I am pretty sure that tim charges 2.5k INC vat.   From my experience, Tim, Geff and chris are all excellent work and value.  You will have to be patient with Tim as he is busy due to being excellent value for money.

As for a 2 year warranty,  stick a boost controller on your new rotecknics engine, wind it up,  when it goes bang i am sure they will not rebuild it for free.  

A few years ago Pip at WGT built and fitted an engine for me.  It was a pretty stock TII.  2 months down the line the engine had a problem.  Pip rebuilt it again and charged me another 600 quid.  At the time this was nearly half the price of the rebuild again.  Pip said that i had given the engine a hard time,  although i had not done anything he had an issue with it still cost me.

If you have a standard car and want a standard rebuild,  then the extra warranty would be fine if you wern\'t paying for it,  but then again,  if its a stock engine and your not going to modify it,  Tim\'s rebuild will last just as long.  I have a feeling rotechnics warranty is only valid if they do all the work to your car but i may be wrong.

At the end of the day,  a lot people want to make there cars go faster which as a general rule will have an effect on the life of the engine, if mods are done badly, the engine will be more likely to fail and an engine builder is unlikely to rebuild it again for free if its not down to him, and why should he!  

If you want to modify your car and you cant do any of the work yourself, then for peace of mind, use the same tuner for mods and engine and you wont have any problems with mods that have been done.

I have heard many bad stories about hurley, but had no experience with them.

The best way of all is to bite the bullet and build it yourself,  there is nothing more satisfying, especially when its fast at the end of it!!!

i could not agree with you more lad! there is nothing more satisfying than taking the plunge just like plenty of americans on the us site and doing it all yourself BUT i think there is a lot to take into consideration with tolerances especially and also the risk of it going pop a few hundred miles down the road..have you built your own motor?  believe me i have thought deeply about doing it myself, but i get turned off with the worrys of the engine going bang or missing something silly costing more money down the line.  I think you need to know all the gotcha`s and tricks before tackling it yourself.
