Default Thumbs Up for Nick @ Newtech!!

Well, just thought I would share my experience incase someone was looking for someone to do some work on their car. We were installing my McLeod Twin at a friends house and had some issues so I decided to let a professional do it. I called Nick and he agreed right away even though the car was somewhat apart (I know some shops to like to deal with stuff like that) So my wife towed the car down there on Wednesday and on Thursday I got a call from Nick saying the car was done. I was actually surprised it got done that quick, I was expecting to pick it up next week.

Well today I got the chance to go pick it up and am very happy with the work that was done. He installed the clutch and some new spark plugs which I needed and even adjusted the temp at which my fans come on (I had mentioned to him that I didnt like when they came on) So that was cool that I dont have to worry about that now. Well once my clutch is broken in im gong back for a tune on 91 octane, so it should be fun.

Anyway, if you see this Nick I just wanted to say Thanks again I will definitely recommend you to all my LSX buddies

Yep, thanks guys. Its always hard to find someone you can trust to work on your car. There are a few good shop in CA (and around that area) but I figured I would give Nick a shot. I seen a few vids of car's he's tuned and was pretty impressed. Needless to say he wil get my future business.
