Default LA PUENTE! L&T Japanese Auto?? Anyone know them??

I just picked up my Laskey block from mike and visited Bisimoto while out there. Bisi referred me to L & T Japanese Auto for any work for my S2000, including the install of the block and Full Race turbo kit

Owner's name is Albert, nice guy, his wife, Amy- runs the office.
They have 2 integras (DC4) with over 800+ whp.
Another RHD DC5 integra that USED TO BE LHD with a K20 swap. changed everything from the radiator to the firewall to the dash/center console. not quite finished, but runs good, clean installs so far...

He says he's worked with many DC5 integra/RSX's with turbos. But all the S2000 he's worked on were N/A.

I'm still shopping for a shop to install my FR kit for me. He's familiar with the Full Race kit as one of the 800+ integra has a FR kit on it.

ANYONE HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH THIS SHOP? Good or bad please post!


Thanks!
Paul


Edit: Tried the search function for "L & T Japanese Auto" to no avail.

Ive recently heard about them a few weeks ago. They do a lot of detailed work, and theres this one cat there, but he can troubleshoot like no other. I talked to them over the phone. Pretty knowledgeable, check it out.
