Default TurboChargers.com has my Car...Total FAIL! I'm Crush Tuned now FTMFW!

alright people i'm finally joining the F/I club after a year of waiting (and still actually waiting) i went and got missing parts from the coolest SL member and life saver lol. i took my car to Turbochargers.com yesterday morning and delivered my car and all turbo parts... and to my deepest biggest surprise there are fitment issues NO WAY lol i knew it was coming but its gonna cost up towards $500 to make it fit and make it work with parts and labor. FML but i trust these guys and i should be getting my car back in a few days.

pre-install pics...

Fitments issues....no surprise there. My boy Nick had to have Lethal Injection re-fab the IC pipes as well. Not much in way of "quality control" can be had by someone who builds stuff out his personal garage. It's like every kit was done at time of order, without using the schematics of the previous kit (first successful kit) produced. Like a build it by eye type deal. That's why there are like 500 different manifolds....lol. Passed off as "version X". I wasn't fooled into thinking he created a version because he wanted too. I saw it as failed attempts to correct the problems.

Nonetheless though, hope all goes well and you are happy boosting.

TT and fitment do not belong in the same sentence, he can't even get the maf flange welding in correct that is as bad as the kid puzzles trying to put a square through a triangle hole.

thanks chris
hey a bunch of us are going out to 1960 at the papa johns, come on out and hang with us...dont worry about not having your car...last time i went out there i didnt have my car either..lol

honestly i think they are pumping you for more dough...500 bux more is just wrong imho. I know for a fact i can have that kit on and running before the day is out w/ a good running base map all for free. Im sure there is some sort of fitment issue im not saying they are just lieing to ya but so far whatever fitment issues i have viewed were easy fixes for me. Then again not alot of peeps have the skills i do on here. I can even get Carlos to come on over and lend a hand.

I gurantee i can do it, i put my name on the line bro.
