Bought a duttneck IC from him. Took 3 weeks to send after cashing my MO. Said duttneck works great:confused: When I did finally get it I put it on (well tried to) and the neck was so far off there's no way it could have been run on ANY car. Sent PMs about either returning it or getting a little kick back to help get it fixed have heard nothing.
 
Maybe he was confused as to how it is supposed to work? JK man. That really sucks and I hope you get your money back. How about posting pics of the intercooler?
 
have you tried re-clocking the turbo?

No I haven't, but it won't do any good. I'll put it this way. Move a stock IC to the right 3/4 of an inch and down about 1/2 inch. THat's how far it is off. Half the turbo lines up with the neck. I bolted the stock IC back up and it lines up perfectly even without hoses
 
That sucks dude, I hope it gets resolved.

Looks like a krylon overhaul to me.
 
You got a raw deal here, buddy. Sorry. That sure is a bitch when that happens. Feel for you. Want me to go get my .44?:tongue: It would sure be nice if you got your money back. Don't see why he wouldn't refund if you're so unhappy with it.....that's what I would do.....would hate to have someone pissed at me for a bad transaction.

Nope. I told him I would be happy just to pay for the 1 hour labor to fix it and I would let it go. He's been lurking on the board though. He's got the cash to buy a front mount but can't even pay to fix the ic he sold me. That thing was dressed up like a cheap hooker in the photos. You'll see it saturday.

So WTF do I do? Sell both the ICs for next to nothing and spend MORE money that I don't really have to get something better or spend another 60+ on the POS he sent me, fix it, and throw it on the car? I get pissed every time I see it sitting in the garage.
 
well ya said an hour to fix it.. FIX it :confused: whats the big deal ?? I know its not what you bargained for but it would take care of the intercooler . Rather just unloading everything for nothing.
 
Years ago I sent one to a board member that fit my car fine & on his was off by enuf that it wouldnt fit 100% correct. He said $75 to fix it so I agreed to pay the 1 hour to fix it & everyone was happy again. Not every car fits the exact same but that thing is pretty far off from the pics. Just tell him send the $75 & install it. See if his WORD is worth anything?
If not, you learned a cheap lesson. Could have been $750 or worse!!

I'd be happy if he sent me 50 bucks. Oh believe me, the neck is way off. Maybe when I get the car back I will bolt it on and show just how far off it is. After I got it and found out it didn't work I found the thread he bought the IC from. THe pic shows it on the car but doesn't show the neck. SO basically he got screwed by someone on the board and he screwed me. Can't do anything about it but b!tch. I'm just gonna fix it sometime over the winter and be done with it.
 
I'd have to agree. Just fix it and be done with it. The rest of us will remember this guy's screen name and wont do business with him. Or at least I wont unless he makes it right with you. He's local to most of the Turbo Farm too. I'll make sure he doesnt get any "deals"!!!!:biggrin:
