alternatives to Z Car Garage for tuning/modding G35 engine

Hi all- I'm looking at having some supercharger-related work on my G35 and although Z Car Garage seems to be the default "go to" spot, I've read about them being really busy and thus taking a long time to get the work done.

Have any of you worked with any other shops (EIP Racing?) that you could recommend?

Again, this is related to the engine and supercharger, not suspension/alignment/etc.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Forum member Don (dofu) is friends with the guys at EIP. You might want to PM him and he can give you info about that shop.

not too sure about their work with a superchargers but i know they do alot of fi'd cars. always a bunch of stis and evos out there. they are going to do my buddys na supra once the turbo manifold is fabbed.

they have tuned a few g's here but none fi'd that i know i was going to be the first with my pulley but im way out of the area now =D

my vortech was put installed in san diego by speedforceracing they did a good job finished in one day saturday none the less with 30 minutes notice tune and all. If you dont mind the drive or a tow id take it there. they have worked on 2 5at's vortech's and the owner has a tt z.

If your even contemplating driving down south you might as well think about GTM too, they have done 100's of FI cars.

Thanks for the tips everyone. I'm most likely not going to send (or drive) the car down south. Would prefer to have the work done in NorCal.

Anyone have suggestions other than EIP and tzcg in Norcal?
