whats up. im not really new to this area at all. as a matter of fact i lived here my whole life until last year. i had to move to st. louis cause of my dad's job. i just graduated high school, and am now living with my friend. im in palatine, like a mile from harper junior college if you know where that is. im sometimes at streets of woodfield if you ever see me, im in the t-red 98 svt with missouri plates.
i got the svt in st. louis so i dont know the area here that well as far as tuning shops go. like i hear car boutique(sp?) kind of rips you off. i went to one6 the other day, they seemed pretty knowlegable. anyways i really need a new res. i had mine cut and it sounds like crap. does any one know where i could get one and get it hung for a reasonable price. im gonna get the magnaflow 5x8.
any ways sorry to get long winded. thanks for any help. i might go to the show at 66, but thats also the day of a concert i might go to. whatever, keep on rollin and killing hondas.
on the road of life there are fast cars, and then there are hondas.

Welcome to the CCEG. Car Boutique and APG performance (Woodale IL) are the biggest ripoffs in the area. Overpriced and questionable service. I have heard people having problems with parts installed from both places. Not to mention no shop around here sells anything for the Contour.
