But I am in the New Hampshire area alot visiting my girlfriend. So a shop in the New England area would be great.

It took about 13 hours. My machanic gave me a discount this one time because I knew him from when I had my S2000. But install cost me 650.00. With the costom pexie glass and blowoff needed to be welded. Total was 750.00

I don't think so. I'd love to go but thats kind of a long trip for me. On a seperate note there is a rotary show here in portsmoth RI. Has anyone heard about it?

Yes, Thats the shop I went to. Great shop! Friends of mine. I got the kit from another friend here in RI. Carlos who owns hyper imports in Central Falls. I paid 3200.00 for the kit shipped.
