Default They are 20 minutes from my house.

Its a pretty small shop. Pretty nice guys, but they knew nothing about my TT.

Default Its like a crappy *** chip that they use to sell(might still sell it)....

It is not a good chip at all. I heard that chip turns off all the alerts in the car so if you car is about to explode, it won't even warn you.

I guess if you just buying a crate engine, it should be fine.

Default Great Shop-They rebuilt my G-Lader (Corrado G60 Supercharger)

I had very good service with the staff there. My supercharger received the "full monty" treatment and it ran hard and long pushing 15lbs of boost. They also sell Lysholm superchargers which are excellent (and loud too).
