Default Install and Tune in NC

I basically have a stock 2005 Vert, other than exhaust. I am planning on doing a Centri FI build later down the road. I live outside of the US, currently, so I will be doing the build in stages.

I will be in Fayetteville NC in April and have decided to purchase a ZR1 Cam, Bee Hive springs, and a Fast 102 Intake Manifold.

My question is: Where is a good, reputable shop to get this installed and tuned at a good price?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Great info. How often does your club meet? I would be interested in joining once I am back in the States on a more permanant basis.
