    I live in Downey, CA.

    If you are willing to wait a little bit I can do the install for you at my buddies place. We have experience, mostly with EJ20 and 4G63, but applications to the 2AZ-FE is real direct. Also have a toyota certified mechanic on hand as well in case something goes wrong.

    So long as the turbo kit is bolt on, and comes with all necessary hardware required for installation, you're looking at a 6-9 hour job.

    75 dollars an hour in labor, so if you're interested let me know.

    Also it helps to know, which turbo kit you bought also.

    Well you could just drop by the local movie theater and check out 3 or 4 movies lol.....

    If not, you can have a buddy come down with you, and you can drop the car off in the morning and come back later that evening.

    You're not going to find any labor cheaper than 75 bucks an hour for a turbo drop. PM me if you're still interested. If you have good mechanic experience you could also stay for the install as well, an extra hand is always useful.

    If you're getting fuel cut then it's a 90% chance you need engine management.

    What type of engine management are you running?

    As for the AFC Neo, I would recommend that you use a piggy back unit that can monitor/adjust both timing and A/F ratios.

    Get back to me.

    I do live in SoCal.

    I've been working on the 4g63 and EJ20 as long as I can remember, and my old roommate was a Toyota mechanic.

    Being around that long in the automotive scene in Southern California and not having decent hook ups is a bad sign lol.
