That's where I bought my motor from. They are probably the WORST company I've ever dealt with. The motor came with a bad ignitor chip, WHICH THEY MAKE YOU PAY EXTRA FOR, 3 bad coils, chewed up wiring harness beyond really saving in some areas, almost near death turbo, and oh yeah, a BLOWN MOTOR. It had 70psi compression in 2 of the 4 cylinders, bad rings. They wouldn't answer my emails, and never return my phone calls. The first time I called and told them my problem they said they would call me back, but never did. Every time after that they would tell me their manager would call me back, but never did. I probably called them 50 times before I gave up. Plus, you don't really have any options legally since they are located in Canada. Do yourself a favor, stick with a US based company to order your motor from. Heavythrottle.com is pretty respectable, and there are a few good others as well.

I dunno bout you OP but I would HIGHLY suggest you buy from a reputable shop even if it cost a bit more. Because then alot of times people come back on the forums and start posting all kinds of crazy issues with their motors or how crappy there motors came and that the companies won't respond to phone calls or emails

I was looking through the link he provided and just from briefly looking through it I couldn't see anyone that actually posted up reviews about them, everyone was just looking for a quote.

Check out the link positron posted. I know SR20STORE is suppose to be really good and I have yet to hear any problems from that shop. There's also plenty others, just read up.
