Default Best Place For Rs Fuelling Setup Near Edinburgh?

hey all fitted new lifters so needing the fueling sorted out on idle etc as used to be solid. Anyone recommend somewhere very close as cant drive it will have to be towed or trailered. Anyone know if extreme motorsport can handle this or does it need a fordy specialist?

tbh i'd say tow/trailer it to ava in glasgow,
i'm not they're biggest fan but i've had several escort turbo's in to them and they always do a good job on them,
alan realy does know his stuff with them

As said, for my RS Turbo they were always bang on... but I've heard a few bad stories about jobs they've done on jap stuff. If I ever got an old Ford again then I'd probably still take it there.


Cheers,
Grant

Im sure i was told recently that John Muir who use to own MV Turbos near Dumfermline , has started doing work on cars again. I used him when i first got my old cosworth and he was top notch.

John from MV Turbo's has started doing a bit of work again but think he is concentrating on Cossie's....will try and get a contact number for you.

Was gonna suggest AVA cos did wonders with my last one but if you've had a bad experience doubt you'll want to go back. Think Sitech is next best bet.
