Default Anybody know a shop that handles turbos in the San Francisco area?

Okay, before I get a list of every shop around, let me tell you what happened...

the weld on my oil pan broke, and was leaking oil, so I took the oil pan out and had it welded again. But on the process of installing it all back, one of the bolts broke in the flange that comes out of the turbo that connects to the hose that goes to the oil pan. Now it's leaking oil out of that, I can't get the fu***ng bolt out without getting the turbo out (and even w/ the turbo out, I'm assuming it'd be a bitch to come out).

Okay now that you know the story, I'm looking for some shop that would be able to get the turbo out, take the bolt out, put a new one in and make the leak disappear.

thanks,

PS: MachIII, and Golden Auto Muffler Shop already said they won't do it...

Try Fell St. Auto. 415-252-8720. He did some work on a turbo integra a while back. Ask for Marvin.
