Nope, I'm busy looking into a new career that day. But still I'm never been impressed with them since it took a month and a half to get me a strut bar then charged me twice and refussed to rufund the second payment. Pass

It's good to see that they hadn't changed since I first met them, years ago. Went there to see about some plug wires. All the SPI sedan had done was a K+N drop in and a strut tower bar. No rims, nothing. They came out and were like "wow, you've got it all tuned up". Uhm, what? Tint and a strut tower bar?
I then remember ordering said spark plug wires and having them tell me that they fit ALL first-gen motors. Conveniently they were unaware of the SPI as a different motor than the Zetec, nor did they read their own part descriptions when they ordered them. Cost me shipping to send them back, and all I got in return IIRC was a set of plate frames.
You could tell me I'd get free dyno time there with a tune package and I'd still pass them by.
