That's bad business practice.

Shti for luck. Pull the tranny and get er done. Modifying cars can be a pain in the butt sometimes.

Bobby at vsr is supposed to be arranging for transport to have my car shipped to the shop and will fix at no cost to me. Once this is done I will fly down and drive around FL to put break in the motor so he can tune the car with the 1000cc injectors. Right now I'm running the gtm base map with the 600cc injectors. I can tell you my next car will already be FI because this whole ordeal has costed me a lot of time and money with No happy ending thus far...

Mine will also, I know I didn't spend as much coin as you but the next car for me will also be FI.
Do not want to travel that road again. GL will come

I can only think of what else they may have missed since they managed to miss a $20 seal costing me more time and money. My faith in vsr is diminishing fast.. It's now 8:00 a.m. my time and still no word from bobby..

I don't understand that, this and that are entirely seperate issues, the rear main on this motor comes pre assembled into the rear cover how do you **** that up?

Hate to hear about your experience man.. I know you've been down awhile. Also understand your disappointment and lack of faith with VSR as I'm sure Infidel does too. I myself have almost lost complete faith. My car will be going to either Z1 or Dynosty soon to diagnose the health of my engine and work out the bugs my car has had since I got back from Tampa. Hope your build ends up being solid, I however have a bad taste in my mouth at the moment with VSR. Time will tell what my situation will be. Best of luck!

You guys stating your next car will already be FI, care to elaborate? Do you mean a factory fi or a modded car that has fi?

COSMO · 08-19-2014, 11:17 AM

Here is a pick on the engine stand but dummy me did not even notice it wasn't there..
