Default SR20DET, XAT or SS??

Ive read posts on both XAT and Secret Services, but who actually does better work on a SR20DET swap into a 240sx?(as in Quality, consistancy, price,Tuning, speed, down time, etc.) and does SS do AC and PS?
Im not trying to put either shop down...cause im sure they both do good work, but before i go and spend a bunch of money i would like to know who is going to do the best job?

i've only used ss in all my dealings with my car(s), and have been satisfied almost to the point of giddiness with all their work.

Taylor is at xat now......but no matter what, only SS got tuning capabilities as they have a dyno and cut you a deal on everything.

They both do excellent work in my opinion and i have dealt with them on many occasions personally.

i was wondering the same thing. i've heard good things about both shops, but don't know anyone personally who had sr20det swaps done by them. so any advice would be appreciated. i know xat only charges 1,000 to install and that includes a/c and ps, not sure how much ss would charge. anyone here know of a good place to order a sr20det swap at a decent price?

swaps can be had through many sources but some people only get motors sometimes.

xat gets motors apparently but they only get them if they do the install so you cant just buy a motor from them. alot of shops get them from a higher source anyways.

enjuku and heavythrottle carry engines, project silvia does, shop in NC (forgot name), individuals in miami and tampa do as well. almost any shop that imports motors CAN, but the shops that specify in them like enjuku, HT, PS will give you the best deals and usually know what kind of shipments they get and such.

thanks, i've checked out enjuku and ht. most likely i'll have xat do the swap. i'm just trying to research more about it before i go on with the swap, i'm a honda guy. thanks for the advice.
