They specialize in DSM's but carry very very cheap parts for most everything
Everything is like 5-10 dollars above wholesale right now as they are trying to get their name out

Check them out

thanks for the space

P.S. They are located in Colorado, so you wouldn't have to deal with shipping. They are only online right now, but they are working on getting a shop in denver in the near future.

Damn those are pretty good prices on some of the stuff... local is nice too... my question is how much inventory will they carry cuase it would be nice to have good prices localy where I could just go pick somthing up... but if they have to order all the parts before I get them than I would rather order it myself considering I can get the same prices ... just my $0.02

The prices on that turbogarage site are horrible.

A guy from COSR(95VR-4) just started a local shop, the site's not up yet, but you can email him for parts and prices. ryan@driven-performance.com

The Turbo Garage shop car isnt really tuned right now. We ran a 13.7 last night at test and tune at Bandy with a bad front O2 sensor. It was knocking at high boost and high rpm, so at the top of each gear I let off a little to reduce the knock. If we could get the DSMlink tuned it should do a lot better. Not too bad for a car with 150k miles on it anyway...haha. We are going to start a poll to see what people will go first...the tranny, or the motor. You can check out the list of mods on the shop car on our website. Just click "shop cars" and you can see what all it has.

Um, not really. Most fidanza flywheels ive seen are 450, and they have em for 300. You dont drive a DSM do you?

Actually the fywheels are $390..haha, but yes, they are significantly cheaper than most other online shops. We have spent several hours doing research on pricing. We know what the top online DSM parts suppliers are selling each part for. Our prices are right in the middle. Some of them may have things a little cheaper, and some may have them a little higher. Our plan is to make up for the small price difference by providing excellent cutomer service and support.

FYI

The prices you were quoted were $875 for the FMIC vs TurboGarage's $890. And $400 for 660cc injectors vs $425. If you were still interested give us a call or email. We'd be happy to help you or anyone else out. :)

You have to remember we don't currently have an inventory, and for local customers (i.e. most of the people on this board), we have to charge sales tax. This is included in most of our prices, which is why they're a little higher. Also, we have to ability to install and service almost all the parts we sell, plus we're available 24/7 to answer questions about anything DSM. I personally guarantee 100% satisfaction with your Turbo Garage purchase both from a quality and from a customer service standpoint.

Just a sidenote, if you don't like the website (which is a work in continual progess), you obviously haven't seen most of the other nationwide DSM vendor's...

Please email me if anyone needs anything (parts, service, advice...) and keep checking www.turbogarage.com for updates!

Thanks,

Your prices are awsome I think if you can keep a decent inventory and a shop service i think you will excel. Refine your website, not as bad as some DSM shops such as RRE, but you have prices that can compete. If I can weasle my way in't a DSM you will see my busines.

Thanks for the good words.

We're currently in the process of revamping the site so that each product is in a separate box with picture (each will have a uniform thumbnail size), brief description (with link to in-depth description), and pricing information. We'll also be adding shopping cart service in the near future. The current site was put together quickly so that we could start delivering parts for the summer import season. We're also planning on setting up a small booth at this summer's Import Drag events at Bandimere Speedway for any who are attending.

Also, although we're starting off with mainly DSM parts and service, we're hoping to expand into other AWD turbo performance such as WRX's and Evo's within a year. We may be doing some business in sportbike accessories as well.

Thanks,

I thought I'd go ahead and post that we're now "officially" open for business, including labor. You'll find that the labor prices are extremely reasonable. We also offer nearly any DSM performance upgrade available, at a price comparable or better than the best online prices. While we are trying to keep popular parts in stock, we are still building our inventory at the time being (we actually cleaned out our distributor of ACT 2600's...) and get most parts within a day or so (turbos and large items take a few more days). Check the website www.turbogarage.com for frequent updates over the course of the summer. We'll hopefully have a small booth set up at the import drag events this year as well, so be sure to stop by. Feel free to email me with any questions/inquiries. Thanks!
