Hey Nanan, or anyone else for that matter, I'm looking for a turbo rebuild place in NW Indiana that is suppose to be cheap?

Well PTE is in Hebron, I am sure they could do a turbo rebuild for you if you still need it.


Sorry for the delay, I have not spent much time on the DSM forums.. I am kinda taking a break from the DSM world as my Eclipse is a paper weight right now.

I wish the VW world had better forums, other then the fixx and vwvortex they dont have crap.

I am now pimping a 2007 GTI for my DD.

You really need to do some research on your own. :thumb:

I have done the research on my own, but its hard when you are deployed 2 times in less than 2 years, and trying to get back on your feet before you get out... And you really need to keep your mouth shut and remember what this site is all about... Resources, and info, thats pretty much it, other than the hangout or the regional forums... Why do you think I posted in the Midwest Regional forums? WTF DUh, cause I am from there... and I havent been home in 4+ years, and alot can happen in that time, and a lot has... so that is why I am asking around... Just mind your business, and you can sit and twist on that thumb you gave me... :notgood:

or better yet, if you dont have anything nice to say, don't say nothing at all... Read the rules... and I know I just broke one, but I am proving a point....
 
I agree. Dragon is in the right on this one. With rep points and 352 posts i think he has put in his share of work...............now.......back to the topic. I have heard TopSpeed puts out some good work. I found that local 'little' shops also do good jobs. Ill ask around a little more and let you know
 
Thanks Steve... That is exactly how I felt... Freshlane, what other "little shops" are around man? You have the resources to experience them first hand, I don't. I am over 750 miles away, and I am not going to fly home just to see some shop and be unimpressed... Let me know the names, or the quality of work they do...

AMS charges too much.. :'(

You should try DEVO Tuning if moneys an issue.

AMS is well known, but they are wayyy overpriced..... NOT WORTH THE MONEY IMO, .... DEVO is a lot better and charges fair prices and out here hes got just as good if not better Rep then AMS, some of the fastest EVOs and DSMs in Chicago came out of there. What kind of work are you looking to have done??? I know of a great tuner in Hannover Park, IL - same area as all the other shops, hes awesome, great experience, knows DSMs, and prices are great.

:talon: LEE :talon:
 
Lol. Everyone is right, Dsmers are all dicks including me.


FYI,

There are over 50 smaller shops in chicago, depending on what kind of work you want done.
 
Ha ha ha, I have the same name on there as here... I am starting to like those forums more and more, but I only really go to them at work bro... just because... Josh, PM me on either Midwest or here on tuners, I have something to ask you...
 
nothing big, fuel pump... it was too rusted for me to want to deal with, and a few other small things ;) all the guys there are pretty cool. wasnt bad hanging out there for the day while waiting for the car.
 
There is also a new shop in st. charles called komet motorsports, they will do pretty much anything u need. they also do some good tuning imo. their prices are really good too
www.kometmotorsports.com
For body work and body parts, there is a place in montgomery (right outside of aurora) called distinctive auto body. they do excellent body work and fairly priced....and the guy that owns it is pretty damn cool too.
and AMS costs way toooo much
 
Parts you can get cheap if you look around, the biggest issue is tuning. Its hard to #### up something as simple as a bolt on, however when it comes to tuning you want to go to a reputable place otherwise might end up costing you your motor. If your in Chicago and want some some mods done cheap, hell I can help ya when im not busy screwin around with my 240.
 
Im about 2o miles sw of chitown in joliet, and there is a few shops of that i know of, therse is one out by me alittle south u have to do alittle travle, its in yourkville its called Hahn Racecraft. www.hahnracecraft.com i would check them out they are very well know for a member of sema just an fyi or idea for u to check out
