Because I no longer own a car or live in the UK

A mate used them a while back and had nothing but praise for them and his car was a right humdinger when he got it back aswell. Based on his experience, I would use them.

Turbosystems only fault is they are miles away from me

Had an engine built for my cabriolet about 6 years ago by a reputable tuner and it went bang within a week, almost every tuner I spoke to at that time offered me an engine rebuild based on the symptoms over the phone.. Tony refused to do this and wanted to look at the car... it ended up being driven up there on three cylinders
Unfortunately the engine needed some serious work which was done by Tony, along with throwing away the dump valve, six years later the car is still running without issue

All that's happened since, is I sold the car, got it back, changed the management and thrashed the living daylights out of it

God knows how he makes a living as half the cars never have a need to go back !!

Can't speak highly enough of Turbosystems

Last time I went down Desert Storm was running two turbo's, Snow storm lived there, some bloke with a wide arch thunder sallon moonstone three door had been car jacked by a nice man with a shotgun
Tony also had a kart, yamaha fzr and scared the feck out of me with his driving

You still doing work on CVH based cars Tony ? -- might have to send mine for a visit

That damn Tony @ Turbosystems was the swine who 1st persuaded me to get a cossy! Damn you man!! Lol.

With a genuine 20-plus year experience of Cosworth and RS Turbo tuning and fault diagnosis, he knows more than most on here!! I would recommend him any day!

Jesus fucking christ. At least you don't have all the head and heart ache of seeing your kids when she is free etc.

Other than that, I'm sorry to hear it.
