In a perfect world, it would be nice to think that every shop, or individual that does work for that matter, should answer every phone call/pm/email/etc in a quick and courtious manner, all free of charge. The fact of the matter is this- most, if not ALL of us (and I use the term "us" to describe the automotive community) have lives and responsibiities outside of coming up with a fix for the latest and greatest problem that has come down the pike. Also, people DO get rubbed the wrong way when you spend a considerable amount of time answering questions, responding to phone messages, answering emails...with the "thought" that work will be done in the future, just to have that all go by the wayside and the job is taken elsewhere. It sucks, but unfortunately...that's the way it goes. It happens to me, to Turbo50, to Shaun and Drew at AED, Nexgen, Newtech, etc. We all deal with it. I've had it personally happen to me no fewer than 3 times in the past 2 weeks. I won't even begin to mention folks you do work for in advance to help them out, tow cars for them, do favors for "friends" who turn out to be folks who are actually just looking to make a come-up, etc. You end up writing people off...and they wonder why you won't answer phone calls? [Roll Eyes]

Then you have these SAME people call you, text you, want to ask questions on why "x,y, and z" aren't working right on their car...yet still can't grasp the concept that they haven't spent a dime for the info they've recieved and do not intend to. If they want to post up in Tech with their questions, great! They will get the answers they need from the vast resource of the board. I truly believe it is at a shop's disadvantage to post on a board, of any kind, as a individual due to the lines not being clear as to what is personal help and what is quantified as "shop" help. Same can be said for those who do work on the side, as it is basically "expected" due to being a member here. That's ok though, it's the way it is. [Cool]

In the end...
...you can please all the people some of the time..
...some of the people all the time...
...but you will never please all the people all the time... [Wink]

i couldn't have agreed more [patriot] .
btw, i had my car put together by johnb and tuned by shaun at AED and both were good experiences.

The OP is not SpecFab aka Virgil. I've known Reggie for a long time now, and he's known my Cobra even longer. No need to start drama by suggesting that.

not trying to start drama just saking a question
This is why using one of these ---> ? <--- would have made your post clear... this is what we call in English a "question mark"

I have to agree with Johnb, it doesn't do any good to post unprofessional comments if you work at a shop which members use or may use in the future. A shop like A.E.D. handles themselves professionally even on a private forum like this, look at some of the other comments coming from the other type of shops. For anyone buying a car or looking to get work done, be sure to read some of the posts made by the people selling or offering their services. I've seen a lot of "craigslist gems" that there owners don't realize are in pics and vids street racing on the different forums.

ive seen that car up close...talk about a rat's nest of wiring job. paint is decent from maybe 15 feet away. cheap 5 lug conversion if i remember correctly. the car just screams hacked. looks like a used parts build. i wont call it junk, but i wont disagree if the majority did. i also wouldnt be surprised if most quality shops turned this car away. i for one wouldnt want any association with it.

i am a REPEAT customer of shaun and AED's and am very impressed with their work.

my first interaction with that shop went like this: took my block to him on saturday. sunday my custom rotating assembly and cam was spec'd out. monday afternoon: half my parts were ordered. by tuesday, all of them were ordered. three weeks later, my machine work was done, a week after that my shortblock was assembled.

my motor was on the dyno literally 3 weeks after the last part showed up. aed doesnt own an engine dyno, but i "the customer" wanted it dyno'd. shaun closed down HIS shop down to dyno the motor he built me for FREE across town. as expected, the motor made phenomenal power for the parts that shaun chose. that is how legit he is and that is just a fraction of the amazing customer service he provides. i have since had him tune my late model mustang that my wife drives for a beater. that car runs excellent as well.

i didnt read all the pages in this crap thread, but when someone spends 4 weeks choosing a tuner for a SLIGHTLY modified motor, he might as well go f-kk himself because really he isnt serious about making shit happen.

go check out the cars at AED, the majority are hardly junk and they definitely don't cater to the poor man's demographic. that is what shops like tps are there for.

if i campaign my car next year in the mustang madness class in PSCA, i will gladly rep AED.

Obviously u should have invested the time to read the entire thread so u could have been more informed regarding the entire situation...for your information both My car and Albert's car were very expensive to put together and highly modified...I believe you should read everything and know at least know my car and combo before you past judgment like u did...You are entitled to your own opinion, but I believe your basing it on inaccurate information...At the end of the day it was a misunderstanding on when my car was originally tuned...I just wished I experienced the same AED experience as you, I am glad your happy and satisfied...And regardless how much my car is worth or how much i spend at AED I should not be treated differently or with disrespect!...
