Wow, you really went all out. I just looked at the kit for 800$. That's not a bad price, if I was shooting for that power that would be a great investment.

Ross, I never had my R154 rebuilt at Driftmotion so I cannot say. I just bought most of my rebuild/conversion parts from them. Two years ago I used SpeedForSale in Alpharetta, GA (I was in FL at the time). I drove the transmission and rebuild parts to them, dropped it all off and stayed with a friend for a few days while they did the job. A few days later they swapped out my W58 and installed the new trans.

However, in my case I scheduled with them WELL in advance and it was at a time when they had no big vehicle events to attend. They had other customer cars in their shop but they were not swamped. And they also knew I was going to be staying in town during the rebuild and wanted them to swap the transmission for me. I think this contributed to the short window of total time everything took. I'd asked them when a good time for them was to do it that way and they gave me an appointment that worked in between their bigger customer jobs. I think I waited 1-2 months after my initial call to them and at the time my schedule was flexible enough for it.

With Driftmotion the only rebuild work I've had them do was my TT Auto LSD pumpkin rebuild and ratio change. In this case I also drove my two pumpkins to them (I was in CA at this time) and either they worked on it there or they sent it out to a driveline shop they partner with. I don't recall the exact amount of time I was waiting on it but it could have been 2-3 weeks. That was either 2011 or 2012. I have been very happy with their work.

Have you given Aaron a courtesy call if it's been that long? And did he suggest a timeframe for you to expect them to be finished?
