Edited for accuracy. I won't be modding the 35 past an exhaust/intake and maybe a tune. I am fed up with this ****.
Lessons learned from owning a tuner car:
-Do **** yourself
or
-Don't own a tuner car

Even if you do it all yourself, you're going to run up against situations you can't fix with a jack and a wrench and then it'll sit in some speed shop's garage for 2 months because they don't make money (proportionally) off your special snowflake car either. Speed shops make money off of exhaust installs, tunes etc. They don't make money banging around inside your engine bay for 10 hours charging you labor only while they try to figure out why on earth they can't get your new injectors to play nice with your fuel pump and "oh hey lol no one has ever done this before" so better get on the phone with a few other shops so we can all try to figure out how to get this thing to run without buckling the hood.

If I sound bitter it's because I am.
