Feedback: (0) TURBOS UNLEASHED experience
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In April of '06 I drove to Phoenix from Dallas to have my leaking Garrett turbocharger replaced by Chris Wright of TURBOS UNLEASHED. The experience was so positive that I chose to return to Phoenix in February of '07 to have my entire 135 CID 2.2L 4 5-speed w/Turbo II engine replaced by Chris rather than seek a closer (Houston) option.
Chris' innovative ideas and mechanical expertise were crucial in giving me the confidence to use him for my engine replacement. He did a complete performance engine rebuild including forged pistons; a performance cylinder head package install; he replaced the transmission seals, installed a new kevlar clutch, resurfaced the flywheel and removed and reinstalled the engine and transmission.
Chris suggested converting to a 3" exhaust system to improve my gas mileage, which proved to be correct! Now I have virtually no back pressure
and a much smoother ride.
He was always answering my questions and went above the call of duty to
make sure the smallest details were explained and professionally covered. I would not hesitate to recommend him for his product knowledge, hospitality and willingness to make sure his customer gets the best possible job done.
And there wasn't a shade tree in sight!
This car is an '89 LeBaron which I am trying to restore, piece-by-piece, because I have no car payments and want it to last for a long time. It's a 5-speed convertible which is very collectible and worth keeping on the road. I'm new to the Mopar post site - please excuse the lack of information. If anyone in the Irving,TX area wants to see the engine Chris built and installed,
e-mail me @ <mooseisloose44@verizon.net>.
I'd be happy to arrange a viewing of his work.
