Majin,
Is the install and tuning done on the Dominator 3 yet? Sorry about the mess you went through with FP. Congrats on moving on to Blouch

Lots of guests viewing... Not good news for FP since this is reaciing people *beyond* IWSTI.com.

It's going to be a while before I upgrade my turbo, but it's good to know who not to go to.

I was turned off by FP in 2001 (Never liked the owner, he wouldn't launch his damn GSX at the strip in the import shootout finals against me, instead he rolled off the line and beat me).

No really, I never had a problem with the guy, but about 1.5 years ago it seems their customer service went down the tubes.

Bloush customer service is great. No questions asked on a turbo rebuild when you send it in under warranty.

I just have debugging to do toady and I get to read the rest of the day.

Haha I finished my projects for the day too. Matt aren't you supposed to be managing some databases?? HAHA

Man I never would have thought that FP would treat someone like that. I liked how the guy wanted to speak with you on the phone so badly. That is usually a good sign that they want to try to get out of something without evidence of what was said. Majin you took the right route and kept it all within emails. Do you plan on a civil suit?

Read and understand.

Henry at Mach III (bay area, SF) always tell people stay away from FP.
Now I believe him

...

after reading all the thread about FP (fail)
Blouch is the way to go, or DB, of cuz
