Of course its a little harder to say that now like when I do things on a BMW that requires a computer to accept the new part. Today even after a battery install you are suppose to program the computer to accept it!
I paid a 'European' shop with a 'Porsche trained' mechanic $100/hr to do my IMSB replacement and the valves got bent. It took them another month to fix it!:troll: They said they had 80 hrs into by the time they were done. And I tell everyone I can about it! Then they forgot to tighten all of the clutch cover bolts so I had to redo the clutch job 6-7000 miles later!
