to dyno tune for just a cold air and gears. Most of the well known shops have pretty good custom tunes right out the box. If you just want to dyno your car to see whats your hp/tq numbers and to make sure the air/fuel ratio is safe then thats fine, but there is no need for a full blown dyno tune for a cai. Once you get more mods then some fine tuning might be needed.

You aint kidding, I have been doing business since they were out of his backyard. I wanted them to do my blower, they had a sale on the dyno tunes until the end of Oct. I had my car in for gears on 10/30 and set up the deal on the blower, told him I would have an answer the next day. Called on the 31st, his mech. saud he would call me back. Called once again right before closing and Joe had left already. Next day 11/1, he said the sale was over, laughed and said "guy, I dont have time to wait for a customer to come up with $200, that sale ended yesterday" So he laughed his way out of 7K and it went to JDM in NJ. They set the bar in customer service for me, so I make the trip to NJ for now on.
