Turbo work + ceramic coating

Since my car is on an extended vacation, I'm taking the time to do things right under the hood. I have all my parts out and am cleaning them up to be nice and using new gaskets everywhere... possibly even new bolts too.

Beyond that I'm wanting to ceramic coat most of my intake, alternator, my exhaust turbine housings and my side and intermediate housings in black ceramic high-temp. I plan to polish the compressor housings, the enfini y-pipe and throttle body, just to set the black off a little bit. I plan to keep my midpipe setup with the stock cat-back but will be running a fresh fuel filter, freshly cleaned injectors and an M2:stage3 -- I figure if I port the WG or even better have a larger door installed with even MORE porting I wont ever have to worry about spiking above 12psi... not to mention the ceramic coated turbine housings will keep heat down and exhaust velocities up.

My major question is, where in the Central Florida area can I have the ceramic work done as well as get my turbo wastegate, either ported or both ported and have a larger flapper door installed. I'm paranoid about my turbos getting damaged if I take them to the wrong shop, just as much as I'm worried someone will overcharge me for the labor... If I let someone do the coating on my intermediate and side housings I dont want them to coat the wear surfaces or cause any inconsistancies that would give me issues down the road. Hopefully someone knows of a good couple of shops that can do the work or even better one shop that can do it all.

Thanks,
~Kris
