Good friend...I thought you were running the Techo blower as well.

The blower is race ported by Techco, I have the Techco CAI, and the car is tuned by Techco...that is it. They did one hell of a job, this thing is an animal

Techo is done guys.

Agreed that it's never a good thing when a man or woman loses their jobs. The principal shipped all of the equiptment up to Canada where he came from, Carlos and the boys called up a few others to come by and help clean up by giving away some overhead and that's that. No smaller facility, no new address. Not unless we see Techo Canada pop up early next year but I doubt it since the employees ARE the company and they are all in So. Cal.

In this business you never know if someone gets a phone call again. It's smart of Carlos and Ned not to come into any open forum and confirm or deny anything at all for fear of a new employer interested in them as new team members.

As far as Stevie, we will see how and if this weekends festivites pan out. Steve has 9 lives and will not give up on his dream. He is very good at rallying the troops. I doubt we have seen the last of him. He can't leave So. Cal anyway.

I always wondered where the "International" (the "intl" part of their website name) part of Techco came from... So are Concours Motorcars still in the building (along with the Techo "Super Extreme")?

Very sad. I wish the best to Carlos and Ned. They always treated me great. I hope they post when they land on their feet.

Being Canadian, I would doubt they ever set-up shop there. There is as many people in the country as in California. Yes, they could ship anywhere but their exposure would be limited being in Canada. Other than Sean Hyland and a few others is there any well known suppliers/manufacturers out of Canada? Not when I lived there.
