GT Peace

Dropped of my daily driver to these guys and they did a great job of bringing back to where it should be.

$5k well spent, would I use them again - absolutely!

No affiliation, just a happy client!

It was an endless list. Now the car is running perfect and sets it up for power mods and suspension.

when you say set up for power mods, did they build the engine?

I'm guessing supporting mods like valve cleaning and replacing plugs/coils/injectors/bushings, etc.

I had a good experience with them when I did the walnut blasting. They arent cheap and I am so I won't go there for anything else. I got up sold on doing the plugs while there and it took the very reasonable walnut blasting price and shot my cost up towards a grand. For 5K I'd be interested in an itemized list of what was done cause...holy crap!

$399 for walnut blasting is a great deal IMO. How the hell was it an extra 600 to swap plugs? It takes maybe an hour to do if you're taking your time.

It pushed it up to 700ish I think. I exaggerated unfairly. Still for the cost of plugs and the labor to do it I’ll take it on next time I’ve changed plenty of plugs.

GTPeace is increasingly getting expensive, may be only 15-20% less than the sterling stealership.

They are not exactly cheap, but they are great value, and their work is freaking awesome!
I sold my car at 175K, full time street/daily duties and track! They maintained it.

Everyone who drove my car thought it was a 30K mile car. Try the dealership, they charge an arm and a leg, and cant install plugs or bolt your subframe in.

If youre in the NoVa area its GTPeace or RRT

BTW people who are questioning OP what he spent 5 K on. Find him and drive his car. You'll know where the 5K went. Maintaining these cars isnt really cheap. He probably got all bushings, suspension, belts, gaskets, radiator, plugs/coils, hoses done. Thats a longs list! he should be good for another 100K miles.

Most people will spend 5K on new VTT turbos and ignore all the stuff around it. Thats how you get absolute shit cars.

The arent cheap, but you get same or better value than the dealer, backed by warranty on their work.
