I had them performed an engine swap in my Jaguar. The job was complicated because I had a Corvette 5.7L engine used to replace the 4.0L Jaguar engine. The job was completed in 2 days without any problem. Other shops that wanted the job asked for 7 days at least. I'm glad I found these guys - they are now mechanic for life. Good job!!! I will highly recommend you to everyone.

I arrived at the Santee, CA location for my appointment on Monday. The representative looked at their computer and requested when I had made the appointment. I was then informed that the technician who does air conditioning won't be in until Saturday! It was fairly obvious this was the first time the appointments were checked. If the appointment had been checked earlier, I could have been called. This is poor customer service. It would appear you need to update your website so that occurrences such as this would not be allowed. That is, if a technician is not available, do not let the appointment be scheduled.

Took my 2019 Mustang GT to them after being told the dyno tune and e85 conversion would cost $1,400.00. An hour after dropping off the car my son (his car) was called and told they couldn't do the E85 conversion without a kit and the cost to tune the car would be $2045.00. They said it was more work than they anticipated. They are are called the Dyno Shop but don't know what it entails to tune a stock 2019 GT? Unfortunately my son told them okay and they did the tune. No complaints on the work done. When we picked the car up Hayden, the mechanic, said he would only charge $200.00 to install the flex fuel kit if we brought it back to them. stupidity on my part but we purchased the kit and brought it back to them. Like clock work, they call an hour later and say it will cost $500.00 and we need to bring them a card for the tuner claiming it didn't come with one. My son says okay again and brings them the card. Two days later we get the car back at a cost of $795.00. The tuner was not hooked up only the card was programmed with the settings. He said that would be extra to install and hook up the tuner. Seriously? When my son went to hook up the tuner the card that came with it (the one they said it didn't have) was in the tuner and blank meaning he only programmed the card we bought and never tested the tuner. When we installed the card Hayden programmed it was blocked by firewall issues. I called and complained to the owner (Mark) who was cool other than saying we should have just said no to the price changes and didn't seem concerned about that being a poor business practice. He arranged for the car to be taken care of on a Saturday and said the tuner would be fixed and installed for us in the dash as it is supposed to be. My son took it in and it was fixed however Hayden refused to install it in the dash as Mark promised. $2800.00 bill and that's the service you get... Buyer beware. They can tune cars but it will cost you double the estimate if you want it done by them.

Absolutely TERRIBLE. I started calling at 8:00 to inquire about bringing my truck in for a smog check. I called continuously and the phone was finally answered at 8:08. I was told that they don’t take appointments, so I took my truck in by 8:25, at which time I was told that there was a 1 hour wait time and that he would call me when it was done. I left the truck and went home rather than wait there. After 1 hour and 40 minutes with no phone call, I called for a status. He said that they were having trouble with the machine and that they were taking the truck in right now. He should have called to let me know this after 1 hour (Website claims #1 Great Customer Service and #2 Reliability are both FALSE). He finished the call with telling me that it would be finished in 45 minutes. I waited for 45 minutes, then went in to pick up the truck. After standing in the shop for nearly 10 minutes with mechanics walking past me and no one offering to help me (Website claim #1 Great Customer Service is again FALSE), I saw my truck parked behind the shop, so I went to take a look to see if it looked like anything had been done. I found the truck with the door open and the key in the ignition with the ignition beeping. The truck was just a couple of feet from the sidewalk and street. ANYONE walking by on the sidewalk definitely would have heard the beeping, and known that the key was in the ignition. If they had decided to steal the truck it would have been gone in 2 seconds with absolutely NO chance of the theft being stopped. This is INCREDIBLY IRRESPONSIBLE and leaved the El Cajon Smog owner liable to buying me a brand new truck. I took the key out and closed the door and went back around to the front of the shop. After standing there for several more minutes, someone finally offered to help me. I was told that the truck STILL had not been taken in. The guy added that they were going to take it in right now, even though all of the bays were full. Yet ANOTHER lie? (Website
