However i have always taken my car to atlantic autosports on va beach blvd.

However if anyone sees this post and is willing to part with HFCs or Headers for a good price and verified by atlantic autosports as being legit equipment im willing to purchase, just send me a pm

But yea after my car is modified up to my standards i will def be willing to join some clubs or come to events that i saw in the first page or so of this thread ��
I lost faith with Atlantic Autosports after they couldn’t balance my wheels properly. I gave them 3 tries and still had more than one wheel vibrating at low high way speeds. After Atlantic couldn’t get it right I went to Alloy Wheel of Virginia in Hampton who was recommended by a buddy. They got it right the first time and the balance was good all the way up to 150+ mph (Dislamer: that was during a HPDE at VIR). They seem to be a good group of guys but the attitude I got over the wheel balance issue was discouraging. I might give them another try for minor cosmetic items but anything else especial performance items I don’t trust them.

Just my that's all.

Atlantic is excellent for tint/audio and basic **** and even some minor engine stuff. I had them swap out my intake runners with ported runners on my old TSX and install the downpipe/2nd cat delete along with brakes. Excellent work. Drove it another 38k miles with zero issues. Some **** they are good with, some they're not. But you would think wheel balancing would be one of the things they're good at. But you gotta remember the majority of their clientele. Those fuckers never go over 20 for fear of busting their 80" wheels. Lol

They did my ceramic tint. Great install and they knew not to **** up my interior. Did a great job.
