Looking for a good auto shop in San Diego

I am planning to have my crank pulley and exhaust changed. Anyone know any good shops in San Diego area for that? Thanks!

What part of San Diego are you in. I know a couple of good shops up in the N County area.

Infinite Motion in San Marcos did my turbo install at a fair price. Owner of the shop owns an FR-S as well.

Now you have me confused. I was talking about the OP needing pulley/exhaust installed. A Turbo install is definitely not something my shop would take liability for installing... LoL

I can help as well if you need. Not certified, but I have done plenty of friends cars with odd jobs. Been doing this since I was 16 (31 now). Supercharger swaps, brakes, exhaust, clutch swaps, you name it, I've pretty much done it.
