REAL easy to get there. 287 south to 404, over the bridge, staten expressway to exit. Guys are serious. Get all my work done there, flawless work + the guys are cool and realtivly cheap. I travel from bergen county NJ to these guys. They have my total trust. They created a wicked supercharger kit for my friends 4cyl galant. check pic. They were even on the Funk Flex show on spike TV.<ul><li><a href="http://www.rippmods.com">http://www.rippmods.com</a</li></ul>

Default That's the highest price I have seen quoted for this job.

Most dealers will do it for ~$1500. Most indepedent shops can do it for a few hundred less.

Default Try George & Jack's on Crooks Avenue in Clifton

They are great with Audis and have decent prices if you are in the northern NJ area. Drawback: Need an appointment!!
