Street Mechanic Wanted!!!

Sup, ya'll

Well, I live in the tiny POS town called Bradford, PA 16701 (home of the Zippo lighter!).

Anyway, I am 99% sure to be getting a supercharger from Garm here in the next couple of months and need someone to help me out. These type of things go much more smoothly with 2 people, not to mention I am not the most inclined person in the world.

I can provide beer, food, and money!

So, if any of you are within a few hours of me please hit me up.

We shall make it a fun weekend, for sure!

My car needs to be deserving of the Vitz RS treatment....

Thanks!

I love this forum so I would rather meet up on here, but if things don't work out I will try craigslist.

Don't be shy!!!

If you can install and tune with me the reward is somewhere around $1k (give or take a few bucks lol).

DEAD serious, folks. Just want to do this with someone's help that has at least more knowledge than me:D

Hmm.... 5 hour drive for a grand and some food and beverages?

I tore down a turboed Yaris and turned it back stock, and turned around a reinstalled the setup on another Yaris.

And I am taking the last tests to be an ASE Certified Master Mechanic, and ASE Certified as a Parts Specialist
