well i used to bring my focus to them... everytime i got it back somethin else went wrong...
I just got my evo recently and it started again...
the last straw was i brought it to them to change the timing belt... they changed it and i got it back and i was like something doesnt feel right... they were like its fine so i left and went only a few miles up the st to my friends house parked stayed there for the night... the next day i drove him to work and on my way back to his house after droppin him off i heard a loud bang and then metal clanging around and then tons of smoke pouring out of the engine bay...pulled over got it towed to esp... went there the next day they said an exhaust manifold bolt shot out and oil leaked on the turbo manifold... they said all the bolts were loose and that someone must have loosened them... the only thing is no one had touched the car but them since i bought it so its kinda questionable... mind you the car still didnt feel fine when it left there the 2nd time... again they said its fine and timed correctly... i didnt believe so i went to westboro mitsubishi and sure enough it wasnt timed right and they fixed it and now it feels great
so i guess i have just lost confidence in them

any mechanic would know to not rely on the plastic marks on the timing cover. If you use the marks on the pullys in the timing case everything lines up good. (found out the hard way)

True, I'm not personally a fan of the reg lancers but thats just my opinion. The calender looks great though. I especially dig August, Oct and the GG in mid air (march).
