i want to give a shout out to the one man show at AA Motorworks, Adam Aquino (AdamBomb) for building my motor! My car suffered from low compression in cyl#4 (go figure lol) i spoke with him, and we ended up with this

New OEM case halves
Matching drop-in Manley pistons
Manley Rods
King bearings
08+ Nitrated Crank
ARP studs
KillerB pick up









Also addressed was were timing components, and heads with oem valve train.

Turn around time was great! this was important to me because this is my only car. i had a budget and Adam was pretty damn close to it (the heads needed additional work) but everything came out great! also last minute the clutch slave cylinder decided to not work and that was fixed. other things were done for preventative reasons as well like radiator and hoses, Adam even threw in a new throw-out bearing, and the clutch feels better than ever!

So Forward to today, the car has been on the road for a week and running amazing! im really pleased the way everything turned out and Adam was great, no surprise bills, not trying to push products or additional work that wasn't needed.Just great service. Thanks Adam

 

nice i was looking for someone to trust for a build, how much was the cost if you dont mind me asking?

 

He's a great guy! I'm glad to hear he has his own shop now!

 

Adam is a great community member and also shop owner! Wide knowledge base too.

 

was he the one that worked at edge?

 

IIRC yes.

 

Adam did a wheel bearing on my car and had me in and out of his shop in a couple of hours and works for great prices Highly recommended

 

Yes, AA is Adam that was at Edge. Sound's like the new spot's getting off to a great start. Something this community badly needs over there.

 

adam is great. he helped me when he was at EQ tuning when they just opened in hayward.. glad he moved on to bigger and better things.

 

Adam helped me with an FPR swap/fixing the stumble when he was over at Edge. Will probably stop by/check out the shop if anything comes up.

 

i'm upgrading mine soon with those same parts! manley pistons/rods, king bearings, ARP studs, killer B pickup, and much more

 

Wow, very unexpected Javier! Thank you for the kind words. You've seen a bit of the madness at the shop being a one man show, but I wouldn't trade it for anything! Once we were finally able to fire her up after the clutch hydro fiasco, I was pleasantly surprised how smooth the engine ran. After firing up newly built motors day in day out, it's always music to my ears when they sound and feel happy.

Thank you for your cooperation, patience and most of all the business! I'm looking forward to future endeavors!

 

+1 for Adam! He helped a buddy's Outback get back on the road. Nice guy.

 

Adams the man, he built/worked on my wrx at db/fw years back. He recently did the clutch+ more on my legacy and the headgasket/timing on my girlfriends 2.5i before he opened up shop. Always great work and customer service, glad he's getting more exposure since AA officially opened.

 

i recommend you call Adam and discuss what it is you want done and go from there, in my situation, we added parts here and there
you're welcome man! yeah, the video of the car idling got me smiling lol
