    There is a sticky on the top of this page with all the recommended shops in the area.
    I personally haven't found or been to a better shop than Euro-Tech Motors in Culver City but there are definitely a few others around that are more than competent enough to take care of you.

    Have you actually visited them or got something installed from them?

    They quote me $1800 for clutch job (including parts)

    And quote me the same price for a k03 swap only....

    I know they're legit but only ballers can afford them =P

    02QuattroA4,

    I bought the Stage 1 Ra4 clutch kit from ECS(free shipping) and my mechanic(located in Eagle Rock) charged me $650 for the install

    He don't specialized in Audi but his been doing stuff with my car and other Audi cars as well. My clutch is still going smooth, more than a year now.

    Depending on what clutch you get, it can be $600-1000 just for the clutch. Labor is usually around $1000. Do not mess around or cheap out on things like this...I didn't and I still had to go through three clutches in less than two years due to poor QC from a supposedly reputable clutch company.

    it may seem expensive ... but for this type of car you will find that very seldom will you find very cheap labor or parts .....

    talk to Matt or Riccardo over at Raven I am sure they can take care of you.

    Dude, hit up Raven and they will take care of you. Aside from Wicked, there is no other shop that has the experience that these guys do. All the rest of these guys wish they had the expertise.

    There is a reason only Wicked and Raven have had cars featured in Eurotuner GP ;)

    I see, I mean I would actually let them fix my car if I have that much money..they're literally less than 20 mins where I live.

    To the OP,

    have you decided where to go yet or call any of the given shops ??

    I have been to Wicked Motorsports in Van Nuys and highly recommend them. I have had lots of work done there and Mike does an awesome job.
