IWSTI Addict since: May 2005 | I'm just glad Majin listened to my advice and went with Blouch. They really do have great customer service and make good turbos. If nothing else Blouch is just smarter than FP. When I had one of the first 2.5Rs that had a design flaw (which was fixed in the newer version) in the exhaust housing they were smart enough to admit fault and supply me with a new turbo as well as reimburse me for my tuning costs instead of screw me over. I'm sure that's paid off from all of the support I've given them on the forums. |

IWSTI Addict since: Nov 2005 | i was looking and saving up for a fp20g but after reading this, i'm more hesitant now on upgrading the turbo and i'm gonna look around some more. I was going to suspect you received the turbo from a bad batch but two different turbos failing from the same company and you can't make any more excuses on why they failed. it sucks having to waste money on parts that malfunction early on its life but what sucks even more is the company will not even try to compensate for the amount of time and dedication you spent in trying to make things right with them. good luck with the blouch turbo! |

IWSTI Addict since: Feb 2008 | I am terribly sorry to hear about this. I feel your pain because i have gotten screwed over by other companies in the past, and it really f**king sucks. Let me know if there's something i can do for you (cross reference or something) and I'd be happy to help....perhaps a hug hahaha! Anyway, as other people on this forum, i was inches away from buying a large FP turbo, but there is NO WAY IN HELL i would want to deal with the s*** you went through. Good luck FP...you'll need it |
