Hey all,

Well it looks like the guys on the phones at SBR somehow got my order from 569 to an even 2000. I am just waiting for one more paycheck to seal the deal and was wondering if anyone had had any experience with them in the past. Good or bad, I just want to know what I would be getting myself into. Bad experiences please PM as to not start anything.


Thanks in advance.

PS Sorry to admins if this question doesn't jive with any other shop allegiances the board may have. Thanks for the space though.

I know people who have dealt with them, but i have not dealt with them. I've heard good things about them for everything they do EXCEPT head work. I heard their head porting is not as nice as other vendors, but other than that, i've heard good things about them dealing with anything else.

Theres a thread on tuners. It's got some good some bad. I personally, wouldn't deal with them. I know Nate Burgess got his turbo from them ... he's nb91Tsi on this board I believe.

I talked to them several times when I was purchasing my turbo. Really nice & helpfull. Sounded very profesional. I haven't ordered anything from them, so I can't say anything about their work.

I got my clutch and flywheel from them. I had it 3 days later. I just recently ordered some pistons and FRH intake mani from them, but am getting a little run around on the pistons. I can understand because they are custom pistons, but they charged me and told me they could get them. Overall I like them, it is just this piston thing. I would check out QPR first though or Elite. They seem to get some good prices on stuff too.

EVOIII 16G - 569 Shipped (No options, I figured I could get the flapper and porting elsewhere cheaper(QPR, Elite, friends))
SBR FMIC - 849
FMIC J-Pipe - 79
Walboro 255 - 109 (More than most E-Bay but want to not worry about any warranty issues)
Special Edition SAFC - 349 (I think)

I haven't seen any shipping charges yet but it is dollars shy of 2G...

Oh well.
