The shop I got my **** done at does GREAT work. If you search you can see pics. They did a B18C5/B16A2 hybrid swap into my EM1 civic. It’s so clean you could eat off it, and it works GREAT. And they do their work FAST, no bullshit waiting for 4 weeks or what not. They can do pretty much anything, swap, build the engine, turbo it, tranny work, bolt ons and what not.

The shop is called "B-Series" and is located in Ocean Side. Call "Scott" at 760-752-1898

The prices are very reasonable for their labor and the quality of work is top notch. In fact, in order to get my project done on time (as in the time he quoted me) he stayed for an entire weekend, working sat-sun when the shop is CLOSED, and this isnt some special hook up either. He will do that for anyone because he relies on repeat customers to stay a float, you know?

Remember to shop around. See who will give you the best prices. I can attest to the quality of Scott's work and how fast he operates, so give em a call at the very least.
