If you know what he's telling you do is wrong and its gonna do some serious damage to an engine you wouldnt do it. (well i wouldnt).

at the end of the day if they were doing it wrong and they knew what they were doing was wrong how can they expect to have a job for much longer if there ripping people off for thousands of pounds.
It will come as no surprise that I fully agree with the above!!

I think some of the numerous EA employees would be able to tell us what really went on and if they genuinely say they did some good genuine honest work there lets hear it!!

I cannot believe that all of the people on here saying they had bad service or were ripped off would be making it up. There seems to be a lot of people who wouldnt have gone back there compared to those who would.

I for one would like to hear off those who worked there! I mean they are not exactly going to stick up for Captain Hills who as always, thought of himself and jumped ship as he steered HMS EA towards the rocks!!

I havent got any decent pics that I can post up here, and Im not a member of photobucket and havent got the time to learn it lol. If anybody wants some pics I can email them! If anybody has some pics of my car from a show they are more than welcome to post them up here!

Efe's car is a different matter. And it's probably none of my business. Only Efe can say whats up with his car. I would like to know as he is a really nice guy. I understand that it is at another tuners premises being worked on. I could be wrong.

The fact is, my car was used to showcase his company - I even lent it him to take Performance Ford out in it when they featured his company. When I fell out with him, Paul then turned to Efe to promote his company. As I see it I had exhausted any use he had for me or my car. Especially when I wanted him to fix a totally destroyed engine. So much for "we guarantee all work". It should have said "we dont guarantee shit!"

One day, I would like to read Efe's mind to know what really went on and if he felt he was fairly treated and charged for the work that EA did. Between me and Efe, Paul Hills really made a lot of money just on those two cars! But its really none of my business and Efe will probably tell me that!

I had no idea they had such a bad repuation. I have a 450 bhp engine built elsewhere but tuned / tweaked and run on the rollers with engine advantages. Am i in trouble or is it just the engine building they are bad at?

WOH dam am late on this thread. I never realised they had closed WOOOHOOOO!!!

Spent £5500 (i have recipts to prove ) there only to have it blow up after the first month BUT even funnier they kept the car 9 months so i assumed they were doing a solid job.
Poor engine build by the joeys there and even worse mapping of management by Paul.

Had to get the engine rebuild and then mapped by Chris Todd.
