Default Greddy installer in Wash DC / NOVA area?

anyone know of a shop that will install a Greddy kit in the Wash DC / NOVA area for a decent price?

how much do you guys think it'll cost? any tuning possible on a base, no frills kit? thanks.

wow, what an offer. but i'll still insist on at least buying you a nice gift.

hey, i'm near Rockville, MD. used to work at Bailey's Crossroads in VA.

i need to buy the turbo kit first.....oh....and the used Miata is probably necessary too.

can i get a ride in your car to see what it feels like with a turbo? your 190 HP is a lot more than what i'm shooting for though....let me know the time & day and i'll be there. thanks.

Bunch of tuned cars meetup every friday and sat for some odd reason.

Chic-Filet in Dulles Expo Center. Around 8-9. I'll give you a call when I'm going to head down.
