hi ppl, i finally bought the obx header, anyone know a good place for installation in so cal. im in the diamond bar area
thanx

 

good luck, so far i know of two places but they are at least 150 so its not worth it.

 

Where for $150?!?!?! that price beats the crap out of $300+ down here in OC. I'll do it for 150! Let's go get a group installation done...maybe they'll give you discount

 

There is a shop in Pasadena called GT Group, they've been in the business for years and this will be a sinch for them. Their # is 626 584 5860

Alot of members on this board use this shop. Ask for Will and tell him Scottie sent you.

 

$150?!??! you guys pay wayyy too much fer installs sometimes... I got my headers put in at Dynamic Autosports down in El Toro (OC) here for $100...

 

I installed AkuraCLS's OBX Headers and my own Comptech Headers... so if you want, I can do it for you.

I am sure Eddie down at Dynamic won't do it for $100 anymore

PM me if you want. I am in Woodland Hills. Also PM AkuraCLS if you want to hear his view on the install etc.

 

I agree with ghander, GT Group in Pasadena is the spot, I have used it in the past, as far as Diamond Bar goes, nothing...

BTW, I always ask the question and never get a reply, we sure do have alot of folks in the Diamond Bar Chino Hills area on this forum, where are you all located?

I see more CLs in my areas than anywhere else in LA??????
But noone ever answers me when I put it out on the forum, thats okay, you guys wanna be stelth, I understand.

 

I will reccomend SP ENGINEERING....I trust them with my life....they have done many jobs on my old car (accordv6) plus springs and coils for the CLS....they are very good with their work. SP is KNOWN in the San gabriel valley for their quality installations....check out their site www.sp-power.com . Go and ask for a guy named IVAN

Also, they have made it into Turbo Mag and others several times, noted for their engine work....The price may be a lil higher than at an average shop, BUT, u pay for what u get...

its not even that far from u....U get off at HACIENDA from the 60 fwy going WEST...im sure u know where that is

 

let me know how much they charge and how it goes, if u decide on going there...but seriously, they are good...they did my TEINS, and its perfect, adjusted height and everything...i will go there in a couple of months to have them install a suspension on my 03 330ci

 

Hay guys..theres going to be an irvine week the first week of feb. Goto the club events to check it out.

 

thanx for all the replies guys
i see a whole bunch of cl/tls around here, we should definately meet up sometimes

 

in a few words: ALL MOTOR ROX!

 

if u check the accordv6.com forums there is a member name Ei-ccord that does installs for ppl in socal.

His rates are very reasonable and he's ASE certified.

 

I just had my OBX Headers installed at GT Group Performance Racing that you guys recommended. It was only suppose to take about 1:30 hrs...but ended up taking 3 hrs. FU$KING OXB made the holes too small and they had to bore out the holes...and then the pipe was in contact with the front engine mount...they had to remove that and start to find ways around it. They did a good job. Quoted my $120 over the phone...but due to the extra time because OBX fu&ked up, they asked for $150...which i think is pretty fair. I was come do my mods there again...the only problem is that it's 45 Miles away and takes about 1 hour to get there.

 

I hope only they did not switch the front and rear headers...

Where is the OBX logo? on the front or the rear?

 

Got mine done @ Valencia Acura..Santa Clarita... $150..

 

Yeah, i told them before they started that OBX stamped header piece goes in the rear. Told them it was unusual...but it was confirmed by other that it was. When they installed it they tried both ways, and they ended up putting the stamped on in the rear.

Other people had the same problem with the holes being too small...pre-production model? Or they found out that they f$cked up and sold them for cheaper?
