Hey guys,

My M10 engine is on the way out. I am going to need to rebuild/swap it. I am seriously considering turboing the engine (along with megasquirt and the works), but I am a bit worried about tuning and reliability.

While I know of great vintage mechanics as well as Turbo tuners, I don't know of guys that are well versed in both. It is a major component that is holding me back.

I was hoping that some of you guys could chime in. I hear great things about VSR in NH, but I am afraid I would have to give them the rights to my firstborn for a project like this. Any suggestions you guys have would be really appreciated.

I suggest you don't listen to a lot of internet conjecture but only to people who have actually used the people they mention. BTDT.

Regardless, I've heard good things about Korman

Seeing as how, besides the original poster, you and I are the only ones on this thread, I'm willing to take that comment quite badly.

I have a turbo. I love the car but the turbo aspect is a pia and a really different animal. A lot of people act more nonchalantly then they should regarding this situation. I feel I did and I have watched others make mistakes as well. If you own a turbo and have used the people you mentioned successfully then your comment is appropriate. I couldn't tell if that was the case and so I was just pointing out that many times on the Internet people relate information that is not first hand. In this instance I would exercise caution. No disrespect meant.
