The very first alignment is one of the most important services a performance vehicle will receive. Fresh from the factory, every suspension angle plays a role in how the car accelerates, corners, brakes, and wears its tires. Precision isn’t just about keeping the steering wheel straight. It’s about making sure the chassis performs exactly as Audi engineered it to.

Adam’s stunning 2026 Audi RS3 () came to Dale’s Auto Service for its first-ever four-wheel alignment, and we made sure every measurement was dialed in with the accuracy a car like this deserves. Whether it’s a daily commute, spirited mountain drives, or future performance upgrades, starting with the correct geometry builds the foundation for everything that follows.

We’re excited to see what Adam has planned for this incredible machine. Something tells us this is only the beginning.

At Dale’s Auto Service, we specialize in precision alignments for everything from factory-fresh performance cars to heavily modified builds, track cars, lifted trucks, EVs, and daily drivers. No matter the platform, proper suspension geometry makes all the difference.

The all-electric 2024 GMC HUMMER EV 3X isn’t just another SUV, it’s a 9,000+ lb super truck engineered with independent air suspension, four-wheel steering, CrabWalk capability, and massive 35-inch tires. With a suspension system this advanced, wheel alignment isn’t simply about keeping the steering wheel straight. It’s about maintaining the precise suspension geometry that GM engineered from the factory.

This HUMMER EV came into Dale’s Auto Service for a precision 4-wheel alignment, ensuring every suspension angle was returned to specification.

🟢 Precision 4-Wheel Alignment
🟢 Steering Wheel Centered
🟢 Camber, Caster & Toe Adjusted to Factory Specifications
🟢 Suspension Geometry Verified

Unlike many conventional vehicles, the HUMMER EV’s suspension geometry changes throughout its different ride heights. Factory specifications are designed around specific suspension positions to maximize tire contact, stability, regenerative braking performance, steering response, and tire life. Even minor deviations in toe or camber can quickly wear expensive EV tires while affecting handling and overall efficiency.

Our alignment equipment allows us to accurately measure every angle and restore the vehicle’s geometry exactly where it belongs, helping preserve the performance, comfort, and confidence this platform was designed to deliver.

Whether you drive an EV, lifted truck, luxury vehicle, performance car, or your daily commuter, proper wheel alignment is one of the most important services you can invest in for safety, tire longevity, and overall driving performance.

Dale’s Auto Service has been proudly serving the Lower Mainland since 1989, specializing in precision wheel alignments, diagnostics, suspension repairs, performance vehicles, EV & Hybrid service, off-road builds, Sprinters, European vehicles, and everything in between.

This 2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty Lariat made the trip all the way from Oregon to Dale’s Auto Service for emissions system repairs and performance upgrades. When owners are willing to cross the border for quality workmanship, it speaks volumes about the service and expertise they’re looking for.

Our technicians performed a complete emissions service and exhaust upgrade package to get this Power Stroke running at its best.

🟢 Installed 4” Aluminized Downpipe-Back Exhaust System
🟢 Installed New Exhaust Tip
🟢 Installed EGR Service Kit
🟢 Replaced MAP Sensor
🟢 Custom Tune Calibration

The upgraded 4-inch exhaust system improves exhaust flow and helps reduce restriction, while the EGR service restores proper exhaust gas recirculation function. Replacing the MAP sensor ensures accurate engine management data, and the custom tune ties everything together for improved drivability, throttle response, and overall performance.

It’s always an honor when customers travel long distances for our expertise. This Oregon-based Super Duty left our shop with a refreshed emissions system, upgraded exhaust, and a custom tune designed to maximize performance and reliability.

When it comes to diesel diagnostics, emissions repairs, performance upgrades, alignments, fleet maintenance, and custom builds, Dale’s Auto Service has the experience and equipment to get the job done right.

Back in February 2025, this 2010 Subaru Impreza WRX STI came through the shop for a serious heart transplant. We equipped it with an Outfront Motorsports Closed Deck EJ257 V3 Ultra Complete Long Block built to handle big power and reliability under boost. To make sure all that power made it to the pavement, we also installed an XLC 9” Twin Sprung Ceramic Clutch capable of holding the abuse that comes with high-horsepower AWD launches.

This week the STI returned for the final chapter. After heading over to Stratified for a power tune and dyno session, the results spoke for themselves.

📈 Dyno Results:
🔥 549 WHP
🔥 465 FT-LB Torque
🔥 Shell 93 Octane Fuel

🟢 Outfront Closed Deck EJ257 V3 Ultra Complete Long Block
🟢 XLC 9” Twin Sprung Ceramic Clutch
🟢 Performance Inspection & Setup
🟢 Dyno Calibration & Power Tune at Stratified
🟢 Final Power Verification

The result is a brutally fast street-driven STI putting down nearly 550 wheel horsepower on pump gas. The closed deck block provides the strength needed for elevated boost levels, while the twin-disc ceramic clutch delivers the holding capacity required to transfer every bit of power efficiently. This is the kind of combination that transforms an already legendary platform into something truly serious.

At Dale’s Auto Service, we specialize in performance builds, motorsport applications, alignments, diagnostics, fleet service, JDM vehicles, and custom performance solutions. Whether you’re building a reliable daily driver or chasing dyno numbers, we have the experience and equipment to get the job done right.
