Pulley install in (boston or philly area)

I would like some info on places to get a pulley done in the boston, Philly, or NJ area. I just did and intake which is a simple install, but the pulley job seems to be a bigger task. Info or links on the install would be helpful too. Thanks for your help. I am new to minis so any info would be great!

Helix gets my +1.

Any bigger mod I have on my car was done by them and I've been nothing but pleased.

I highly recommend Helix as well. Very professional and the work is top notch. Talk to Eric at Helix, very nice and professional, and will explain and answer all your questions. Good luck

I don't want to start a sticky question, but what's the ball park in cost for having one installed?

Flat rate for install at helix is $385 (that includes the pulley). Pity, you just missed an install day that NEMINI put on. (We saved a lot!) Might be having another someday soon, sooooo.

Give Pete Eames (BWROOFCHEX) at DT Automotive in Worcester, MA a call. The number at the shop is (508) 754-1400. I think his price installed is under $300. He's a local MINI owner and very active in several clubs up here in New England. He does many mods for us and is a real stand-up guy.

Helix is a great Mini shop and the only place that I will ever have work on my car. If you live in NY,NJ or Conn and need mods Helix is the place to go.
