Be carefull m8 where you take it, took my old Escort to a well known tuner in Congleton as my head gasket had gone. Told me usual, gasket, skim ect plus lobour was £500 all in, while my car was in it kept adding up this and that needed doing . As i was 55 miles away couldn`t keep nipping there to see how he was doing. Kept making excuses in the end they had the car " 2 WEEKS " and £900 later , Had car back and within 3 weeks car was leaking oil on to gearbox and exhaust . Took it to a m8 of a m8 and found they had not tightened rocker cover bolts correctly, oil pissing out . Had to have rocker cover skimmed and new gaskets... The tuner in question WOULD NOT compensate there shoddy work and i was left with another bill Took my car to Castle performance after that, and they kept my car going strong Will be more carefull who i let work on this one i got now m8
