    Brian and the crew up at EPG are some of the best guys in atlanta to work with; i don't rock many sponsors in my personal sig but \/ EPG
    Whats up with eurotechs website? do they need another experienced web programmer like myself to finish it for them? is brian the owner of EPG? i should talk to them to see if i can contract this webdesign for them...

    aii here is the scoop...all three: VW city/ EPG/ BarryPalmer all quoted me the same price on the timing belt job....$800.. i went w/ Barry's cuz he could fit me in this week opposed to the VW city and EPG which could only sched me to drop the car off late next week...my car is in desperate need of some attention so i went ahead and decided to go w/ the Barry Palmer...

    during the VAG scan he tells me i need a new coilpack, some new plugs, a new DV, and fuel pump, along with the timing belt kit that i had orignally planned on having done Does this seem right that all this can go bad at the same time?? or is this guy trying to make some $$ off me?? either way im probaably gonna write it off as an expense but that money is still coming out of my pocket and wont be seen till next tax season...anyone have anything to say about barrypalmers shop i should worry about?? he seemed like a pretty honest guy but you never know these days...

    Look at my thread about my swap and I got a huge quote from him but most of it was parts so I saved about $1500 by buying my own parts from www.PAP-parts.com they had everything i needed.

    Well guys i got my car back last week..i did drop a bit of chedder..but man ill tell you what...my car is running stronger then it ever has...Mike(y?) sure does know his ish....whats funny is i see a guy wearing an EPG teeshirt gettin his 'Rado' worked on kinda caught me offgaurd, i dunno if that guy worked for EPG or if he was a customer of theirs at one point and they gave him a shirt or what??...but i guess BarryPalmer and his son really know VW's either way...i should have asked the guy if he was from EPG that was standing there and whats up about their website..now i need to find someone to put in some springs/shocks/ and tackle the control arms while its all apart....but either way a good experience...thanks for the plug
