Default Turbo, piston and rod installers

Anybody know of any really good places in 757 to install a turbo kit? as well as install new pistons and rods? I talked to millenium and they quoted 1050 for the install of the turbo kit taking 3 days. Forgot about the piston and rod quote.

what kind of kit is it. does it require installing a headgasket. if so then thats probiably why the price and turn around time is so much. did you try talking to them. back when i had my 240 they quoted me like almost $7k for a sr20 swap and i was able to talk them into letting me source the parts and doing some of the swap myself and that cut the price a bit. you can also try one of the guys that post here that will do just as good of a job for less.

autosolution charges like 800 for a turbo kit install. try giving tuners edge a call, though im not sure if they are any cheaper.
