I wouldn't use anyone else mate.

 

EDIT - I've just had a wee look and there doesn't seem to be an address for them on their website :lol: They're in St Agnes mate, and they have courtesy cars if you book in advance.

How much power? Are you going to do any of the work yourself? New or second hand? How deep are your pockets? :)

 

But I'd say 2 grand at least for parts and remap. Most of the second hand chargers I've seen for sale recently have been going for £1500-2k and then a remap will be needed.

Cheers for all the info guys!

 

How odd is that a tuner that is'nt 300 miles from me, makes a refreshing change!

 

I'm not sure i'd be confident enough to undertake the work myself, i'll have to get reading to see how complicated it all is!

Where would be the best places to look for good secondhand chargers or turbos?

Ok curiosity has finally got the better of me - what's the point building such a crazy spec VR when Jersey is about 24 square inches and restricts you from driving any quicker than my nan can walk with a full load of shopping?

 

I'm not for one minute 'questioning' it as it's your car, your money etc but it must just be really frustrating more than anything ... ?

assuming the vast majority of that 2k mileage was spent on the mainland stretching its legs :)
