I am going to be purchasing a new ACT 2600 soon for my AWD. I was wondering if there are any good/cheap places to get it installed. I would also need my flywheel resurfaced. Would KOU do it? I'm guessing the dealership would try to rape me on the price.
Also if anyone knows where I could get a cheap ACT 2600 let me know. I am looking at fasterthanthem.com, extremepsi.com, or prostreetonline.com. Fasterthanthem sponsors a forum that I'm on, so i'll probobly buy form them, unless I can find a site thats a lot cheaper. Thanks for your help. |

Do it yourself. Its really not that hard. Just time consuming if its your first.

You help me do mine and I'll help you do yours. I've taken a few DSM transmissions out before but only one was taken out without the motor. I'm just waiting until I get all the parts and the weather gets warm enough. I'm a sissy when it comes to being cold. BTW, I've got all the tools you need.

That would save me a lot of money, but we'd have to do your car first, to make sure we don't screw anything up  .Don't worry, I hate working in the cold too. |

Actually, AIM's no good. I got a new computer and won't be downloading it. Just PM me here.

As far as installs go, KOUMotorsports can do it, or I can do it.

Ask Xian for a quote from KOU.
I'd assume a couple bills, that's about what I'd want. Book time is around 8 hours, if I remember correctly, which at a dealer is around 550-600. -------------------- 2009 Scion Tc

I'd trust KOU or James to do it before any other shop.
BTW James, do you have a clutch alignment tool? I've got to know that I have access to one before I put the new clutch on. -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"

I have one, and if you buy a clutch, one usually comes in the kit. I'm sure I can scrounge one up.
