TRE or Shep for quick turn around

I am not asking who is the better company or whatever...

I know the both companies are great and are able to make awesome trannys,
However I am sort of on a time budget if you will and I wanted to know what the turnarounds were like for the companies anyone with personal experiance?

I know TRE was having problems but I remember reading they had gotten better and I wanted to know if this was true.

And I never read anything about Shep taking away however i wanted to know what it actually took for some people to get their stuff back

**and I've already though of using Bushwacker tranny however I wanted to get my TC done as well and from what i know BR doesnt do any TC rebuilding or beefing. **

I was just down at Sheps the other day. I would estimate between 1.5 - 2 weeks turn around. He has a lot of trannys right now.

Shep has the best turnaround BY FAR. Everyone seems to have problems with TRE. They are way too understaffed for the amount of work they take in. Both TRE and shep do great work, but Shep has been doing it longer and has more people working under him.

TRE does great work but takes forever to turn around a trans. He also doesn't believe in a answering machine, or picking up the phone.

Just my experience. Trans works great now though.
