Default A tribute to Northern Virginia

Got quoted $350 for cam install in NC

Lowest I got in NoVA was a flat grand, prices went even higher to $1500

Found out I can get a supercharger installed in NC for $400

NoVA shops will want thousands

Way to go price gougers , go die in a hole you POS.

Not to mention some idiot in a suit will take his Benz to ASC and pay any amount of money just so they can get that sticker on the front of their grille. 500 dollars for an oil change? Hah! Tis' peasant change.
