San Diego/SoCal Shops

I'm still relatively new to the San Diego area, and I'm looking for a good shop that works on Acuras (specifically, I have a 2002 TL). Does anyone have a good one they could recommend? Thanks.

we've been using JC Service for years. honda/acura certified and ASE Certified Master Mechanics.
J C Svc (858) 292-8042 7879 Raytheon Rd San Diego, CA

if you need a tuner go w/clpower's suggestion but if you're in a pinch look up group5 motorsport. they're ok....a bit shady though.

STAY AWAY FROM PANN AUTO. THEY'RE BUTCHERS.

group5motorsports/pannauto are very good people to me... sorry you didn't have the greatest of service from them.

pannauto is more geared towards the 'young'ens' of san diego who are looking to lower/make their cars louder, but if you actually talk to the mechanics johnny/randy back there they're actually a really knowledgable guys and will do what you want to ur car

Mike isn't the only person i've heard say G5 is a little shady, but unfortunately that's the case w/ about 90% of all auto related companies

I'm looking for a place that can do suspension, intake, headers, exhaust, etc. I was thinking about checking out Group 5 because the place is about half a mile from my work (Sony Online), but if they are too shady I won't bother. A friend of mine said he knew a place a bit north of SD that was good, so after I find out the name of the place I'll post it and see if anyone has any opinions (apparently about 5 of my friends out here have gone there).

I know mechanics who have worked on cars that have come over after pann worked on them. pann jacked up the cars so bad that they had to be taken to ASE certified mechanics to get them running again.

Shwayd, JC service can handle the type of work you're looking for.
