Anyone in Houston that can help me with basic installation?

Ok, so I have some aftermarket parts laying in the garage because I haven't gotten to installing them yet.. because I don't know how to install them Yes, I'm the stereotypical girl who can't work with tools LOL. Anyway, I was wondering if there's anyone in Houston who could help me install my AMS intercooler, upper and lower intercooler pipes, intake, and a catback exhaust. I was planning to take it to a shop but they charge by the hour, and what should take about an hour to install takes them three hours to do?? And yes I'll pay you to install the parts for me! I just need these parts on asap so I can go get my Evo dyno-tuned right after. Thanks in advance

P.S. It's an Evo MR IX if that helps. And I see a lot of Evo's in Houston but no one introduced themselves to me yet

I can't believe not one Houston EVOm member has replied. I would help you but all my tools n stuff are in Dallas (I work in Houston M-F, live in Dallas). There has got to be someone in Houston who can help you. I wonder if Houston has its own Evo forum on another website, cause Houston rarely ever post on EvoM.

Worst case senerio, you could always make the 250 mile trip to Dallas and have KevinD install all your parts and tune your car. He does great work and is highly respected in the Evo community. It would probably be safe to assume, he has some how touched every Evo in NTEC (North Texas Evo Club). I don't know what your budget is for the installation of parts but this might be an avenue you might want to explore.

Here is his info:

Oh and I can't make an account on houston imports bc they need me to have a school email or an email other than yahoo, gmail, etc. I forgot my password to my university email so yeahh haha. And I don't know if any Evo people get on houston-imports.. they're mostly people who own Civics and hatches and stuff like that
