the other shops just put on the turbos and **** and didn't bother checking if the engine could handle it.
the guy is now building new crankshaft, pistons and stuff so the engine doesn't blow.
In his 7 years of his shop he never blew up a engine.
I mean he had 5 R34 and 2 R33 sitting there with 600 to 1300 hp which have 30.000+ miles with no problems.
Edit: exhaust is installed.
He is impressed with the welding but installation was a pain in the *** apparently.
no new gaskets for the LTH for the engine side which will need new ones since the old ones would probably leak. the bolts are the standard stuff and he always uses these special ones that completely lock up so they cant shake loose. He is afraid that there might be a risk that they would start to loosen up after 20.000+ miles.
alignment was something he had to fix too but he fixed it with washers and some other stuff. in the beginning the right pipe was about a half centimeter off which is quite noticeable to say the least.
in short terms he likes the quality but the installing was alot more work than expected.
