I just talked to Cheuni from Fleming. He said if we get 10, he will do just the walnut blast for 375 and 200 additional for the oil housing. He said normal price "in their specials" for both is 675 for both. So that would be 100 off what they usually charge.

xzibit a: see if you can get a price for the oil housing also so we can compare. Thanks.

Damn thats a great price! Wish I had waited a couple more more month.

Anyway congrats on the move! You know my Bavarian Bitch will come following you to GP...I seriously hope not anytime soon though..lol

PS- Can you PM me later about LSD install, and Turbo upgrade later. Might do one or both later.

At the 10 can mark, Walnut blast + Oil filter housing gasket+ full synthetic oil change
$540 +tax/fees.This also includes a complete vehicle inspection.

Not all 10+ cars have to have the OFHG repair made.

I called there a few weeks ago and he told me 425 for the blast and an extra 100 for the new gaskets. Seems like they raise the price just to put the service on sale.

Has anyone had a cleaning done by GT Peace before? I'm still kinda new to the area. I say lets go with them if they're cheaper and still offer good service.

Its a new shop, They have been open since last summer. I started today so while I have cleaned intakes before i now have the factory tools, And i will make sure its done to the best of my ability. Plenty of people on this board have had me work on their cars and so far i have yet to hear a complaint, and that was working at a 4x4 shop. These guys care a great deal about their customers as do I, you wont be disappointed.

Once we get 10 people i can start scheduling people in. I will do my best to accommodate everyone's schedule as well as my own.

I can vouch for Scott. He has done most of the work on my car, and it's top notch. you won't find anything half assed, which in not what I can say for the Fairfax dealership.

It will most likely happen over a course of a week. Especially if everyone saying they are in actually gets it done. I was told they can do on average 3-4 vehicles a day.

That's good to know, that someone on here has worked with him before and says he does good work.

I am in for W/B - I have a E93 with N55. I don't think it matters right? Located in Tysons so the place is fairly close to me.

No, it doesn't matter. The N54 and N55 have the same problem when it comes to carbon buildup.
