    Hello fargostreet peps
    This is my first post and I'm hoping you can help me with this problem.
    I have a blue 2000 audi S4 and it hates me. :icon_shaking:

    So i think my turbo blew on the way home from work today. Huge smoke show for everyone behind me :bom:
    I need a good place to bring my car ASAP that can pull the engine and replace the turbos!
    Book is 18 hours plus i want a new clutch put in, motor mounts, trans mounts installed along with new downpipes and exhaust. Possibable new valve cover gaskets also.
    I have all the parts i just need a decent shop that isnt going to rip me off.
    Any suggestions?

    Sports car enginering?
    Tint masters? (I need tint also)

    Thanks,
    Kyle

        How busy are they? I want to bring it in this week and get it back in a week or so.
        They will laugh at the cheap Ebay exhaust i bought! They do good work from what I've seen.
        Thanks for the suggestion!

            It will probably take a week for me to get the upgraded turbos in the mail.
            Any more suggestions?

                  I've already been down the path a few times and its not very fun. When you get the parts check back w/ me and i'll let ya know where we're @.

                    Cool, I'll give you a call when i get everything. I did the timing belt a month ago so i could do the shitty part if you like and i can put it back together once the engine is in. Its just to damn cold to do it in my garage.

                      Did you do another S4? I've only seen a few around town. I didnt know if there were any stage 3 in fargo other than the yellow one on SLD's website that was sold awhile ago.

                        I dont know when they can get to it. But Midland Diesel can do it. But they are pretty backed up at the moment. They sell turbos, and install them and i know they have done turbos on a number of Audi/VW.

                        PM me for:
                        Sandblasting(I use glass beads)
                        Diesel repairs or performance products.

                          If it were mine it'd go to sportscar engineering. Dave has done a great job on everything I've brought him. He may not be interested in the job, but you should certainly call. I don't know of anyone else in town qualified to work on German cars (apart from Valley, who I'm sure you've already ruled out for cost reasons...)

                          I've got a VAG-COM if you end up needing to borrow one for anything.

                          I hope you're putting K04s on it?

                            I would say give Tintmasters a call

                              I'd say your first try should be Sports Car Engineering in Moorhead. I've taken my volvo to him for the past couple years and he does awesome work. The only Problem is Dave isn't really keen into modifying cars( Even though he used to race profesionaly back in the days). Its worth a call to there though.

                                Yes im putting in K04's :icon_cheers: I cant wait till its done. Also clutch master stage 3 clutch, down pipes and dual exhaust are going on.
                                Thanks for the offer on the VAG-COM, but i already have one also. You almost need one if you have a VW/Audi.

                                I'll try calling dave on monday since i wont have all the parts till late next week.

                                        I have a 3000gt SL not a VR4 and a Izuzu trooper that looks simular to a landcruizer. It this Matt that worked at Tri-State?

                                        Update: My PCV was frozen so it blew oil into the intake so it just looked like a blown turbo. I plan on installing the K04 turbos myself this summer.
                                        Thanks for the suggestions though!
