Title: Reputable company for engine upgrade?
Post by: geordie56 on November 08, 2010, 07:09:17 pm

Hi, as the title suggests i may be looking into a full engine rebuild with uprated freeflowing head and big turbo, does anyone here know a reputable company to do this? Cheers in advance.

Statlers are not to far from you. They have nothing but a first class rep. PM Hurdy he can help you.  :happy2:

iirc hurdy said stadtlers have a few S3 engines kicking around the place, so one could be built up out of the car and then dropped in after built to avoid your motor being off the road for a prolonged period

Alright Sean, I'd recommend Ben Williamson @ Revo HQ, used to run AV Performance, did engine rebuild on my cousin's Big Turbo TT, absolutley epic.
