SA SHOP?

I live in San Antonio TX and am looking to have some mods done to my Stang here pretty quick. I am looking for a good reliable shop with reasonable prices. I was talking to Mustang Extreme on mainland, but it seems they are not located there anymore. I had also talked to Roy with Alamo Performance who had some pretty good things to say, but I would like to have a few more options (Mustang specialty shops) Any info would be greatly appreciated.

mustang extreme i think is going out of business. my neigbor worked/owned the shop for the longest. they were pretty expensive to start w/. have you tried the Texas Hod Rod Store off 35 north. they do some pretty good work.

Good Shops:
HotRod Store - HotRodStoreTX
PSI - PSI (Sponsor/10% LSS stickers discount)

People to get work done with on the boards:
Toni - Send a PM to 4.6coupe
Brian - B's Performance
Larry - Send a PM to 12second5.0

There is a few other people/shops, but these I have used and had good experiences with.

I've always heard bad things about Mustang extreme.

Thanks for the info guys. I'm not looking to get anything to serious done right now. I have and SLP loudmouth catback and some FRPP 4.10's to be installed. SLP will probably go in first......cheaper! Minor work, but I have had bad experiences with so called "exhaust techs" from Napa none the less so I want to make sure I find a good place especailly for the gears!!!

Just talked to Benny from the Hot Rod shop. Nice guy and gave me some pretty good prices too. 100$ to install my LM catback, and 250$ for my gears! Thanks again ya'll....

rent a sawzall ($15) from Home Depot, buy a few blades ($5), and do the catback yourself. it's pretty easy.

w3rd, maybe you could convince some of these guys to do another mod day, but this time with a sawzall or compressor and cutoff wheel.

If someone has an air compressor I have the air tools & cutting wheels.
