My tuner is all good, and my current builder is outstanding. But it’s becoming apparent that my current builder just doesn’t have the time to get to my engine. He’s already freshened up my heads, measured and magnafluxed my cranks rods, cases etc… none of it is “junk”. One set of super flows have been decked, I won’t be using those heads for this build.Your going to need someone to tune that motor as well as build it, Paradise would be a good place to go. Be prepared as soon as you switch engine builder, they won't agree with the last guy and it will cost you money. Nobody will build you a 350 hp VW with junk parts and stand behind it.
The fact you're not building and tuning the motor yourself makes me think you will be in the shop a lot in the future. VW is a bad choice IMHO.
I know the feeling my car sat at the engine shop for 5 weeks, waiting on parts because of "covid" I called up the manufacture parts were in stock the whole time. went and picked up my car and decided to just do it myself.This is frustrating, my builder just isn’t getting it done . Going on 9 months now. I’m going to miss at least 1/2 the season
I’ve made an appointment with paradise VW for January. If he doesn’t have it done by new years, I’m going over there, paying him for what he’s done and picking up my parts.
This isn’t that, he has all the parts and it’s been 9 months.I know the feeling my car sat at the engine shop for 5 weeks, waiting on parts because of "covid" I called up the manufacture parts were in stock the whole time. went and picked up my car and decided to just do it myself.
The price they quoted me is actually substantially less than what my current builder has told me.I used Paradise for my first motor & they tuned the second one for me. I was very happy with them.
Greg is the BEST!!! He built all of the exhaust systems for the Pro Mod I worked on. His work is amazing & more importantly he he is one of the most awesome human beings on the planet.Once I get the engine back, it’s off to Greg Holeman with the turbo to get the exhaust built. Then I need to build the engine harness and then tune and program it
It does, I just don’k know if I’ll even get a trip in this seasonThat sounds like it’s all coming together.
Time to get the wife a good paying job!It does, I just don’k know if I’ll even get a trip in this season
I also bought a boat…. Which means I’m now running low on disposable cash
