Where to get suspension set up in NOVA/DC/MD?

Whats up guys? I have the Tien flex installed, adjustable rear camber arms, and sway bars. I just can get my car to handle right. In fact, it handles like dog ****. I need to get someone to corner balance my car and set up my suspension. With all the money I have in the suspension, someone with skills should be able to get it to handle. I just don't know enoguh about preload and all the other things that should be set.

Rock and Roll,

Jon

How is is handling badly? if your sway is adjustable, it's always recomended to set it at medium setting and start from there. You camber, any allignment shop can adjust to oem spec. Your Tein Flex, it's probably wise to start in the middle setting and play with it until you get what you like. Sounds like everything you have can be easily adjusted by the user, so just play around. Nobody's going to know what setting is suitable for you, other than yourself.

I have been playing with it for years now and keep making it worse or I am never really happy. Guys with alot of racing experience can set up a car like mine in no time to handle better than i can drive it. I am at the point where i just want to pay to get it set up professionally.

Well, I used to work at the Great Falls location and ask for Andrew to setup an appointment. A guy named Galen is really good at dealing with aftermarket parts. If you plan to drop the car off, get a guy named Frank to do it. He takes his time in everything but make sure if you go to him, to get the car there early b/c he usually has a full plate daily. Tell them, Jon the owner of Pimp Hand sent you....Haha for real, tell them that, they'll know who your talking about. Good luck.
