Installers

Does anyone know of a good shop in the New York tristate area to have exhaust, pulley brakes excreta installed? Any suggestions would be great.

I recomend Helix13.

Worth the trip. I have the same question a couple months ago. Made an appointment, visited the shop (which by the way is supper clean!) and the things taken care of.
Ask for Eric he is your man there.
PS: Its only 90miles away but for me its all worth it.

Yeah man, Helix is the way to go. Had my 15% pulley, short shifter kit, and rear sway bar installed by Eric at Helix.

Great guy, great service, and very fair prices!

If 90 miles of driving outside the "tri-state" makes a difference I am all for it, plus I would go anytime with proven quality work.

oh...if there are any quality shops in the tri state area...please let me know. helix is great but, if there is something closer that does great work id rather go there.

peter at m7 told me about rohr out on the island (long island). hopefully they can do all the installs i want at a fair price. i def want to shop around though. i gotta lot of stuff to put on my coop. including that m7 AGS v.3....i cant wait!!!!

thanx.
