Lots of email requesting what happened? Here it is.

This is just my bad experience with this company. I've used Shawn for tuning about two or three times. The first time I went to him the shop was hosting a dyno day, and we were told (by Shawn) that we would go first because we were coming from San Diego. Well, that did not happen. We got there at 0800 and didnÂ’t leave the shop until 1500. Fine, I let that one go.
This last time we made appointments for 2 cars. My buddy and I took our cars up to him to get tuned, and just like the 1st time, we were there by 0800 as we were told to do by Shawn. We were driving up from San Diego, which is about an 1 1/2 to 2 hour drive. When we arrived for our appointment, Shawn was not around. We contacted him to tell him we already there. He said he will be there in 30 min. Ok, we waited. Then he calls back and says to go and eat breakfast; he is still running late. In the end he doesnÂ’t end up showing up till 0945. After breakfast we called him to tell him we are waiting outside. He then proceeded to tell us Superior Automotive is tuning some cars before us. Two cars to be exact; the first one took 1 1/2 hours to tune, and the second one took 2 hours. We ended up going to lunch, and when we returned at about 1300 Shawn acts as though it was our fault we took long. I told my buddy to go first because he just got parts put on his car, and I was just there just to make sure my air/fuel was ok. It took him 1 hour to get one of our cars on the dyno, and he spent most of his time on his cell phone. The guys from Superior were even telling us that he b/s too much. Finally, he gets one of our cars done.
But, before all this (when we made our appointments), Shawn mentioned he would hook us up on the price, since we were returning customers and we have him and his company on our website. Superior Automotive has a sign that says $60 or $75 dollars for 2 pulls and air/fuel readout. This guy didnÂ’t even do anything to my buddy's car - no changes, nothing. All Shawn said was the car was running good - that was it. Then he tells my buddy that it will be $150 dollars!! My buddy says, "What? You didnÂ’t do anything and what about the sign that say $60-$75 for 2 pulls?" Shawn says ok and gets 80 dollars from my buddy 'cause my buddy is too nice and didnÂ’t want to wait for change. Ok, I head out to get my car, because it was my turn (remember, we made 2 appointments for 8AM). HA, NOT! Shawn says he has OTHER appointments to do and, I would be AFTER them. At that point, after waiting all day (when I should have been taken care of by 8AM) and after the pricing stunt Shawn pulled on my buddy (trying to charge $150, when the sign says $60-$75 for 2 pulls),I just left and will never return.

I have recommended Shawn in the past because I have been happy with his quality of work. But, recently his level of customer service has been EXTREMELY poor (comes across as an "I don't give a F**K" attitude). In my opinion, quality of work and quality of service go hand-in-hand. BIG disappointment, and neither I nor my buddy will ever use him again.
