Turbo Installers: Price/places PA/NJ/DE?
Hi guys, I checked the northeast installers thread and non-mentioned turbo installs. I am hoping if anyone here knows of a reputable shop for a turbo kit installation on an 01 Max. I just moved to the eastern PA (20 minutes from Philly). NJ, mid-eastern PA, DE or a little father if the installer is good.
Also, how much did you guys pay to have your turbo's installed and a littel background of the amount of work done? I bought a kit that was custom built for another 01 maxima (intercooler included), so while it has all the parts and everything fits perfectly, it isn't one of the mainstream kits with full instructions which is why i
d like to find a guy with knowledge of turbos and can install it w/o requiring instructions to a specific kit.
What did you guys pay for your installs and anyone have it done around my area? Thanks!

I think most people on here install it themselves. You are looking at a very expensive install if you don't do it yourself, and also when something goes wrong (trust me stuff WILL go wrong) if you didn't do the install yourself you're not going to have a clue how to start to trouble shoot it, and you're going to spend more money and time towing your car to a shop again to troubleshoot and then fix the problem.
Anyhow in your area is Tilleys99 he knows his way around turbo maximas and owns a shop in PA somewhere.

his shop is in Annville PA, which is a little north of Harrisburg, MaxInProgress just got his done at some shop in philly and he said the work was real good, and he would recomend them to anyone. But I know personally that Rob Tilley does amazing work, and hes a great guy to boot oh yea, and a memeber here

you should do some background on turbo installs and common problems, that might happen with a turbo system, that way you can solve some the problems yourself. Read through the supercharged/turbocharged forum, you will find plenty of good reads.

Thanks....
Thanks for the suggestions guys. I would love to do the install myself, unfortunately I live in a condo complex (no garage), so I would have my car sitting out in the middle of the complex parking lot with the winter starting if I tried to install here. I also work full-time. For a project like this, I need to leave it with a pro I trust who can do the work with the resources and time I just don't.
I'm going to drop these bros a line and see what they can do for me. Thanks again!
P.S. I was thinking of asking Maximum Tuning if they installed turbos (they do SC's) as I was thinking of getting the Valve Body Mod/Torque converter service at the same time as the turbo install. Otherwise I was hoping to find an installer near me here in PA and then go to Level 10 in NJ for the VB mod.

Tilley and Mardigras are at the top of the pack on VQ's. Tilley, in this case, has the upper hand though. A) he's got his own ligitimate shop and b) he's close to you. Besides, you get to party in the great town of Anneville! Right by Hershey park! Not that I'm biased at all... my wife went to LVC.

A boosted car I know is going to bring a new level of headache, wondering, money, work, time yet in the end oh so worth it. But I hear you about needing a second car when boosting, i've been warned about the time it takes to fully tune it.
