Default A little advice needed in NOVA

Hey guys I am currently having a problem with my car, its a 1990 nissan 240sx with a sr20det redtop swap, its got all the regular uprades (FMIC, fuel pump, MBC, SAFC II, etc. Its been driving fine for a while now but on my way home the car started to bog heavily when shifting through the gears. It would eventually calm down and drive alright as I got to cruising speed in 3rd or 4th but I didnt put it past 3000rpm's. Ive had problems with my tps before but that was replaced and seemed to fix the problem. Basically I need a shop that I can trust to diagnose and fix this new problem, I originally took my car to RedShift, and then to Total Auto after that, now Im not really sure where to take it. Ive read vendor reviews but I would like to hear from some 240 people that have experience with shops. I know this should probably be in the tech section but I need to hear from some local people about local shops. Thanks in advance. -John

Did you check if there were any error codes? Or are you just looking to pay someone else to fix it?

Honestly, I really dont have any time to do any work on the car myself. Even If I were to check and find a code I woudnt have time to try and fix it, Im too busy with work and school at this point. So yeah I am looking for someone to fix it. -John

Take it to VIP where the old Vertex used to be. My good old friend of mine is part owner of it and he's a Nissan junky.
