Ready to get some work done

I was in a few weeks ago and talked to Mike about bringing my car in to get my turbo and intercooler all plumbed in. I PMed Mike about it a few times and he was very helpful, however now that I'm ready to bring the car down I guess he's gotten busy. I'd like to get the car to you guys before I go up north next week. How's the schedule looking? I'd call but I'm work right now...

-Austin

Austin, when you get a chance, you can drop off at any time. If I remember correctly, you might also need a trailer, you are more then welcome to come by and us ours.

Thank you,

Ian

Thanks guys

I'm going to be bringing the car in Friday when you guys open. I'm going to use another trailer, as it'd be too much of a PITA to come out from Clearwater just to pick it up and go all the way back home....etc

Looking forward to seeing the finished product

Bump for the guys at DC...they couldn't get my car done in one day as promised. So they're going to look after it and bring it to me when I get back, so I don't have to be any more inconvenienced.

I knew I picked the right guys for the job! Thanks !

Car is done

Just got the car back today. I gotta say I'm glad I chose these guys, they really hooked me up after the work turned out to be more complicated than originally thought. Here are some pics of their work:







Right now I've removed the intercooler pipes and the compressor housing to get powdercoated while I'm away on business. I'm looking forward to getting this on the road when I get back.

If I'm still living in FL when the transmission project is ready....you guys will def get my business
