I sold my stock wheels to a fellow near me driving a Subaru Legacy (I think it was a 03 - 05 model).

He had a turbo installed by AWDTuning and could not say enough positive things about them.

I just bought my diff through them. Pretty nice guys. They do a lot of Supras and have an FRS that they are developing a turbo kit for.

Also there is ATS Racing in Denton. Last I heard they were a dealer for Dynotronics who are located in New Braunfels. Don't quote me on that though.

I won't be getting my turbo kit for another 2 months at least. Then I have to save up for install and tune. I called them to ask the estimate, they said it was $900 install and $500 tuning/dyno.

Everyone shop has mixed reviews. People aren't honest when stuff happens *shrug* I've heard negative about every shop in the DFW area at one point or another. Just find one your comfortable with.

AWD did my Supercharger and I have not had any problems that were not due to my own fault.

i've heard more and "seen" more negative reviews and disasters from AWDtuning then i have heard good things , but of course i have heard good things about them to me it's really just the luck of the draw if you go to them.

This is actually true, the owner of ATS got a FRS for himself and has already developed a turbo for his car. I need to make a stop by the shop and talk with him for more information on the car and if they are going to make a kit to sale.

AWD does really good quality work. They've been around for a long time and know a lot about subaru motors. I think there will always be good and bad reviews about shops when you get as much traffic as they do. With that said.. Even with bad reviews they still get a lot of clients. Also I think some customers have ridiculous expectations. Just my .02

Mary and Keith are good ppl
