How do you feel about them? Was he good to deal with? Was the price right? What did you guys do (mod) to your k16's, I am looking to mod them however not looking to break the bank I know the AMS bilet wheel is really the way to go but if i recall the turbos alone are in the 5 k realm, I dont want to spend that kind of money right now.

I have heard they do quality work. You do know you will have to tune your ECU. Try Tony @ EPL http://www.eplabs.net/ he can also help you with any specific needs you are trying to accomplish.

For reference, the AMS billet K16 go for $5K and you get turbos, upgraded and adjusted WG actuators, 5 bar FPR, turbo gasket kit, and EPL tune for that setup. Send in your cores for $500 refund, so technically it's $4500 for all of that.

Based on what AMS is saying above you'd spend close to that with the 16/16g's

LOL did you know , basicly all tuners send their turbos to Blouch to get all the work done, so yes they do fantastic work. i would sell those save some more and just get the 18gs/k 24s

There are soooo many post about Blouch here that it's no secret who is building the turbos...

So do you plan on tuning the car yourself, since you are part of the "industry"?

I don't think it was meant as a low blow at all. l would guess that most of the 16g 18g and 20g upgrades on this board have been done by Blouch. If anything i'd say it was one of the more knowledgeable members on the board trying to provide you with a quality piece of information.

Oh, and both my 18g's and 20g's were done by Blouch I mean Protomotive wait I mean Blouch wait .........

Wait lol it was Bobby my business partner who did the first ever known 18g and 20g upgrade and employed Blouch to do the R&D...
and that was years ago... he cooperated with Protomotive and rest is history...
