I have a few up-coming mods I need to have done to my G37S Coupe but I can't seem to find enough places that install performance parts. I did find one in Manassas and they seem pretty legit. I would like to locate another so I can do a quality and price comparison. Any forum members from around here, that can help?

Go and check out Pohanka Acura....the tech's there work after-hours in the garage, and take cash payments for all work and installs.

In a few weeks I will need my Gen 3 installed. Sometime in March or end of Feb I will need to have rear camber and spring installed...and also have tires intalled on 20' Vossens along with alignment.

paying to install an intake is not really a good idea. i think the stillen instruction is pretty straight forward so take your time and follow the guide while having nice bonding time with your g. its pretty much straight forward.
but installing your suspension part is different story, you would need spring extractor and power tools! so go and make an appoint @ ptuning in mannasas. their a bit pricy but they have alignment machine there too so knock out 2 bird with 1 stone.
oh yeah, they also have touchless tire mount system so, do your wheels there too.

I've put a lot of thought into the idea of installing it myself but because I:

1. Would need to buy the dremmel for at least $85
2. Don't have a garage
3. It's cold as f*@k

It seemed more logical to just pay the $175 and have them do it.

Yeah, I've pretty much been using them and plan to for my suspension and wheel install. They appear to be legit and prices aren't outrageous. BTW, someone hooked me up with a link on youtube that showed how to do the install of the GEN 3...I will definitely be doing my own install. Didn't realize how straight forward it really is. Considering all of the other mods I still have to get done that I def can't do, it makes sense for me to do this one on my own. Thanks for you help!
