Default Philly/NJ burbs local custom shops?

Anyone know of some custom shops that will do install work in the Philly/NJ subburbs?

Basically I'm looking to get my guages installed (Defi BF boost, oil pressure, and egt, Defi 3 guage pod + controller). I saw an awesome setup by another member : link

I am confident enough to do some of the install work, but I won't touch the egt sensor probe install (don't want to screw up the headers or uppipe). So I am looking for places that would do this kind of stuff. I would even consider just having it all done someplace if it doesn't cost too much (figure it will run $150-350 with the console work that needs to be done). So anyone have any places that come to mind? Thanks.

Farabomb, Kenilworth NJ is pretty much as far away as Baltimore, MD is from me.

Thanks for the reply though (I saw them mentioned in the vendor section, but like I said, they are pretty much NY based over 2 hours drive).

I'm in South Jersey, and I can't believe that I can't find anyplace in the Philly area. Its not like Philly isn't one of the largest cities in the country or anything.

Thanks for the offer tdxflex, but I would really rather go to a shop that has done this a few hundred times.

Besides, RalliSpec is less then 1/3 mile from where I work (I just never thought to drive into that industrial park to find a custom shop). I'm gonna check them out and see if I can set something up once I get my guages (they still shipping) and paint the guage pod (my friend at work use to make his living air brushing cars, so he know how to color match and paint it the right way).

Thanks for all the replies and help in finding someplace.

Yeah, it is a little ways out of Philly, it just happens that I work right by them, so that makes them pretty much golden for me as I can just drop off the car when I go into work, and then hitch a ride from one of my co-workers to work and back to pick up the car when its done.... ooooOOOOooo so sweet to finally find a place like this. Now I might get some more stuff done (could use an oil catch can to stop the constanst drool of oil through the engin/turbo/intercooler)....

Now my brain is spinning with all the stuff I want to do but didn't cause I don't want to screw up my only car :P
