DO you have a VR4 also and maybe a landcruiser or something along them lines?
I have a 3000gt SL not a VR4 and a Izuzu trooper that looks simular to a landcruizer. It this Matt that worked at Tri-State?
Update: My PCV was frozen so it blew oil into the intake so it just looked like a blown turbo. I plan on installing the K04 turbos myself this summer.
Thanks for the suggestions though!

Sweden's answer to the BMW 3 Series.
Volvo's S60 brings the Swedish firm's safety legacy and standards to consumers for whom the S40 is too small and the S80 too big. Not surprisingly, the S60 also fits between those models in price -- starting at $27,125 but running to more than $36,000 for a loaded S60 AWD.
Volvo's S60 offers an alternative to BMW's 3 Series sedans. S60 combines the S80's stylish shape with all those safety features that have made Volvo famous over the years.
Four models are available: 2.4 ($27,125); 2.4T ($31,625); T5 ($33,375); and 2.4T AWD ($33,375). The big difference between the first three models is the difference in horsepower; the AWD (all-wheel drive) is new for 2002.
The 2.4 comes with a 2.4-liter five-cylinder engine (yes, five cylinders) that produces 168 horsepower and 170 pounds-feet of torque.
The 2.4T uses a low-pressure turbocharger to generate 197 horsepower and 210 pounds-feet of torque; and that torque comes on at a much lower engine speed (1800 rpm instead of 4500 rpm), giving this model much better acceleration away from those intersections.
The T5 uses a high-pressure turbo to produce 247 horsepower and 243 pounds-feet of torque for quick, turbocharged throttle response.
The AWD uses the 197-horsepower 2.4T engine. When Volvo introduced this model in September, it was broadly suggested that the 247-horsepower T5 engine would become available in the AWD, most likely in less than a year.

If it were mine it'd go to sportscar engineering. Dave has done a great job on everything I've brought him. He may not be interested in the job, but you should certainly call. I don't know of anyone else in town qualified to work on German cars (apart from Valley, who I'm sure you've already ruled out for cost reasons...)I've got a VAG-COM if you end up needing to borrow one for anything.
I hope you're putting K04s on it?
Yes im putting in K04's :icon_cheers: I cant wait till its done. Also clutch master stage 3 clutch, down pipes and dual exhaust are going on.
Thanks for the offer on the VAG-COM, but i already have one also. You almost need one if you have a VW/Audi.
I'll try calling dave on monday since i wont have all the parts till late next week.

I've already been down the path a few times and its not very fun. When you get the parts check back w/ me and i'll let ya know where we're @.
Did you do another S4? I've only seen a few around town. I didnt know if there were any stage 3 in fargo other than the yellow one on SLD's website that was sold awhile ago.
Cool, I'll give you a call when i get everything. I did the timing belt a month ago so i could do the shitty part if you like and i can put it back together once the engine is in. Its just to damn cold to do it in my garage.
Ouch! Is that a no?
Dont want to take a walk on the dark side? You might like it
It will probably take a week for me to get the upgraded turbos in the mail.
Any more suggestions?
How busy are they? I want to bring it in this week and get it back in a week or so.
They will laugh at the cheap Ebay exhaust i bought! They do good work from what I've seen.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Hello fargostreet peps
This is my first post and I'm hoping you can help me with this problem.
I have a blue 2000 audi S4 and it hates me. :icon_shaking:
So i think my turbo blew on the way home from work today. Huge smoke show for everyone behind me :bom:
I need a good place to bring my car ASAP that can pull the engine and replace the turbos!
Book is 18 hours plus i want a new clutch put in, motor mounts, trans mounts installed along with new downpipes and exhaust. Possibable new valve cover gaskets also.
I have all the parts i just need a decent shop that isnt going to rip me off.
Any suggestions?
Sports car enginering?
Tint masters? (I need tint also)
Thanks,
Kyle
