I have'nt personally had any problems myself and think the parts he has provided for me are as good as anywhere else I have seen

Its so easy to slag of a tuner, I personally have a poor opinion of Power Engineer due to an experience about 5 years ago however I am unable to make any statement of worth regarding them today simply because the majority of staff have changed and I feel its unfair to tarnish these people with the same brush.

Jano has always given me his honest advice and obviously has a passion for the cars he works on, he has never tried to sell me anything, the same can be said for Tony from Turbosystems.
Both these people have treated me very very well and I have no hesitation in recomending them... likewise I have no wish to condem any other company and hope everyone has a positive experience whoever they use

The performance industry is like religion, we have fanatics who thinks the path they follow is the right one and condem everyone who chooses another path, the sad thing is that peoples reputations and lively hood can be destroyed by loose lips, gossip and forum postings.... its like the recent thread regarding streetracers.

Personally I obtained a great deal of respect for the owner during that thread when Gordon1 stated with regards to Turbo CVH's the following :-
i have said that 200 is as much as i would push a std one with out knowing the engine
https://passionford.com/forum/viewto...=street+racers

In these words there appears to be a person looking for modest gains and reliability, this is someone who from my perspective is considering the customer more than big HP figures and a short engine life. No wonder many happy customers jumped to the defence of this company with principles like that

As much as he gets slated i don't think he has any intentions of ripping people off.

A couple of years ago before i joined this forum or even knew he was a tuner i bought a part off him that he had for sale on ebay. Arrived promptly, i don't think you have any need to worry

I've never had any probs what so ever with Jano

I bought a magnex zorst of him and it came within 2 days of me sending him the money

Top quality service I'd say

And the cars he has built speak for themselves A1 quality

And he's always been very glad to advise me on any aspect of ford tuning

Dude. Im so sorry for the time you have waited for some parts. Sadly its out of my hands and in the hands of Laser Cutters, Engineers and welders.

i have not told you that i have sent anything you asked me to send what i had, which my reply was that its pointless without all the parts as you will need them all to be able to bolt them on.

My components are made by skilled engineers who work for major companys like Tate&Lyle, Kellogs, marmite to name a few. My small jobs that cost next to nothing to have done, does not come top in line for these people. They do what they can for me when they can. This is the reason that my components are made to very high standards, but also very cheap when compared to other companys/tuners who take the piss and make you the customer pay way over price for some parts which dont even work 100% or looks shat etc..

Now taking into account that i do work on my own and make sure that every part is 100% otherwise it will be on my head and everyone on here will actually have something to talk about unlike they do at the mo


Batrst

I know its not the point but i have offered you a full refund since the first time you called and everytime after. If i could do anything else to make it quicker or for you to get your parts i would of done so pal. This is not a hobbie for me this is my full time work, i also have other people waiting for parts such as Ahmed @ Grove garage, Paul Hills, + 3 customers.

If you have any issues regarding parts/service i would appreciate it if you PM me or talk to me in person without having the need to bad mouth me via internet forums.

if you need to contact me the number is 07984 071 567

Regards
Jano
