Finally got car back from shop 398@23psi

[WesternMD_VR4]

For those of you that remember my car hasn't been idling right which made it almost impossible to drive and has been this way since fall (and spending alot of $$ at another shop last fall to fix this idle only to have them F it up). after getting the head bebuilt @ TPG Tuning In Blairsville Pa the car idles up no problem made good power on my setup and I couldn't be happier. Now I just have to take the destroyed head ( valves were sunk so far in and the guides were messed up stripped bolts etc etc) back to the original shop and try to get my money back. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

What does sunk in valves mean?

 

[WesternMD_VR4]

the guy told me the valves were misaligned and they were "sunk" into the seats

 

[GSTwithPSI]

Sounds like the seats were possibly ground improperly, but I've never heard the term sunk valves. It really sucks having to pay a shop to troubleshoot and fix your car, because you are pretty much at their mercy. I'm glad you got it taken care of though. You running V3?

 

[WesternMD_VR4]

Yea it's on V3

Hey now, I'm good to people.

It definitely makes me happy to see my old car put down some good hp, I am glad it ended up with someone who loves the car as much as I did. Can't wait to hopefully see this thing at the oc awd meet.
