I'm from GTA.

For exhaust work, I went to "NOYZBOYZ PERFORMANCE Exhaust" in Scarborough.

Excellent work, tight.

I am knowledgable and able to do most maintence myself (plugs, brakes, fluid changes etc.) however it's not getting any warmer out and it takes me longer than those who perform these tasks daily.


Thanks for your help

p.s. I am in the Newmarket area if there is one in upper york reigon that would be great.

I'm from the Newmarket area too depends on what kind of work you are looking to get done, I seem to have a certain go to guy for everything lol. It's good to see other people from the Newmie area on here! I'm away at school right now but me and my bro are both rollin' in 3G NBP TL's, his is Type-S (bastard). Which shop was screwing you around?

I just bought a house in brampton friday! i was planning on some xs headers soon, but they might be delayed a bit now. I have the supercomuper pedals to put in when spring comes though. I see a few CLs around but none of them look like they would be on this site. I'm working in north sauga. I love the TLs too. Especially the 2nd gen. ones. Really classy looking.

its a small shop that specializes in only acura and honda cars. ive been there twice, there are about 2-4 people working there. The main guy's name i believe is...Ken..but im not 100% sure about that. I went there to check why im getting a funny idle, made an appointment (needed), he ended up cleaning my IACV and charging me 40$ and car has been running smooth ever since. The second time i went there because the tranny on my parents TL crapped out, the guy said he could do it for me but actually recommended that i go somewhere else because he cant provide a warranty(Mr.Transmission, Aamco). Honest guys, seem to know acura's and honda's really well. As far as their pricing, u can call them and they'll give u an estimate.


and i was actually gonna post here to say that i think i might have seen u around mavis/burnhamthorpe in mississauga about a month ago hahaha

Mississauga here too - just got a CLS 6-speed last month.

Also have a buddy down the street with the same NBP 6-speed as me.

Mistazoom I think I saw you on the 401 a few weeks back.
