Report
They did a complete engine replacement but wired things incorrectly for the purge valve. For 2 years I had on again off again issues and a check engine light for EVAP issues they couldn't resolve and chalked up to a small leak. I finally took it elsewhere and come to find they connected the purge valve to the wrong port then ran a new wire to piggyback power from other systems to force it to work. The new power line caused the valve to stay permanently open when engine was on, causing the "leak". They refuse to own up to the problems they caused and the additional repairs this forced on me.

Report
I had an alignment performed on my Porsche 911 here recently and I couldn't be happier. Sam's was happy to align the car to my requested specifications and it drives phenomenally. The wheel is dead on the center and the car handles great. Sam and his crew were efficient, priced well, and did the job correctly.
