No hating here. As long as you have a turbo you are cool with us.

They took my money two times for turbos for my rx7 twin turbo.
Both times they claimed it was out of warranty for whatever reason.
Both times the turbos smoked. I finally got sick of it and got used turbos from a junkyard and got rid of the car as a result.
Majestic sucks ***
Call me at 832-443-5794
I'll be happy to give you details
That includes you Art
Don't ever do business with Majestic.
This is my only way to get some justice.

maybe it has something to do with me living in texas? I have heard of horror stories too, but if asked with my personal expierence I say it was good. So far its been good and have done alot of business with them. You'll have the good and the bad expierence with any company.

i sent them a turbonetics turbo to get rebuilt, they did a good job and it never blew or anything. one thing that did **** me off is that Kevin talked me into upgrading my wheel to a stage 3 which was fine. he told me that the wheel was 100 bucks extra on top of the 200 rebuild charge. the next thing i knew the turbo was on its way back nd they charger me 430!!! i was like WTF, so i called them and kevin was not available so i talked to the younger guy. he said "there is no way kevin told you it was 100 bucks for the wheel, they are over 200." i just hung up the phone and thats the last time ill deal with them.

Wow!! A lot of different responses.....I respect everyones opinion and I am glad I posted here..........I am talking about Waco Texas Majestic Turbo. I appreciate everybodies feedback and will take the good with the bad.....Mon. is still a day away so maybe more peeps will chime in and share their experiences. Since Arturbo does a lot of turbo sales,maybe he gets "preferred treatment",warranty issues taken care of,etc. But I am just a guy off the street,and want to get a good turbo for my money. I work as a full time mechanic and work hard for my money and need to get a good value.Thanks again Honda-Tech peeps!

there are plenty of places to send your turbo, honestly its not worth it to send it to those guys.

A friend of mine had a turbo rebuilt by them 4 times, it still smokes to this day, and they charged him everytime! My friend is a dumbass for sending it to them 4 times, but lesson learned I guess. Precision turbo. They warrantied my turbo when it was leaking.
