wow, instant failure.... good improvement there ehhh

 

I knew that POS wasn't going to work the first time I layed eyes on it. Hoss is just a great guy with an always optimistic outlook so he gives everyone the benefit of doubt. Hopefully his politeness and patience pays off and the right thing is done and this remedied.

 

Ok, i got that part. is it yours or someone elses?

 

Nah, not mine, Hoss-05's, a SARX brother of mine.

 

of course, there's never any reason to feel threatened by a sucker

MM got away with it for years even

 

True Story

 

Nice

 

I wonder if the engine support /motor mount arm that comes with this kit could be used in building a better header? Does anyone know if they will sell just the mount?

 

I am sure he would sell it alone but why would you want it, it's a piece of crap?

 

You'd be better off going to a fabricator and telling them what specs you are looking for.

 

I think I now havea plan of attack for the engine mount but it may take awhile to get it right. We will see.

 

Ok, thanks for the heads up. I will have to see what I can do.

 

I'm sure the guy you made that statement to felt the same way, but my only intent is not to see someone played for a patsy and it happens all too much around here

when I tried to warn people about jumping in both feet first over what to me was just a bunch of unsubstantiated hype I got the usual Team's just being a jerk replies or was otherwise ignored

.

 

Just curious if you we're able to get any pics...

 

no i didn't. car is up on stands and i was "re-tasked" amongst other things.
however the only thing i saw was the tab that bolts to the motor mount, had bent. i guessing by eye-balling it, its 3/8 thick stainless. 1/4 shouldn't bend, well depending on what it's made out of and if it was hardened.

I wasnt able to get my mic in that space to measure.

 

Any updates on your end?

 

I haven't heard anything from Elliot/Turblown since he signed for my parts back in August. I disputed with credit card company and they issued a credit.

How about you?

 

Well that's good. Are you going to fix the kit? I'm not sure exactly where Hoss is at with him, I think he is just going to get the stuff fixed locally though to avoid more headaches.

 

^^ Wow, this is pathetic.... my sympathy for you two

 

I don't have a kit to fix. Elliot kept the parts.

 

You got your cash back though right?

 

You sent the whole kit back? Turbo and all?

 

This is the email I got back in July. I shipped back the parts he outlined at my expense, pretty much all the major components including the turbo. He signed for them on 8/2/2012 and said it would take about 4 weeks. I emailed several times in August. Because of all the problems I suggested he consider letting me return the kit and I would even pay the restocking fee. On 8/27/2012 he finally replied and said he hoped to ship at the end of that week. I have not seen parts nor heard from him since, which is why I opened the dispute.

Jason,

You will have to ship the intercooler, brackets, hotside piping, turbo manifold, turbo, and motor mount bracket back for these modifications. I will also change the intercooler brackets out for better fitment, along with a better design.

Not yet. I opened a dispute and got a credit back from credit card company. However, Elliot is challenging the dispute. So he's got most of the kit, turbo and all, and still wants to fight.

 

Ouch, i was under the impression you only sent a couple of items back. Well I hope you end up being made whole. Typically they side with the card holder though, so you should be good.

 

Thanks. I hope Hoss gets things worked out as well.
