Stay away from them. Nothing but bad things about those guys. Look them up on honda-tech you'll see all the horror stories. I learned from personal experience with them. Some shady *** fools.

There is like a 30 page or something near that post full of horror stories about lab junkies. It seems like the only way they did quality work was when the customer spent BIG money with them. Thats no way to opporate though.
