Parts work

Anyone know of a shop or place that has experience working with subaru's and installing aftermarket mods, ie fuel pumps, turbo's, fuel injectors etc?

Like actual experience with suby's and no issues. Don't want to waste my time at a place that only cater's to honda's like 90% of the island here.

If any place like this exists, please let me know.

thx

Lol dude sounds like youre trying to say we cant afford subies if were locals. Theres a lot of locals here with subarus. And i can garantee majority of these guys on iclub are alot more careful to install parts than a shop. I personally would say ask someone on here to help you out with some of the installs like the turbo and fuel pump atleast. Matter of fact the injectors too. Youre gna need to rescale your ecu anyways, im sure someone with a tactrix on here would be willing to help you out with that. Saves you money, you meet more people and you can learn at the same time.

^^^This.

Some of the most experienced and skilled wrenchers on Subies don't own/work at shops. Being humble and cool will help you connect with the right people.

Yeah...I got that too from the tenor of his post. Believe me buddy there's a lot of "locals" (yours included) who can afford to modify their Subies.

BTW I do all my own work and would be willing to do a turbo and all supporting fueling mods as well on my own car.

some people just can't, or shouldn't, work on their own cars.
btw, import dynamics is closing soon, so i wouldn't go there...
and most of us have done almost everything you could do to a subie, it really isn't that hard, just sometimes a pain in the *** (uppipes!)
