Well last time you guys heard from my I bought a new xB and decided to turbo the hatch. Well the xB is good but I took a wrong turn with the hatch. I bought some SSautoshit from ebay and pretty much regreted it. Nothing fit right, it sat wierd, all of thier downpipes didnt fit, basically it was just a mess. So I sold all that to someone else and purchased a InlinePRO turbo kit through my new job Yes thats right, im changing jobs AGAIN. Well I got my virginia state inspection licence last month and it has opened so many new doors for me. Ive had people call me to ask me if I want to work for them.
I had a job offer I pretty much couldnt turn down. Brauning Motorsports based out of NOVA and Colonial Beach, VA offered me a job doing maintance/mechanic work and state inspects. Pay isnt as much more than what im making now but the benefits and job in the long run will be so much more. I get all performance parts at COST, hook ups on tuning, fabrication, and advice from the 2004 NDRA World Champions all motor class.

well they do have a location in NOVA, and the machining prices will vary from them to our location in colonial beach because they use a different machine shop vs. what we use. I know for hot tanking is cheap, like 40 bucks or something.

word sounds reasonable... so are you actually working at one yet? or do you just get hookups?
