Yeah. I feel the same way. Maybe its cuz Im bitter that he refuses to do anything about the pipe he sold me that is a waste of money. He has not responded to me about it at all yet posts on here about other randomness. Your saying the concept is there. Ok, make something that works then instead of taking money for something that doesn't.

I'm interested in more info about those guys as well, if there are threads at all.

Well I know for a fact that Z&I was not stock. He had the 9psi pulley and the upgraded impeller making 12psi. 4 more over stock.

I know this because I have his old kit and we discussed it on the phone.

Wow, interesting.

As you can tell I have not been all that active here, and I honestly forgot about the PM you sent me a month ago asking for $$$ back...and I just sent you a partial refund through paypal.

I also do have a life outside of the forums and this business that I own, no to mention a day job, which has kept me extremely busy this summer with a lot of travel...I just got back from Chicago for example. As for "posting about other randomness"...please show me the number of my posts in the last month or so? I just replied to a couple of things in the V2 build thread and that is about all.

You were buying a piece of pipe from me which I rushed to get built and shipped to you. The Y section was built, and you knew it wasn't tested or proven at the time. This was a risk that you were willing to take. I don't understand what your frustration is with that. The engineering was based on my experience with tall MAF housings (which is what you got) and 3" piping. At the time of design/build, this to me seemed like a viable solution based on the limited amount of room there is to work with. Again, you knew this, as the entire forum knows that I don't have secrets to keep.


OP, sorry for the derail here.

BOT:

If you are looking for a simple way to add power to your car, please consider the Boosted Performance turbo kit. I has proven itself to be very reliable, simple to install and maintain while effortlessly making 550hp and 450ft/tq at the wheels.

If you choose to go with the SC Stillen seems to be the only one available on the market for this platform. It is not a perfect kit and there are options out there to improve some of its deficiencies. I for example am working on a complete air/air system to improve the efficiency of the system.

If you are considering a TT kit, give the guys at Fast Intentions a call and you won't be disappointed.

What's interesting is I hadn't voiced a thing about it not working or that you wouldn't reply to me yet the day I make it vocal you decide to take action. Had you responded to my more then one attempt to contact you in regards to this, this would have/ should have been handled differently.

I fully understand the situation. But being ignored as a paying customer is something completely different.

And I've viewed your profile. You logged in plenty between your posts.

I don't want to burn bridges here as you know I support your kit. But this is just simple customer support.

Again, I forgot about it until I saw your post. A PM would have done the same thing. Anyway, I don't wish to discuss it here. Like I said, partial refund sent, there is nothing further to discuss.

I wonder if other kit providers forget about concerns and it takes repeated attempts before resolution.

How many pms do you need?

Thank you for the more then generous refund.

There is no kit you could be referring to. You ponied up for an untested possible solution to an inferior kit design. You should have known what you were getting into. You are obviously comfortable with tackling a project on your own, I would think you would understand that things don't always work out the way you plan then.

So BP is the only kit provider for the 370?

I asked if there was any possible refund. Ignored for a month till response.

I'm glad there was one the same hour after taking it public.

That's all.
