Yea man I'd go with Richmond Honda, or maybe R.P.M., but I've heard mixed emotions about that place, so don't quote me on that...

im still pulling for Chris (Cimburke23) he has alot of expirience under his belt. He also was the first in our area with a B20 swap, he did my LS/VTEC, he also has coverted alot of cars from DUAL POINT to MULTI POINT, he also can rebuild tranny's (he needs to know how with all the tranny's we break), like i said Hope knows his **** but he is pricey, but from the way your talking your giving the job to Chris which is sweet, believe me you wont regret it, he is great with all cars but with hondas he is unbelieveable, and he has great troubleshooting skills, ive never seen him face a problem he couldnt solve and fix.

Bump for Chris - he really knows his stuff. He replaced my blown GS-R engine for me. At least stop by and check out his work before you make any decision!
