Title: Storm Developments
Post by: toddy98274 on 07 September 2005, 14:42

Hi

Anyone had any dealings with Storm Developments, I saw theyre link on the homepage and liked the look of theyre replacement standard engine or performance engine.

If anyone has any opinions on them before I make a trip over there it would be much appreciated.

Cheers

My mate had his Mk3 VR6 engine rebuilt by them - he was happy with the work, but I believe there costs are a little high.

Hi Madone

Did he have a look at other garages etc then, Im sure my engine could do with a full overhaul and was considering just getting a replacement refurbed engine but I am not having much luck finding a specialist garage to do the work.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

OK sounds like Storm Developments is one to miss, i thought it might be reputable seen as theres a link to them off the main golfgti website.

Im based in Aylesbury in Bucks so any suggestions of decent garages round here that could possibly do me an engine refurb

Cheers
