Artisan Performance and Turbochargers.com have been featured in two more magazine articles this month.. This is becoming to be a trend for us, and we’re starting to run out of wall space for the plaques.  Terrible problems to have, right?

For this round of print, Performance Auto & Sound Magazine has featured the wicked green Porsche of Vince @ iForged Wheels. This ultimate porsche features Artisan’s K24/18G turbocharger upgrades.

Also getting a spread this month is Mishimoto’s Evo X, which features the Artisan EVO X Street Assassin 50 turbo upgrade. The article incorrectly shows it as a 60 Trim, which is available by special order.

In any event, you should all rush out right now and pick up this issue, because you need it. For Real. Seriously.

The Mishimoto Silvia, built by Artisan Performance with help from Turbochargers.com is featured on the cover of July’s DSport Magazine. You can preview the feature on their site, but be sure to pick it up on news stands soon!

If you troll any of the usual automotive sites, you’ve probably seen the Artisan Performance SA-600 2010 Camaro SS. Things at Artisan are really heating up, and we’ll be helping them to bring some of the baddest cars to dominate the streets, the tracks, and the show circuits for 2009 and in to twenty ten.  Once again, we’ve tapped the awesome power of Turbonetics’s GTK series turbos, to unleash mass amounts of gross horsepower.

Camaro aside, let’s move on to more exotic news. The Factory Five GTM, perfected by Artisan is available now, and the first of many is well underway. Featuring a built LS engine, assembled and machined by Late Model Engines of Houston, we’ll be turbocharging this already awesome platform, giving it more horsepower than any one sane man could put to sensible use.

Stay tuned for more on this, and the Lexus IS-c…….

Also, in much more mundane news, We’re proud to announce that we’ve moved to new order management software. We have upgraded our inventory tracking, order status, and shipping systems. What does this mean for you?

It means that on all orders placed since Monday (5/11/2009), You have instant access to order information, letting you see not only what you’ve ordered, but how it shipped, when it shipped, and when it’ll be there. All you need to look up this info is your invoice number and your zip code.  With this information, head to http://www.turbochargers.com/tracking/ and plug it in.

Just one more thing we’re doing in 2009 to make our 30th year our biggest.

We were excited to have the National Guard’s Black Ops 350Z arrive yesterday.  We will be adding a whole bunch of power to this already awesome build.  Stay tuned for more updates.

You can also check out National Guard’s Hot Import Nights Page.

We are starting to look like a Lexus dealer around here with all the IS-f twin turbo conversions going on. Here is a quick video of Greg’s in action.

Turbochargers.com teamed up with Artisan Performance again to create another twin turbo wide body IS-f.

I think the license plate says it all......

Sivaad’s twin turbo IS-f debut at HIN San Mateo last weekend took away top honors. Not only was Sivaad awarded the best Lexus at the show the crowd around the car the entire weekend was crazy. Sivaad is from the Vegas area so keep a look out for this blue beauty at shows in the southwest.

To learn more about an IS-f kit or to have us put together a custom package for your car give one our sales associates a call. We offer coast to coast shipping and turn key packages like the one you see here.

Artisan IS-f Twin Turbo Kit

If you’re local to us, make sure you head out to the Houston Auto Show, Jan 24th through Feb 1st at the Reliant Center. Artisan Performance and Turbochargers.com are making their presence known with the twin turbo Lexus IS-F and the crazy turbo through the hood Altima coupe.

You just saw the Altima in Import Tuner, and the IS-F on TunerZine and Modified,

so go check them out in their respective booths. You can find the altima tucked right next to the GT-R (9 out of 10 kids surveyed perfer the coupe to the GT-R, TRUE STORY) and the Lexus is front and center on the turntable in a sea of black and white Lexuses (Lexii?). Can’t miss them.

Check them out. The show runs for 10 days, and is open until at least 9PM every day. Check out their website for more info.

Last month we talked about the iForged Porsche, a perfect example of how to do up an exotic car and keep it classy. It’s hard to go wrong with the list of additions.. and it hasn’t gone unnoticed.  This month it’s being featured on TunerZine.com, and you should definately check out the article and photo shoot.

This car features the Artisan Performance turbo upgrades that are now available for the most descriminating Porsche owner. Contact us for more information on this exciting new package!
