Pine apples
 
so in my ongoing search for a shop to rebuild my engine I have found a place in oregon called pineapple racing. Sounds like a good deal. 5k+ for an oil system upgrade and new rotor housings and ofcourse all seals. Thr price even includes a heavy duty water seal. Has anyone been to them for a rebuild?

When checking the reputation of a Rotary Business you go to the feedback section and also post your question in that "Regional" section. :-)

5K plus will land you a brand new engine.

pineapple is ok, i would go with someone else though.

like maybe, rick engman.

rotoryresurrection may be cheaper but you basically get a brand new engine from rob. and rob will back his motors up. hes a great guy and engine builder.

For $5k you are getting new housings and that is about $1100-1200 of the cost right there. New housings are the most important part to replace with new when doing a rebuild. Then you have about another $1k? for the rebuild kit (hard and soft seals). Keep these things in mind when comparing companies to rebuild. Compare apples to apples.

Hmmm. this is true. They also use fd springs so thats a plus.

Hahaha! Oh man you beat me to it. Lol:icon_tup:

Someone just told me this: most oil system modifications are bullshit, especially if you have a turbo motor. it can and probably will cause more issues of oil burning through the turbos right off or down the road. the more you raise the oil pressure the more it has to be detuned going through the turbos or it will be forced past the carbon seals and cause damage to the turbo seals.

Can someone clarify please?
