Looking for info on the "Collin Head" I saw advertised on Matrix website

940 Views 19 Replies 10 Participants Last post by  Zupek
I saw this part and was wondering if anyone had any information on it. I have heard of others selling heads, and different shops porting and polishing heads as well.
I am trying to peice together a good turbo motor, and this is next on my list of things to get.
Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

One of the best head tuners in the vw planet, from what I have heard and seen, just a busy little fella, thats all.

Back in the day you could call TT and order a p/p head from them(Collin did all the work). However, you cannot go thru TT for the heads anymore.
A few shops now deal with Collin directly for his spectacular work. We are one of them. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

SilverJetta,
Stop by the shop sometime and we can show you John's p/p Collin head that we have here(the one for sale).
HTH,
Jeremy

real power is hard to get out and that as much as the design has flaws, the result of the long and short runners are quite astonishing in result...but still to get real hp out of it, you have to stay away from the easy way. Collin is quite a gentlemen and his openess in discussing his R&D is something that is seldom seen...

We second that motion. Collin is an artist, a gentleman, and a true friend.
See you on the track Stephane.

Best,
Jeremy

Thanks for the info, sounds like he does a wonderful job with the VR6 heads. I did not know that they were so tricky to make work right.
So what would I be looking at as far as cost goes for a head like that? I would love to drop by Jeremy, when is best for you, I am sure that you are really busy, and I would hate to drop bye and get in the way!
