Looking for good Aluminium Welders
Howsit guys,
Need to do the TSI mod on my K04 turbo (pretty simple mod). Does anyone know of/ recommend a good/ reputable place to get some aluminium welding done?. Magsta is helping me look for places in the Vaal area.

Re: Looking for good Aluminium Welders
If you want the job done right by competent coded welder you need to look at ISO 3834 level 2 certificated companies IIRC. There are plenty companies in Vaal that can do this, MEMP Engineering 016 986 3087 and Vanderbijl Hydraulic Engineering 016 986 1275, just some of the guys I use here at work.

'89 MKII Golf CSL OEM
'97 MKIII GTi Exec
