Thumbs up Thanks Might Mouse and Turbo Tech!

So I call MM up because my new set up was smoking. i checked the motor and it was perfect leakdown so i moved to the turbos which i knew mm had a smoke issue with his old set up.
He said it was in need of a rebuild. I said good, maybe mine is to and that is my prob.
He told me to call Tracy at TT and talk to him. so i did. i 2nd dayed them MA to WA were tt is located and have been a pain in the *** ever since. Sorry TT just a little crazy to race this weekend!
they said they could get the parts and get the rebuild done by monday and to me by wednesday. they said one turbo was ok just freshen it up the other was BAD!!! Also the bad one was a good chance of bad smoke! Thank god, i dont want to pull my new motor yet so i called everyday 4 times a day( sorry again).
I just got off the phone with tracy, he says if he sends then 2nd day i will have them thursday. he garrenteed that. but those bastereds said wednesday! (jk, not mad)
i said no good. over night them. so hopefully if all goes right i will have them tommorow and installed as well as the rest of my car after work wed night worst case thursday. just in time to retune at ESP friday night and race on sat.
Wish me luck.
Thanks for the input MM and thatnks TT for the help (as long as it makes it on time) if not i'll be back to say so tommorow night.

Glad to hear it..... I have had nothing but the best dealings with George and Tracy at TT.... those guys are always willing to talk to me and answer my questions... they actually call me back when i leave messages and i get parts from them when they say I will.
Goodluck with it Brad.... hope it all works out
