hey all! I know Ive been gone a long time, I hope you can forgive me. :( I left my job at Foreign Specialists to move to another shop that specializes in German and Italian car performance and tuning. We also do regular repairs and service but the main focus is on performance. Right now I am the lead mechanic and I get to work on and drive all the cars I dream about owning. :cool: Its a great gig if you can get it. Here are some pics of my recent adventures:



this 997 twin turbo came in to get an ECU upgrade, turbo headers, and Fabspeed exhaust. All said and done, this car is deep into the 600hp territory. Its a blast to drive and you cant help but grin and giggle when the boost comes on.

 



this is a brand new Audi RS4. It got a milltek exhaust. This car has so much low end torque, when you release the clutch, the wheels break loose and the damn traction control takes over makes the car jerk a few times. solution? TC OFF.

 



when it rains, it pours. 2 996s with the GT3 kit. one is a C2, the other a C4. Both have the carbon fiber interiors. The C4 has a B&M shifter and K&N intake system.

 



brand new A6. KW coilovers.

 



this is what you have to do in order to swap turbos on the TT S4. The K03s were swapped for K04s. final hp figure in the 500s. one fast wagon!

 



theres always an exception to the rule. This is a Shelby GT500. piece of crap, promptly sold.

 



S line TT (3.2l VR6 with quattro), shrick cams.



NSX, comptech supercharger.

 

So thats my life so far. Hope you enjoyed the pics.
