Default Where to go for turbo install.

First off I'm in the Milwaukee WI area and no one in my area at least to my knowledge wants to have anything to do with a Scion tC and a turbo tune/install. Everyone is either domestic or HONDA. Man, it's really starting to make me mad that no one can help me or even reffer me to someone. My friend can do the install but he knows very little if anything about tuning the kit, he's running the t-netics on his tC. I havn't bought the kit yet, still undecided on Greddy, ZPI, or turbonetics. There's no point in dumping my TRd S/C just yet untill I can find someone with confedence in a good tune with the turbo install. Can someone, anyone inform me of a place in Chicago or in a 200-300 mile radius that can do this for me. I'll drive further if I really have to. I just don't want to have the problems so many people are having with stalling etc, because of an untuned turbo. Thanks a lot, I'm at the end of my rope.

I honestly wouldn't mind. The stage 1 sounds real nice. I'm still a little shocked by just how much the turbo tc's have on the s/c tc's in the 0-60 and 1/4 mile. My friend is boosting less than me and is pulling on me like I pull on civics.

Well you would have no worries with a Stage 1 under the hood.. You wont just be pulling on him you will be blowing him by... If you are serious about the kit, install and tune, act now and give them a call because they are booking up fast...

Anyone think I should just have them swap the pistons and tune it for something like 12psi? Should just make the trip worth while and do it all.

Rods? Sounds like a spring project. Need to save the money to get this done with out a worry. I wonder if they'll cut me a break with all the money I might blow on them.
