Default Looking for local performance shop that can....

Basically I am getting my turbo project back up and running. But as I do that I want to get some of the problems I was having fixed. One problem being the constant initial blowing of smoke. Anyone who was at the BBQ last year can tell you what I mean. I want to start eliminating parts to see what the real cause was.

First step is getting the Turbo tested. So I need a shop that can do turbo compression testing. This will let me know if the oil was blow by cause by bad seals even though I replaced them.

The second step is finding an exhaust shop that can help tweak my exhaust and make it look good. The welding job from the last place sucked and I need to have 2 o2 sensors hooked up not one. So I want to get a Hi-Flow Cat with O2s on it. I also need to have a waste gate dump pipe designed and fitted so that I don't hear that nasty whoooosh sound every time I hit full boost.

Third, I have a shop to do this, but I wanted to know about how much it costs to replace the Clutch and Flywheel in the 04-07 xB. Can't have boost if I don't have something to hold it.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

not "running" the ZPI kit. It is off. I am planning on putting back on a tweaked remote mount turbo kit once it is how I like it yes.
