    Very, though it definitely helps if you're willing to do some work to dig up answers on your own. What sort of problem are you having?

    Mso can be very helpful, lots of knowledgeable folks around even if they're no longer driving speeds they still contribute to the platform.

    Like vanquish said look around and search, if you don't find the information ask and the community will get you pointed in the right direction.

    If you go to https://www.cobbtuning.com/dealers and put in Los Angeles, make sure you check mazdaspeed call the shops they may be able to help. Best way I can see to find a shop for you while I'm not in the state or country.

    Edit: while I was looking I saw some shops that aren't just tuners you so a couple of them is bound to do engines

    Nope, I am in Norther California. I do not know LA. However, If he ever takes his car 6 hours north I would be more than willing to lend a hand.

    If you still need someone, let me know. There WAS someone a lot of members in SoCal were going to. Overspeed motorsports ran by Jordan.

    There is a new guy in east LA that has been helping a lot of dudes i know with work being done and they have recommended him numerous times.

    You can find the guy on instagram:

    @javiautorepair he mostly works on speeds, he sources his enginces and shit from other vendors like jordan.
