years ago I went in castle with a problem with my m8's orion injection, they were dam right rude and basicly told us to fook off they don't work on crap like them..
What Eion (the owner of castle) didn't know was that I had a cossie and was about to spend quite a few bob on a stage 3 conversion and other bits and bobs and it was a test...
Castle failed and turbosystems got my money instead...

Are all these negatives about Castle from the 'sheep brigade' or have you actually been there and had your car serviced/tuned???

Both Andy and I used them for a while and had no probs whatsoever with either the RS500 or the Esc Cos.

I always found them to be good they set my 1.6 cvh up sweet as a nut but i will say a few years back they were reluctant to do a 2.1 zetec turbo conversion and wanted me to do 1.9cvh so i had to look for serviecs elsewhere

My saff has recently had a brand new stage 3 built by castle, the engine is fantastic and so is the service, no problems.
