Damn- Sorry i haven't been back on to check for replies until today.

I'm merely only asking for opinions. I've tried calling Griffin Transmission as suggested multiple times on different days and never got an answer so i continued looking around. I want someone that i will be able to contact and get a hold of that is performing the work. Simple as that.

I found a shop (Diesel Addiction) that has a very good reputation with building Duramax specific trucks based out of North Carolina. I have been able to speak multiple times with the person that will be building my truck for 30+ minutes at a time for every phone conversation I've had with them. To me- that is a vitally important part of customer service and owning a business; and frankly how you win customers.

Believe me i am very open to suggestions. I value every ones opinion as it will in turn only help me down the road I'm going. From the research I've done and looking at the compressor/flow map the turbo seems that it would work very good in the operating parameters for which i plan to use it and has a very competitive price considering it already has a forged milled wheel and a race cover on it.

There were a few specialized things i wanted done during the installation of the turbo and building of the trans and i was unable to locate anyone local that had the capabilities to do it and after talking with the shop and speaking with other people that have had custom work done there they were extremely pleased. There are few things that i wanted done that i couldn't just buy "in a kit". A one stop shop seemed like it would be the best route to me to get done what i want done.

My biggest thing is the time to get it all done- i don't really have the time to bounce from shop to shop or wait for this part here and there, ETC. Sorry if i offended anyone- I just want to do what would seem best for me in the long run and makes the most sense.
