Default need some 06 turbo'd accord help

i need some help in the charlottesville area(or less than 100 miles)..i have a 06 accord sedan with a factory k24a4. it has a full greddy/trust turbo kit that included E-manage and a RPM/air/fuel/injector controller(with 2 extra injectors that run into the charge pipe)..the e-manage set fire and led to complete failure. the shop covered it all. they replaced the motor with a 13xxx mile swap. after they installed it,we brought it back to storage. after all of this i finally got the car running and out of "limp mode"(full rpm's) and was hitting boost(no vtec due to cel). the car would not spin a tire nor launch either(which was fine previously without the turbo and befor the "import specialist"). it did not overheat even during extreme idling. this was all 2 years ago

so as of know it will not turn over. i need a shop who i can bring it to and get it right. i know that the k series softwares are not cheap, but thats ok(we already figured a loss on a 06 accord with 14xxx original miles) and just want to be able to turn it back around in the end. all the parts are there. turbo seals are good(as far as not leaking oil from eyes tell), all intercooler piping and mounting done, vacuum lines are there, full turbo timer and boost controller(all greddy).

the short:
=06 accord sedan 5 speed k24a4
=greddy/trust turbo kit-now minus Emanage
=was running but no vtec(i know its like a economy type and shouldnt even have thought about the turbo)
=currently not running
=want to get a decent shop to do it(no more sweaty egyptians)
=kpro is deffinatly in the plans

if you know of a shop/sponser/patron who can give me a heads up or come and check it out(or i come to them) you can give me a call at 434-882-6446 it may very well be a easy fix(if fluent with all the greddy electronics

Adrenaline Autoworks. Dan there is awesome with k-series stuff. And they can tune your car on kpro in house, that greddy piggyback is crap.

Who did the work around Charlottesville? The only place I know of that has honda aftermarket expertise is a place called High Speed auto (I'm pretty sure that's the name of the place), it's over off of rt 33 on the way to Gordonsville. I have never taken a car there but i have never heard anything bad about them. I don't even know for sure they would want to deal with something that modified. You would probably be better off taking it outside of this area.
