Little help with finding a shop for engine work near Cerritos

hey guys, i'm pretty new to the forum.
Story begins with that .. I drive this 2004 black G35 coupe with APS single turbo. I've had turbo on my car for about bit more than 2 years and mileage on the car is little less than 100k.

Yesterday, I was heading out somewhere so I turned on the ignition and there was an engine oil pressure light on.. I used to be a mechanic and a manager at a repair station so I did few things myself to test and see what's up. (to make the story short, won't explain what I did)
It's pretty much toward engine got ****ed up. Probably a major headgasket leaking or oil seal somewhere .. and also considering that the pressure sensor is pretty new(less than a year old)...

So here I'm looking for a shop who can do some work on my car.
I need a shop to check and make sure first that what the actual problem is.
Then I might wanna go with lightly built engine because I'm not looking to race but still enjoy the boost =)

I'm also new to this area so please help me out guys.
I want to know some decent shop that doesn't overcharge and do a quality job.

Appreciated..

Corner 3 Garage in Lake Forest, hands down. http://www.corner3garage.com/corner3/

Steve (the co-owner) was a Nissan master tech and they specialize in VQs! They have done tons of forced induction builds and they are awesome guys over there (Nima is the other co-owner) Both of them are great guys and will take care of your car like it is their own.
