Thumbs up if anyone needs service or install for parts, f.i. kits, engines, etc ...

i found a guy with a shop in santa ana (right by the 5 / 55 / 405 fwy off Edinger Ave.) that knows his nissan **** like the back of his hand (no joke). he does quality work for a fraction of the prices i've seen anywhere.

ahh, and if anyone needs a vortech supercharger installed... he charges no more than $500.

anyway, PM me for his info.

Cheaper is not better and the old saying is you get what you pay for. I'd heavily recommend a respectable shop like GT Motorsports for install or service of that caliber.

personally I installed my own vortech kit in my friends garage w/o a lift and I say if I hade to do it for a buddy of mine and guarantee to not hit any problems I would charge a min. of $600 b/c I would defenelty need someone to help me and I would want to do it perfect the first time so it would take a day and a half.

cheaper isn't always better but there are some shops that can do service/installs for less and do just as good of a job.

for instance, kaaz quoted me ~350-400 for my lsd + 3.9fd install when a local shop referred by a friend charged me 200 flat. seems like reputable shops just charge more because they have their name out already.

12 hour install install would come to about 41/hour. Sounds right to me. I think its absurd shops charge 1300-1500 for it. What a joke. I had my vortech installed by a forum member and has been running strong since the day i put it on. After watching install, I think I could even do it myself (given that nothing goes wrong....)
