Default TORONTO: shop for clutch install?

I've called a few places and they're saying it takes 8-10 hours to install a clutch. Everyone here says it's more like 4. Grr. Can anyone suggest a good shop in the GTA that won't rip me off? My stock clutch is gone and i wanna install the JWT setup (perhaps minus the flywheel - what do you think?).

4-5 max. Some can do it in about 3 hours if they know what they're doing...

Does anyone know these guys:
http://www.magnusmotorsports.com/
They seem to be pretty big in Toronto. ???? Do they work on the G35/350Z plateform?

I heard that Magnus is very good in the "FI" department. I'm going to talk to them in the spring when I pull my Z out. Going to see if they have tuned a Vortech Z. As for other performance work I'm not sure. I'm guess that if they are good at FI then a clutch would be easy.

I store the car for the winter, so I figures that I will wait until the spring to dyno, and get it tuned. This way it will have fresh oil, and new plug before I go. I didn't really have time to mess around near the end of the year; to busy with work.

i'm so tempted to do that too, but my battery's disconnected, so I didn't bother. plus it's kinda dusty, so i'd have to clean it first before i let it out in the wild :P
