I was going with jannetty at first but their quote had over $1000 of extras just to pad their pockets. They lost a customer for life and are known con artists.
Build looks solid though

You’re entitled to your opinion, but you are on thin ice making a claim like that. It’s libelous. I have worked with other shops and I can honestly say Jennetty has far and away been the most open and transparent. Are there items on my build I could have passed on? Sure, but attention to detail and doing things the right way is hardly being “con artists”. I verified the parts were there and new when the car was dropped off. If you had an issue the Attorney General’s office is where you should be airing your concerns, not on an open forum with no evidence. He’s been in the same location since 1986. I’d gladly go back to Ted over the other shops I worked with in the past.

We should all be happy that we have choices in this country as others do not.

I have posted some facts and after sale support problems before on the forum. I don't want to keep repeating it so I won't. Some people don't want to hear honest reviews so I'll not argue here. And no I don't have to hire a lawyer or go to the AG's office. Some of us can let it go and move on but that doesn't mean it's not true.

I’m confused as to your point. You seem to be agreeing with the post you quoted so I looked into what you’ve posted to see if I missed something. You’ve only started 4 threads ever, and none have to do with JRE. You have recommended JRE a few times (yes I read most of your 1000+ posts) and you are one of the ones who talked me out of RPM after the wrecked Corvette incident. I did searches on here, on the various Corvette forums and even tried on a GTO/G8 one. I’m sure no shop has 100% positive reviews, but I did attempt due diligence. Plus after going there I felt confident in my choice, as did my buddy who trailed my car up and has numerous high horsepower fords.

it doesn't matter what anyone thinks, if your happy with the job they did, and the price point you paid then who gives a crap. Opinions are like assholes everyone has one.

I'm not wanting to go back and recount deceptive advertising and lack of support. For example I bought his dipstick. The stamping for full line is too faint to read (do I need to post a picture as proof?). I asked is it marked 1qt over OEM or what is the "full" level on too faint to read markings. He couldn't be bothered to answer that, but did spend the time to contact me (for no reason, no offer to make it right or anything) after I posted some negative comments in another thread. That took far more time than answering that or looking at a log one single time after buying a tune. So no, I stopped recommending him after that...insisting on parts not necessary etc.
I haven't heard of bad work so I don't feel compelled to jump in if someone chooses his shop. I will if someone has a bad experience like I did and basically is called a liar.
Edit: I was watching some youtube by LateModelEngines last week, and he had a car come in all hacked on. You had to find in the comments the link to what shop hacked it and it was RPM if I remember correctly. So I would NOT go there no matter what. Another commenter said it was likely done by an employee that has since been fired. Whatever, those are by far not the only negative reviews of them, RPM, as you say about other shops.

You can tone down the snarkyness. All I’m doing is trying to validate your comment. The “show proof” isn’t necessary, especially for something like a dipstick. No one called anyone a liar, all I did was warn someone over comments like “known con artists” in an open forum. It is absolutely libelous. I thanked you for the story on RPM then and am still grateful, so thank you again. Sorry you had a bad experience but I see two sides to every thread that starts up on here and plenty of satisfied customers. Thanks for taking the time to chime in and share on my thread.
