Default Which DFW shop to go to for turbo work? VSV or Jotech

Hey everyone help me out. I know a ton of Dallas guys cruise this forum and my question is turbo related SO... I need to know your experiences with these two Dallas shops. I have it narrowed down to just these 2 so I don't need any other options!

1. VSV Performance in Carrollton

2. Jotech

I need to get some work done (turbo related of course) and I'm trying to find a good shop with decent prices to take care of me. PLEASE HELP ME!!

never been to VSV but met a guy from VSV that built a type r yesterday when tony was tuning it, he was cool.

my money would goto jotech to build/tune a turbo setup, they have proven themselves time and time again.

in house dyno helps too.

I just drove to Jotech from hEl Paso to get my car tuned. Probably one of the best experiences I've ever had with a tuner shop. Definite thumbs up to Tony and crew.
