Anyone used Slowboy Racing ??
Neil is really good mate, used him a few times and he always seems honest with you. I took my car there for a cambelt check expecting him to pull a few things. He called me back and said all was well and i could come fetch the car, could have made money from this but was honest. Well done to him.

i've had nothing but amazing help and great service from neil. not too sure where you got that he'll damage your engine lol. he's been working with subarus for a long time and is very experienced. i think if you've heard bad things about neil then you should definitely confirm who's fault it was first before slagging him off...

Bloody hell 
looks like I have opened a can of worms here.
I have spoken to Neil to day and he seems like a really nice guy hes going to look at my car on Friday. I have a strange problem with the turbo I think ? under full load its making a sort of grinding noise and now its sort of hesitating as its boosting
Neil said he needs to drive the car but sounded positive that he could sort it. Im hopping its a split pipe or something

Actually, I'm rather more concerned about Singhs' serious apostrophe issues. Quote; "Dyno Dynamic's" and "come's".
See below for clarity, courtesy Wikipedia. I can look up "Imbecile" as well if required.
General principles for the possessive apostrophe
Basic rule (singular nouns)
For most singular nouns the ending 's is added; e.g., the cat's whiskers.
If a singular noun ends with an /s/ or a /z/ sound (spelled with -s, -se, -z, -ce, for example), practice varies as to whether to add 's or the apostrophe alone. A widely accepted practice is to follow whichever spoken form is judged better: the boss's shoes, Mrs Jones' hat (or Mrs Jones's hat, if that spoken form is preferred). In many cases, both spoken and written forms differ between writers. (See details below.)
Basic rule (plural nouns)
When the noun is a normal plural, with an added s, no extra s is added in the possessive; so pens' caps (where there is more than one pen) is correct rather than pens's caps.
If the plural is not one that is formed by adding s, an s is added for the possessive, after the apostrophe: children's hats, women's hairdresser, some people's eyes (but compare some peoples' recent emergence into nationhood, where peoples is meant as the plural of the singular people). These principles are universally accepted.
A few English nouns have plurals that are not spelled with a final s but end in an /s/ or a /z/ sound: mice (plural of mouse, and for compounds like dormouse, titmouse), dice (when used as the plural of die), pence (a plural of penny, with compounds like sixpence that now tend to be taken as singulars). In the absence of specific exceptional treatment in style guides, the possessives of these plurals are formed by adding an apostrophe and an s in the standard way: seven titmice's tails were found, the dice's last fall was a seven, his few pence's value was not enough to buy bread. These would often be rephrased, where possible: the last fall of the dice was a seven.[4]
Basic rule (compound nouns)
Compound nouns have their singular possessives formed with an apostrophe and an added s, in accordance with the rules given above: the Attorney-General's husband; the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports' prerogative; this Minister for Justice's intervention; her father-in-law's new wife.
In such examples, the plurals are formed with an s that does not occur at the end: e.g., Attorneys-General. A problem therefore arises with the possessive plurals of these compounds. Sources that rule on the matter appear to favour the following forms, in which there is both an s added to form the plural, and a separate s added for the possessive: the Attorneys-General's husbands; successive Ministers for Justice's interventions; their fathers-in-law's new wives.[5] Because these constructions stretch the resources of punctuation beyond comfort, in practice they are normally reworded: interventions by successive Ministers for Justice.[6][7]
With other punctuation; compounds with pronouns
If the word or compound includes, or even ends with, a punctuation mark, an apostrophe and an s are still added in the usual way: Awaye!'s Paulette Whitten recorded Bob Wilson's story;[8] Washington, D.C.'s museums,[9] assuming that the prevailing style requires full stops in D.C.
If the word or compound already includes a possessive apostrophe, a double possessive results: Tom's sisters' careers; the head of marketing's husband's preference; the master of foxhounds' best dog's death. Some style guides, while allowing that these constructions are possible, advise rephrasing: the preference of the head of marketing's husband. If an original apostrophe, or apostrophe with s, occurs at the end, it is left by itself to do double duty: Our employees are better paid than McDonald's employees; Standard & Poor's indexes are widely used; the 5uu's first album (the fixed forms of McDonald's and Standard & Poor's already include possessive apostrophes; 5uu's already has a non-possessive apostrophe before its final s). No noun or noun phrase ever includes two apostrophes at its end. For similar cases involving geographical names, see below.
By extended application of the principles stated above, the possessives of all phrases whose wording is fixed are formed in the same way:
“Us and Them”'s inclusion on the album The Dark Side of the Moon
You Am I's latest CD
The 69'ers' last drummer, Tom Callaghan (only the second apostrophe is possessive)
His 'n' Hers' first track is called “Joyriders”.[10]

I've been over to Neil for a few bits including intrim service, 45,000k service inc cambelt, 16g turbo fitted.
He always very honest with costs and time need to do the work, he's been more than willing to go the extra mile when problems have crept up too.
If your looking for first stage work like i have had done or more high end work i'd not hesitate to give him a shout.
The only reason i didn't get Neil to do my mapping is that i had my first map done with Zak over at Mocom and it was easier to stick with the original mapper.
No idea what STi Singh is on about, if you post things like that about someones business then it should be backed up with details on what exactly went wrong and why Neil would be to blame..... I guess he's quite new to the scooby owning business eh....

Just had to reply to the linked thread as I'd forgotten I'd actually put a response. Admittedly I (obviously) gave the impression that I wasn't happy with the company which is completely incorrect. Sorry to cause any offense to Neil.... it was just a badly worded reply on my part. Slowboy = 
i have been using slowboy racing for almost 3 years. i have always had a top service and advice. all my mechanical work and mapping has been carried out by neil. so i highly recommend him

Neil did my 30k service, price at beginning was price at end, that has never happened with a main dealer. I'll be taking my other scooby into him for a 20k in the new year. He even talked me out of coilovers as they were not worth the expense for a commuter car. Very happy with him.
