Sorry if this is already general knowledge, I'm relatively new to the community but know of both vendors well, and didn't know this was happening.

The announcement is dated today, so I'd bet it's not common knowledge.

WoW! Thanks for posting this news.

Steve Dinan sold, Will Turner now sells. Looks like the guys have made enough money to focus on motorsports and not have to deal with the daily headaches of running a business.
Best wishes to Will and ECS, have had nothing but great experiences with both companies.

Will turner is still going to stay as the president of tuner motorsports. This buyout gives more resources for r&d, and money to move forward.

I have bought a bunch of stuff from Turner over the years, and enjoyed watching them since the GrandAm/Rolex days. Hopefully everything stays the same. Nothing but great things to say about TMS.

I hope this makes shipping cheaper from ECS

The cost of going through customs. We have family in Canada, and shipping is always expensive to sent them something.

I was in the middle of buying some stuff from turner during the announcement and the sales rep I was talking to said nothing is changing. They will still be selling parts, just a new parent company.

Zombie1 · 07-08-2015, 12:36 PM

both companies are top notch in my book really great service.

mike@x-ph.com · 07-08-2015, 04:19 PM

Saw that today. If i am not mistaken, they have been in close partnership for years now. This should not change much in how both these companies currently operate.
