mechanic
Had mine done by PFS a little over a year ago. Don't know if they would want to be "bothered" to do something so "trivial" nowadays. All they want to deal with now is big money project cars. Your best bet now would probably be KD Rotary-4 hours away....I just wish we could get another competent mechanic near us. I keep hearing that John Duff or somebody is supposed to be opening a shop near us. I've heard mixed reviews and rumors, but can't say personally....By the way, I'm pretty new to the seen and live in Lakeridge. I'm going to try to join and go to the MSC meeting next month. I've heard there's a strong support group there....Maybe you should check it out.

Huy,
I got mine done at KD about 6 months ago. I know its a bit far for you (about 4 hours) but I think it's worth it to have the job done right and not get ripped off.

Don't know if you feel like coming to Baltimore, MD area or not... But I do quite a bit of FDs. I've even fixed two FDs that had hose jobs done at PFS. Apparently they try to get them in and out quick and cut the hoses too long under the intake plennum, they end up kinking and you don't get good boost on the second turbo...
Just thought I'd throw that out there...
