EAS never called back? thats weird. Probably out of the ordinary. They are a very good shop. I'm planning to take my car there soon for some time on their dyno. Sounds like a perfect place to get ur rb's in and make sure it run's right.
Hit them up again |

I got my RB's installed at LTMW.
There are a few other places that I know that can do turbo swaps if you're looking for an alternative to LTMW: 1. EAS (you should try calling them again, they've always replied to my e-mails and calls) 2. Evolution Racewerks 3. So-cal Cobb (I don't know how much they charge though) |

LTMW's taking care of it as we speak. The problem might have been a fitment issue with the AR Catted DP's which might have been one of the main culprits to the leak. Even though this happened, I know LTMW will make it right and I trust them. They do have good customer service. |

I had my AWD turbos installed at the BMW dealer and that thing leaked like mofo. Rene@LTMW found the leak and took care of it right away. They also did my single turbo swap. No leaks, no issues. |

Just CA 91 (probably the worst quality 91 pump gas) and no meth.
And I thought about doing a E85 mix, but the closest pump around where I live is a 30 minute drive out of the way. The reason no meth is because there's health and safety issues that I don't want to deal with. I use methanol at work already sometimes and it's not something I want sitting in my trunk for a few horse power gains. |

Not sure if they finished it yet, since they were working on another car yesterday. It should be done by Monday if anything.
As long as I can get around 430-450 whp, I'm happy. Maybe when I move in a couple months, I would do the e30 mix since I would be a few minutes away from the e85 pump. Also, before you get too crazy about the e85, maybe you should think about upgrading your fuel pump as well. That can save a few headaches. |

You could have gotten that kind of power on E85 if you were willing to use E85 as you stated.. |
