Any of my Arizona guys recommend a good shop that deals primarily with Lexus/Toyota(preferrably aftermarket support)? I stopped over at PPE Engineering today to see if they do service as well and unfortunately they no longer do. I got a full header back exhaust and the guys there strongly recommended I find a lift as it is not easy to put in the headers. I looked up car bay/lift rental places and closest one is in Tucson(I'm in Gilbert). Driving an hour and 1/2 to get there to work on spicy hot exhaust/car sounds awful to me lol. They also said its probably about an 8hr install. I also have the RR Racing supercharger enroute and not sure If I'm comfy installing it myself, hopefully it has detailed instructions lol. Any recommendations would be great! Thanks

As a side note, any RCF owners in AZ here got the supercharger kit?

Are you saying PPE is no longer installing their own products?

I've had both Earnhardt Lexus and Bell Lexus install aftermarket equipment and they did a fantastic job. Let me know if you'd like contact info.

Yes unfortunately. I stopped in at PPE and they stated they don't. I believe they moved buildings. They said they only had 1 lift and its used seldomly and for testing purposes only.

Well, that's a shame. I was lucky enough to have Paul install my headers, high flow cats, etc. I'd check with both dealerships and see if they'll do the installs.
