The local turboshop I deal with carries turbosmart, Tial, HKS, Turbonetics and JGS. I have seen many of the Turbosmart gates in action...never seen one fail or not work like advertised.

I wont' use turbosmart at the shop simply because of their complete and utter lack of anything resembling customer service.. need a set of replacement Vband flanges for a gate.. you think they will reply , no way. You think any of their north american suppliers can get some or want to even bother , no way..

This is on top of the price point that was obviously set by some guy who owes back federal taxes in Aus. to the tune of millions..

Turbonetics, Tial and HKS/Trust are tops on my list... until i can take the time to design my own.
