Looking for a shop.

Recently got my Invidia N1 catback and Front pipe and was wondering in anyone knew of some shops around the San Jose area that they have used and do a good job.

Don't mean to thread jack but I'm also looking for a shop. I had some coilovers installed this weekend and in desperate need of an alignment. Preferably somewhere local in San Francisco or Daly City because my car jerks pretty hard to the left if I'm going over 25mph

Nice, what coils did you get?
Don't know any alignment shops in your area, but if you're willing to go to Hayward or Fremont check out Motorsport Techniques or Auto RND.

Bro just barrow some jacks and a couple of required tools and do it yourself. it'll be much more rewarding in the end. I thought about going to a shop to install my catback but ended up doing it myself (was my first ever install as well).

i suggest to corner balancing as well.

biggest mistake for most coilover users is forgetting to corner balance the car
