Went down and met Chris at Mina Gallery today.
Really nice guy he walked me around his shop showed me the plasma cutting machines they use to make the parts and I got to take a peek in the warehouse.
Picked up the intake for my wifes 07 and I snapped a few picks. This was hard to do, its packed with parts in different stages of manufacturing but I got a few of some done.

 

Wow! Devo, thanks for the peek into Chris's shop. Spoke to him yesterday. Pop on that intake.

 

Yea I couldn't hang out to long I went on my lunch break but there is a LOT of cool stuff in there, body kits, full grill sets, carbon fiber trim just all over the place. He gave me a few catalogs to if anyone wants one let me know.

 

I want one!

 

devo357, ETG (ECU) Tuning Group is down the road from Mina.

 

Cool i will have to stop by

 

My Mina intake is in the mail, thx for the teaser pic!

 

Sent you a PM

 

Mine is in the mail Too, they should use that picture as advertising.

 

They should offer free tours with a goodie bag at the end.

 

Nice pics, I wonder if my grille insert is pictured in there! I ordered it last Week and it should be shipping today/tomorrow.

Excited and waiting!

 

Pic 3# looks like inserts, he was cutting some when I came by. Looks like there are some powder coated ones too!

 

Chris has a favorable opinion on an ECU Tuning Group's tune.

 

Ahhhh so this is what you were referring to! Is the ECU tune by Mina? Did I miss a discussion on another thread? Inquiring minds wants to know.

 

ETG (ECU Tuning Group) is near Mina. No affiliation. Chris mentioned to me that the past three XKR's passing through his door had ETG's tunes and they were satisfied with the results. One thing that pisses me off is that Jag of ETG said to me that they develop the tunes, when in fact they purchase the tune (likely Paramount Performance) and can't make changes to it. Chris also mentioned he felt Eurotoys version of the tune doesn't do as well. IMO, Chris (Mina) is the one to trust.
