why should he know what 518 motorsports is?

only reason I know is that I drove by it once when it was on central.

drove by it on my way to job #2 around 4:20ish yesterday and saw kramerbucks (ya, I know i spelled it wrong, dont care enough to look it up) altima parked out front.

I heard about this place back when he was on Central but never got to actually see it.

What exactly does he have inside? Didn’t the Central place have a Dyno?

Anymore details? I might be goin to Crossgates tonight to have a guy at Best Buy test my AVIC-Z2 (I think my sub pre-outs are dead) so I might shoot by and check it out.

Parts for? Certain makes/models or the universal stuff you find at Auto Zone (exhaust tips, etc. lol).

anything… it’s a performance shop. They don’t stock many parts, but will order whatever the hell you want.

I’m just assuming since i have never done business with them, but this is how 99.7% of performance shops work.

yup, that was me. what car were you in?

it’s a pretty sweet little shop, no lift in it yet though. 2 bays and a nice little waiting room/office area attached to it. he seems to be happy there.

Gotcha. Thanks. I’ve never personally been to a speed shop. I’ll have to stop in and check it out.

As for the dyno…so the closest one to us it that one in Amsterdam?
