Best place that can do a subi install on east coast N.J

You need to get DrClock to refer you to some of the NJ Replica or Sports Car Club guys as they may have some contacts.  Peter V and David S did there own conversions so it isn't impossible to do DIY.  Englishtown, NJ used to have a big VW show in April and you could probably find some conversions there with contacts. Or look up results of that show and find contacts.

Im 15 minutes from englishtown I was planning on going to waterfest with my son,maybey ill find someone there,im going to be selling my 550 and picking up a cmc 356 end of july so my time frame is after that
