call around, i dont know any performance shop that "spealizes" in toyotas in MN nor WI, most or a lot of them are hondas/mitsu/nissans/. Look in the phone book and ask them if they would swap in your motor

what was your setup like? you didnt list any details in your profile. what injectors did you have, what did you use to tune with, did you take it a dyno to find out your a/f ratio?

That sucks man. But I know RS is a good place to go for toyota work. My buddy with a built 7th got most of his stuff done there and loves their work. 952-707-0100 thats their number, hope you can get your car up and running before winter.
