Anyone out there,
I'm in the Miami, FL area and I want to install an 18T, R manifold, BOV and Pod gauge - easy eh?. Someone was supposed to help me but he never did. I'm in dire need to install these in my 850R and I will pay you whatever you (reasonably) ask for as long as you do it well. I'll be there to help with any man-power if needed. I leave Miami for Maryland next weekend hence I want to do the install before I leave next weekend; otherwise I hope someone in my area (NEC) can help the following weekend. I know someone out there can help or direct to someone that can help. So please, I beg again....forgive my short notice and help me if you can :)

if you were in Orlando i would say we could do it on my days off. but a trip to Miami is i bit farther than I would like to go. and my wagon has its own issues I'm trying to hammer out before Fixx Fest.



PS what are you doing with the OLD parts? (i need a turbo :ph34r: )

Akin! whats up man I'd be glad to help you up here. If you dont get it done down there definetly pm me or if you still have my cell call me. I'm usually free on the weekends just give me some cash for gas and we're good. I can't guarantee it will be a one day thing but when your back in MD let me know.

Edit: the pod and gauge are easy. I did mine in about 30 minutes. Easier especially if you keep your stock cluster. Oh yeah and im back in school so im in College Park so even closer to you!

Thanks for the support Bro.....I'm sure people down here would have helped in a heart beat....my timing is just off. I shouldn't have heavily depended on my contact. Worst case scenario, I'll do it in MD.......I'll just have to forfeit my dreamy 18T beastly performance-style drive down to MD :(

You can have my old turbo if you want. Just name your (reasonable) price and we'll work around it.

You've always been the Man Bro. I'll call you when I get back (if I haven't done it). I'm projecting 21st or 22nd so let me know if that'll fit into your schedule. You deserve more than petrol money by the way. Thanks again.

Are you passing near Gainesville on the way up ? There is a great shop there, Richard's Import Store. They did a lot of the work on my wagon and they could do all that easily. PM me if you want their number, it's a father and 3 sons and they are rock solid.

with all due respect, Maryland fits on to one of our counties... yea i live in FL but my ride to Miami is 4 hours. i can clear Maryland in less than 2 hour weather im going north to south or east to west. lots of people in the FL crew would help me including, but this is a hike for us becuase we are mostly in the Jax to orlando (northern FL) area

The thought of someone actually paying you to help work on a car is scary all on its own.

How long will it take to do the install.....4-5hrs????
Time is money, no?
Money is also way to show appreciation I thought; either way, I'm still learning the culture.

Time is money when you are paying for someone to help you that has experience and can provide good work. Dave has neither and I wouldn't let him near helping on the car, even for free.
