Evo Friendly Shops/Good Dealers

Brien Mitsubishi is the closest one I know of, and unless they are open on the weekends, I would like to find an Evo Friendly shop that is better on thier rates but provides quality work. I will be going home in about a two weeks to my new car and it needs a little work. Nothing serious just a 60k service-

New Plugs (I have NGK "One Step Colder" plugs ready to go, your advice on if these are two cold would be appreciated)
Timing Belt Kit (already have one from Mitsubishiparts.com, ironically enough its in my home state but to far of a drive)
Radiator Flush
Brake Pads/resurafacing of rotors (Hawk HPS pads ready to drop in, saved some money on these vs. the OEM Brembo pads).

Work came out to about 2330.00 for parts and labor, this is NOT counting the money I saved by hunting down better parts/deals. I easily saved myself 400 dollars on the brakes. I have an AEM boost guage that i would like installed seeing as the particular car doesnt have one. Its already been slightly modified, so I dont need to worry about "work under warranty" just leery about taking it to a third party shop w/o good reviews.

How so?

I don't have a good answer for the OP, but if your car is modded, no dealer is going to be friendly. My car is stock, and getting warranty work done at Brien right now, so far so good.

I understand what section to be in, however I was simply asking those in the NW region, more specifically WA. If I need to delete/recock then I will.

He posted up somewhere else that he'll be in WA for about 2 weeks. Probably trying to get work done prior to shipping out.

Dont go to Korum Mitsubishi........ thats my only advice!

If you are going to a dealership in Washington, Korum would be the only one i would suggest, but with the agreement that Luis is the only one that gets to touch the car.

Understandable, no actually I just got back, but I will be driving back down to KS after this but need the work done before that long trip. I'm originally from WA and my dad helped me scout out a good car at home while I was overseas. Ended up with a very clean car, just needs some servicing done. Even has service records in the carfax amazingly, but needs its 60k before i take that trek down to the midwest (ugh.... salted roads).

Depending on your schedule and willingness to drive we can get it in and done and even on the dyno if you'd like.

lol, We were at a small IA base we frequanted quite often, gratuitous cool-guy photo. I didnt take many photos of this deployment, about the only one i have of myself. If you look at the original you can see sans Iraqi guy on in the upper right corner in the "guard tower" (aka stacks of sand bags on top of a hesco with a chair and a PKM).

John Bradley, email sent. Ill call you guys sometime in the next few days.

Fuzzy Doodle-> Definatly my band of choice... Wraith CD is the first one going in the CD player when I get back.

Pretty cool quote, but I'm not a big fan of the band. Saw them live last year and the singer didn't really sound like one of the real screaming bands when he was live. Almost a falsetto screamer, if that is possible?

Where did you see them?

I just seen them for a Second time here a few whiles back, they were suppose to be with As I Lay Dying, which is one of my favorites, but they didn't show.

Omerta is definitely one of the BA songs though, Hourglass.
