Just wondering how well this company is and if anyone had their engine rebuilt from here or bought parts.

http://www.broadfootracing.com/

They have the parts to make your na 2.5l to the 2.5l turbo like the 944 turbo or custom make parts. Looks a little pricey.

I believe this is for 924s only, maybe 931's too?

I've purchased a couple of parts from them for my UWB project. No issues.

I have encountered a couple of guys that mentioned they were a bit of a pain to deal with on custom stuff like the engines and fiberglass if you weren't right there in Florida to hound them.

Take it for what it's worth. My parts were used, sitting-on-the-shelf stuff they wanted to move. OTOH, the anecdote above is just that, hear-say.

I bought their Euro alternator mount (AC delete), and a couple of used parts from them off of ebay. Didn't have any problems with them or the parts.

Yeah, I too have heard of some having problems if needing service etc... should be reasonably safe if going for off-the-shelf (used) parts.
