Default Good Shop?

My mother's friends' son has a US Spec Type R. Apparently he has low compression in Cylinder 2. (Car only has 30K miles on it) It still runs, don't know many specifics, sounds maybe like a piston ring? Anyways, the car is currently at a dealer in Woodbridge and they want to charge a lot of money to find out what is going wrong with it.

Does anyone know of a good tuner shop that could find out the problem close to the Woodbridge area?

Thanks,
Jon Swift

APN fabrications. Alex the owner knows Honda's inside and out, and is very reasonable with his price w/ quality work.

PM him at LivinDreamsDC2. I know he's doing appt's only now, but he may beable to fit you in. I'd give you his shop number, but I keep forgetting to get it from him.

Yeah, he did some work for me, I'll have to check with him as I need him to look at something on my car too.

He told me he was doing appt's only, so I thought I'd try to get him to check out my car first haha.

--------
If anyone knows of anywhere else, let me know. I think they want to try to stay close to the Stafford/Woodbridge area, but I will see as I know Alex does great work.
