DD,Mustang,Dynojet,Land&Sea.

More then a few good shops along with two new ones opening within the next few months.

When you say "we all" did that include Terry Griffin who has the name Griffin Motorwerke licenced for his business of performance tuning cars and doing service work in the Bay area for 25 years?

That was all I was asking- I'm sure that if he's OK with it you're fine, but I could see this leading to a lot of confusion, both are called Griffin, and seriously who doesn't shorten the name of a shop when they talk about this kind of stuff, how would anyone that does not know both businesses know any distinction? and besides, apart from dyno tuning- what do you do that his shop doesn't?

If you guys "agreed" on these points without consulting him, you shouldn't be surprised to see a letter from a lawyer.

Thanks for the heads up Pete. Like I said, it is not our intention to step on anyone's toes and we will deal with the situation as necessary.

Thanks

I think you should have gone with a Liger:

"It's pretty much my favorite animal. It's like a lion and a tiger mixed... bred for its skills in magic."

Hey guys... we currently don't have a logo and I know atleast some of you are good with that sort of thing. If anyone has a good idea for a logo and a bit of extra time, please submit it to ed@eqtuning.com and if your logo is chosen, you will be rewarded .

Thanks
