Bought my first "DSM" (420A) in 2001 about two months before the original Fast & Furious release. Started lurking here and on DSMTalk around 2002, I think I joined Talk in 2004 and Tuners in 2005; site staff here in 2008ish. Turbocharger repair officially began in April 2004, so I just passed 18 years servicing turbos for DSM's and beyond.
While I'm here, I wanted to pay tribute to a real local old timer in our platform that I met a long time ago who unfortunately passed away about three years ago. Most folks in SWPA know John from the fleet of DSMs that he owned...he'd often drop off a turbo or two for service at my place while on his way to the auto auction with his dog in an old 1G. Great dude- loved to talk, always had some great stories. One of the people that you don't mind stopping whatever you're doing when he shows up to talk to for an hour or so. You've probably seen him wandering around at the Shootout, he always had the pictured hat on. I hope he's up there with Curt Brown building some cool stuff.
