Question where to get gears installed in NJ

like the title says, where should i go to get my gears installed. Looking for something close to central nj though i might take a trip to ttp only problem i have is that i would have to wait for it to be installed as i cant just drop it off so something local would be a bit better (edison area)

Buba: We have a lot of customers from the Edison area (meatyz, yell03z06). Why not ask Meatyz if he wants to take a ride up to us. Dan's always looking for an excuse to try to get talked into AFR's since hes only making 440rwhp cam only through his a4 Gears are a 2 business day thing just because sometimes you can't predict how long it takes to get the shim stack just right. Nothing leaves here unless its 100%. Although you can ask everyone that has had their gears installed here, not 1 complaint.

It would be $375 to install gears + fluids.

was at your shop a few months ago when i finally got my car dynoed (had the car for 5 years now). I did like how you guys treated me and talked to me about various things to do on the car. Right now i have a converter that has to get installed and then gears. I already have a place thats going to install the converter for a good price(250) but if maybe you want to work a deal with installing the converter,gears and maybe a few other parts that would be cool. Its not like i cant install any of this stuff, but now that im older and know what kind of time it takes to install certain things i rather just pay to have it done.

the best thing to do is bring it to a good ls1 shop and let them do it all.
its easy that way. it might cost a few $$ but worth it in the long run.
either myself or east side does my work, i wouldnt take my car to anyone not farmilar with ls1 cars, its bad. ttp is farmilare with them, and pretty close to you. let them do it.
