I am more than part to blame for that, coming late from ROC and shit (sorry Don).

dude I’m a picky mo-fo and this guy’s welds are INCREDIBLE! Better than a lot of that robotic shit you see people brag about on various products… truly quality not that I’m rocking any of his stuff on my car, but it’s very :cjerk: worthy.

I can’t say enough how much I was impressed with Don and Justin and the crew’s work on my car, I’d like to say I’m VERY knowledgeable about building cars, since I turned every bolt (except the last wiring nightmare that was dealt with by Chris White of 944 Enhancement - better him than me lol) on my Porsche, swapped the engine in and out twice (started / ran mint the first try) etc, but these guys did EVERYTHING exactly as I’d have intended / done myself if I had the place / time / tools still. I’m sooooo happy with the Z right now, it’s better than I’d hoped for by far.

The BAD news, which I’d refrained from posting as I didn’t want people getting the wrong idea, is that APS’s stupid design of the oil feed lines for the turbo has Don stuck with a bazillion extra hours to pretty much pull the motor AGAIN for a $0.30 crush washer that is (barely) leaking. We’re talking like, oh one drip ever 1-2 mins, but it’s def. leaking… the thing is, they are a very stand-up shopl and are taking care of it ASAP at no charge, something that I find not just admirable, but a rarity. Some might argue “well it should have been perfect in the first place” but with 28lb of shit in a 2lb engine bay, a VERY minor issue like this is not at all shocking - in fact with a project that took almost 6 months between engine pull, cage work, engine build, turbo kit assembly, engine install (not all of that was Hybrid, in fact, they were the ONLY shop that was on time and on/under budget and never held anything up!!!) it’s no small surprise to have a few kinks to work out.

I probably sound like a stupid fanboy at this point so I’ll STFU now, but yeah, I’m VERY happy that we have a shop like this in Upstate NY FINALLY.

As Don already stated…Thanx Dave…It is rarely posted of how far out of the way we go on every single job.
