I missed the pulley party. When is the next one? Recommended shops?

I missed the pulley party and am interested in having it done. Any idea when the next pulley party will be? If it isn't anytime soon can anyone recommend a shop to get installed? I live in Stockton and work in Livermore so anywhere near these areas would be best.

Thanks in advance for any info!

I am interested in pulley install. East Bay/Stockton area.

I missed the pulley party that was in Oakland last week and am interested in having it done. Any idea when the next pulley party will be? If it isn't anytime soon can anyone recommend a shop to get it installed? I live in Stockton and work in Livermore so anywhere near these areas would be best.

Thanks in advance for any info!

I looked for a shop in the Stockton to Pleasanton area I didn't find any. I gave up on that after about 2 months. So I began checking the Sacramento area. I finely just gave it up and went to Seven Ent. in Auburn. They installed the Borla Sport catback and the 15% pulley. They do great work and are a great bunch of guys. If you call them ask for Mike. I live in Stockton also, it seems to be located in the center of everything, but next to nothing.

A&E Performance

I've heard A&E Performance is good.

Please post what you find out from them since I missed the party too and may want to have it done sometime soon.

Bay Bridge Motors in Oakland. It's the same place they did the pulley party at.

Do you think I could check out your Mini sometime? I'd like to see how much improvement the pulley and exhaust did.

I second that! They did my pulley a few months ago. Very happy with the job.

You bet, I'll be glad to meet you. I've been looking for someone in the Stockton area. Just don't be shocked to see an old gray headed geezer. I'll pm you.

Is there anywhere closer to the Livermore/Stockton area that anyone can recommend? I've called a few shops and so far they are pricey and they don't have much experience doing pulley installs.

You should call Jacques at Bay Bridge and tell him you're coming from Stockton. They are usually very helpful. I was in and out in only a couple of hours. Plus, they are familiar with the install, and will give NorCal MINIS members a break on the price.
