Personally, i'm not a fan of the waterfalls and sinks they put in the cars, but it is kinda cool to see the stereo work they do. I prefer Overhaulin. they do everything right on that show and its funny to see them trick the person who's car is gettin redone.
I have watched the show a lot and I know they fix all exlectrical problems and every once in a while they show some minor motor work such as fixing valve cover leaks and the like. I think they just do a basic tuneup to make them run a little better. They probably use oil aditives so they don't smoke durring the test trive. lol
