Shop for Turbo Upgrade/Replacement

takrdown · 01-22-2014, 02:10 PM

Can anyone recommend a shop that they have either brought their car to for a turbo replacement or upgrade. I'm getting ready to do a Vargas Turbo upgrade and I would prefer to bring it to a shop that has some experience with doing this.

Thanks!

Rough costs involved would be great too!

I'm not sure about the cost of doing it, but AUTOcouture in Fair Lawn, NJ is a very reputable shop. It may be a little far from your location, but the quality of work they perform is outstanding. I know there is a 335i getting a RB turbo upgrade now. I bring my car to them for all my upgrades. Check them out on facebook or give them a call to get a quote. Like I said, it may be far from your location, but it may be worth the drive. Good Luck!

I'd recommend vinny ten racing out on long island, but that's a trip and a half for you.

VAC in Philly would probably be my choice. If they install other people's parts, I do not know... Might be haul for you. But hey, make a trip out of it!
