So where would you go in WA to have a turbo kit installed/tuned?

I'm picking up an FT-86 in the next week (deposit on it, just waiting for it to arrive), I'll be moving to WA within a week after that. I'm planning on buying one of the turbo kits now available around Thanksgiving and having it installed/tuned shortly thereafter.
Was wondering who around here you guys would suggest to do it ?

Just a FYI, but I'll be working with both Drift Office and VTR when our turbo kit gets here and I'm putting it on/dynoing it.

What kind of power increase can you expect with the turbo?

You'd be better to ask this question from the specific vendors selling the many different kits out there OR just use the search in the engine forum


*edit* jfyi this was like a 20 day old thread, I kinda decided what I'm doing already - Might be useful to others still however
