Default Bay Area turbo installers?

Anyone know of any good shops that can install a turbo correctly? I don't want to go to just any shop. I'd like to go to a good reputable shop. Helping with the dyno tuning would be a plus!

I've done a couple installs myself, if you decide to do the install yourself, I'd help you out.

If your not going to do it yourself, your better off paying a member from honda-tech help you do it. This way you don't pay what shops charge and you get to learn along the way. Also knowing exactly what is done to the car and how it was done, will save you alot of time diagnosing any future problems

i do make log style mild steel manifolds but i prefer to purcahse my manifolds from tinker219 .. considering they're tig welded instead of migged like mine his have a lot longer durability even though i have not had a problem with my manifold yet . <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by I Need Money. &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Project dc2 do you make your own manifolds?

Hey project dc-2

im from the bay and was wondering how much would install be for..

92-95 greddy kit
JohnnyRaceCar 5' Intercooler
Mendrel IC piping
blitz DD timer
gauges (oil pressure and A/F probably)

Do you recommend I run the blue box for a while (just going to keep boost at stock) or should I go with the 96-00 Greddy kit with the Emanage?

let me know, thanks

if you'r gonna keep it at stock boost he greddy blue box is fine. is it a brand new greddy kit or used ? are you sure you have all of the parts. and does the greddy kit have piping?? i usually charge 150 to make downpipes, 550 for the whole install, ( labor only) let me know what you got ( complete kit etcc. hose connectors yada yada) and ill let you know what you need to buy etcc. ill isntall all you h ave there plus make piping (* if you alrady have some existing greddy pipes) for 400$ for everything you have listed plus make brackets or mount your intercooler and do the piping conversion. let me know PM me

The kit I plan to get should have all necessary piping since it's off a car that's the same generation as mines. Kit is used, and everything should be complete. I still can't pm you because I'm still a trial member. WEAKK

150 for the same downpipe as alex's and 10 extra for the o2 snesor. the downpipe i had to make for alex's had to ratain the the greddy stock flange becasue its impossible to get any other flange in there. i tried to get a 2.5 inch flange in there but no can do. tried to shave it and everything.

intercooler piping for the spearco intercooler. i take it you have existing greddy piping correct? 120$ labor plus parts. ( abou 35$ in piping, youll need 2 reducers most likley 17.50 each, plus one 2 - 2 inch straights ( 6$ each ) and one 2.25 ( 6 dolla) from ATP turbo, pipng i think i may have some)
