They've been around that long I'd be surprised if you'd have any issues with them.

My car has a 1.9 8v TSR engine fitted in it. I didnt get the transplant done myself, the previous owner did, but I contacted them to verify the honesty of the engine, its age etc…
They were hugely courteous had masses of info and even offered me a free service.
I got the engine running today (no issue with engine but with fuelling) and it is a smooth and steady, looking forward to putting it through its paces at a later date.
Hope that helps your choice

There's got to be a few members on here that have used them in the past.

Pros:
They know what they are doing
They are happy to oblige and are flexible
Rates are decent
Did i mention they know what they are doing?
Good quality work
Cons:
They are very busy so it can be difficult to get hold of them sometimes, but when you do they are all good.
Make sure you agree the scope and book the job in, they are busy and if you need a lot of other work done, your car goes to the back of the queue behind the other booked jobs which is only fair and totally understandable to the other customers who booked their car in.
On the whole - I would definitely use them again if i needed to.
1980 Series 1 GTI (gone now .. what a mistake selling her!)
1979 Series 1 LD - the Mandarin Dragon … gone as well. oh dear.

No probs I've been thinking about using them myself in the future. Any ideas how much their conversions cost?
In all my paperwork there is a receipt for a touch under £1000 for the 1.9 8v engine in mine, as a unit, so assume the original was swapped to donor another at some point…

How's that engine Simon? Does it feel much quicker than a standard 1.8 GTI?

I had a 1.8T CONVERSION done with them, bam engine code, I couldn't be more happier with the car now it's finished, they where very helpful, friendly and well to be honest, just great all round, I'd defiantly recommend them, I live in Heathrow area, and there in Somerset, but that's the only place my car will go to. 10 out 10.

If you get stuck let me know mate. It's fairly simple. There's a how to guide in the Newbie section.
There are too many online users to list.
