Default Any shops offer??

This may be a VERY stupid question, but do any shops on the East Coast offer Financing on Turbo kit installs? I have about 4k available as a deposit, but wanted to see if the rest of the project could be taken care of through financing with the shop...

Paranormal - Thanks for taking time away from reading the Very Ridiculous Techs thread to answer my question...I dont know about you but I've been hooked and read EACH post...Can anyone confirm this about MRC or say they've used them in this way? They are considered a very good shop correct? I think I've heard good things about them...

Thanks...I can see and understand why most or some people dont approve of financing FI...But my only other option right now would be to have everyone on the forum send me $1...LMAO! All kidding aside I want to see if they have anything available as I saved up a good 15k for an install...However, it looks as though Ill be popping the question in the next few months so that 15k is GONE and spent on a ring...Trying my best to get both the girl of my dreams and the car of my dreams...

I'm all for enjoying what you earn and modding your vehicle, but there are some expenses that I think people should hold off on. If 4k is all you have I suggest just saving it for an emergency or building a nice nest egg for retirement. I dont know about others but I only bought my car when I was financially comfortable and still have enough to pay all my bills for a while even if I lost my job.

spend 5k on a ring... 4k on "home upgrades" or "honeymoon destination" or whatever else for the house that she wants... and 5k on the car A ST setup will be cheaper(flamers you know this is true) or a supercharger also, if you wanna build the engine then do TT

If the you have good credit just apply for one of those credit card 0% interest for 18 months offers. This is assuming you could pay off what you borrow within the time allotted. I buy a lot of stuff like this even when I have the money to actually pay for it. You can't beat borrowing other people's money for free while you collect interest on your money. Hell now a days there are online savings accounts that are paying almost 5.5%/yr and you are not locked into anything so you can withdraw anytime you need it. Just before you are about to start paying interest on the money you borrowed pay it off or you can even transfer it to another 0% credit card offer.

^^^^This is the only way I would finance a turbo kit.
