shops especially in the NYC area who are relatively busy with work or feel like you are just in the market looking and not really serious they don't honestly bother. Like TurboTrix in Jersey. They do top notch work especially on EVO's and if some honda guy calls they don't take em seriously which is not good for business since its not a professional approach but since they have weeks upon weeks of wait time for a car to come, they really don't care if they loose some business.

I can see ur point. I'm calling up shops now to see how much the labor is going to be. Not rich far from it. Priced out the engine and tranny already just me some quotes. Trying to save the money to do everything in one shot and also account for the little things that come up. NO credit strange CA$H for me. Shops will love that. And to answer another question RS Eclipse red custom turbo on an A/T. Had major body work done to it. This was a while back.
