Need a mod shop near pasadena ca

Hi everyone. I am looking for a shop near 91780. I found Steve's performance mods and considering there stage 2 for my 2004 mcs with 68k on it. Has anyone purchased this from them and how was the experience?

In the mean time I am looking to buy a short shifter and rear sway bar. If any of you is selling used items let me know. I will have the shop install these when I do the stage 2 considering it will be easier the exhaust system will be apart

Steve's Auto Clinic -- great prices and good/honest service. It can be a little chaotic there sometimes, but they're my #1 go to place in LA area right now.

Motoring Magic is also good, but Thousand Oaks is a lot farther from Pasadena.

MiniCorsa is another option I've heard good things about. On the positive side, they post their prices for many things on their website, which is great. On the negative side, when I checked on getting some major work done, they were more expensive than the two options above. Do a search though -- others appear to have had good experiences here.

FYI, I'm planning to get my Helix short shift adapter removed this weekend. While I like the shortness of the throws, having the shifter box cover removed (required for it to fit) means the center console and shift boot area get pretty hot after driving for 30 min plus.... I'm a little worried about durability of the shift cables and boot. If you're interested, PM me (I'll probably put it up for sale in the marketplace eventually).
