colt45 Posted May 26, 2010 Author Share Posted May 26, 2010 did use maps why go to another stealership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Is the stealership going to cover this. if not ask around the local repair shop's to find a good machine shop who will do the rebuilding. This is pretty much normal work and can be done by most competent repair shops. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).

Max Capacity Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 If your doing this yourself. Talk with Mark Eastwood at Eastwoods Auto Machine in Somersville. 860 749 2903 http://www.eastwoodsautomachine.com They do a lot of import work and work for a lot of dealers around here. Even dealers in Hartford send there stuff up to him. You can tell him the guy with the yellow honda civic sent you. They are old family friends. Pulling it apart, is another thing, is that something your going to do? I have a trailer if you need help moving it. I have also had good customer service from Mike at http://www.TuningAlliance.com he's in W.Springfield MA for your tuning needs. Sounds like you may have some burnt valves ? 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.
