If so, what did you go with and who did the work?

I have Vargas Stage 2 Batch 2 on the way, still debating if i am going to be doing the work or actually find somebody to swap for me. It's a fairly large job to replace the turbos.

It was the one in Norwood. Right across the highway from Mercedes and Porsche I think. I forgot my service reps name but they are a really good dealership over all

I'd be up for the install but I'm sure ill regret it lol. Downpipes suck but are usually 3 hours, knowing that and seeing how much room is pretty non existant and how much work it is I'd be surprised if it took less than ten hours.

It took him about 20hours plus he replaced the valve cover and some other shit that was giving me grief. I just need to get a retune from Bren and I will be good. I have a basemap on my Cobb AP for now and the car feels really strong. |

i honestly forgot the name. i think the first one i went through was named jim i think. he wears glasses and is very upfront about everything. he sits in the second cubicle on the right. the second guy i dealt with on another guy but i wouldnt recommend him because he just wanted to charge me for everything and didnt want to give me anything off like jim did. Hope that helps.

Cool cool... I've seen projects get out of hand which is why I ask. I'll give them a call. Is your tranny okay with the new turbos? I'm 6ATxi also. |
