As you know, my car goes to Erin Mills Acura for the regular work and for warranty stuff. I had some work that was atypical, so Ive been looking for a shop to do it for me.
I found Jordan Marrison from Vertex Fabworx in Newmarket. Ive been seeing Jordan at the track for a couple years and Ive grown to trust his judgement. He told me about his new shop and that he would check with Brock, his business partner, if they were able to do it. No problem he said.
So I dropped the car off and Jordan drove me to the GO Station (actually the fastest way to and from Newmarket) and two days later I picked it up.
I had them install my 3qt accusump in the trunk and my AEM UEGO Wideband in the area of the ashtray. Im very happy with both installs.
The Accusump is sitting lower than most of the installs Ive seen, which is great because it allows me to put my roof back there still (I have a CF engine cover). I provided Vertex with all of the parts including the accusump, the hoses, the fittings, the bulkhead union, the valve, a different switch for the cabin, and the mounting brackets.
The AEM went cleanly in the area of the ashtray. Brock dremmeled the area out to make it fit so that with the door closed, there is no evidence that it is there. Its very clean.
Beyond what I needed them to do, I bought tires from a PRIMER. He dropped them off to Vertex and Jordan took them down the street to get them mounted. They also looked at my oil and decided to do a full change, so they went to Acura to get a filter. Without them doing that, Id have had to do both on my own time late in the week.
Im extremely happy.
Vertex does full cages and race cars, but will also do small jobs like mine. Id bring my car back to them in a second for non-dealer type of work.
