MRT's Shop in Michigan

Jon_Purdy · February 8th, 2008, 01:51 AM

Hello everyone. I'm trying to find a reputable shop near my home here in Michigan to install a set of Kooks Long Tubes and Catted H-Pipe. Has anyone out there had their car worked on by the guys at the MRT shop in Michigan? If so, what sort of rating would you give them?

just a thought but try Googleing them and look through some of the links, they will give you something about the company. Try finding the links to forums they usually give you the best results on there reputation

All the quotes I've received from MRT have been outrageous! I vote for Livernois!

Check out Pauls High Performance in Jackson. Paul's High Performance Website doesn't show much but his shop is pretty impressive if you can stop by. Last time I was there he had 5 new GT500's on top of the rest of the mustangs and a lightning.

I emailed Paul's HP before for a quote, and never heard back. I've heard he does good work, but your post makes me think he's a little TOO busy.

He's 30 miles west of my work though... not too far.

phone calls are always a better way to talk to anyone. in person is even better, but at 30 miles and 5 bucks a gallon i would call first.

tribaltek · June 26th, 2008, 05:14 PM

Well, during the week I'm in a situation where I am not available by phone, but email isn't an issue. I understand calls are immediate and emails can be ignored, but regardless, ignoring customers is not a good way to do business.

Hell, I've never called RADMustangs and I've spent plenty there!

much easier to reach a small vendor via email i would think. idk i'm not one of them and don't know how much work there is put into it all. i would agree with you that you would think someones job would be to answer emails though. many people don't answer emails i've noticed though. i've emailed a few buisnesses and sometimes i'll get a reply on the second one, seldom on the first.

I would stop by and check it out. It would be worth the gas.

I was recently quoted $650.00 for a delete plate and electric water pump install. Needless to say I told them I was being gouged and will take my business elsewhere.

Was that with or without parts? Just labor or no?
