Default Anyone from MN familiar with Turbo Installs?

Like it says, I'd rather not pay $800 for Elite to do it and take 35 days. Anyone from the state done an install before?

Agreed, friend's turbo'd LS has been sitting there for ages, they installed it 3 months ago and so far the turbo's needed a rebuild, new wastegate, and now its got a massive leak somewhere and they cant find it. Not that its their fault the turbo's crapped out, but I'd sure suck to let your car sit there for a good month before they can get to it.

dude, that is exactly what I did NOT need to hear because I am looking to have Elite install and tune my Greddy (or Drag, can't decide) turbo kit in the spring. They seem to know what they are doing, I haven't heard of any install delays though. They told me it would take two days to install and properly tune the kit.

No, I dont have a green del sol. Yes, Isaac does know his ****, and is a really nice guy, however, Devin has his head so far up his **** that i am amazed anything comes outta that shop in a functional form.

ok first off devin doesn't work there anymore so keep up on the times, second of all tyler just drops his car off when ever he feels like it, even when there are 10 cars ahead of his to fix. Third tyler has problems because he re-adjusts stuff after the tune, and has to run more boost at the track which it wasn't tuned for. I can go on for days so just let me know.

Oh, didn't know you knew I ran MNSR. No, actually it's just a tanabe style muffler, I forgot to update my sig, but it's that muffler with custom 2" piping , so technically it's a whole cat-back exhaust. But it sucks, plain and simple. I'm upgrading to the HKS Hiper 60mm or larger cat-back exhaust and running a test pipe as well. But hey, if you need a cheap style muffler, I'll sell you mine .

Well, I don't know man. There are a LOT less idiots on there then there were in March-May in case you haven't noticed. But it's all good, everyone has their own opinions. I have gotten a lot of praise for my site, I have also gotten a lot of **** for it too. Oh well, whatever, to each his own .
