jamanrr does have a point. I had this issue come up on some coilovers I sold. they were on my car and I had not noticed any problem with them. I parked the car and decided to part it out. I sold the coilovers and when the buyer put them on one of the rear struts was blown. I was pretty sure they were not blown when I removed them but I did not disassemble them and test the struts. the buyer disassembled the coilover in question and made a video of him pushing the strut in by hand and it not returning. So I sold a coilover setup with a blown strut. I refunded the amount it would cost to get a replacement strut and both sides were happy. This is just to show it can happen. If I was selling a motor it would have leak down and comp numbers to protect myself.

I have also been in wolfs shoes. I have bought a motor off the forum and waited several months to install it. I did however do a leak down, comp test and visual inspectection of the bottom end on arrival.

At least you refunded him some money and not just blow him off. You didn't it like a forum member should, at least compensate something for the damn guy.

Just to let him know a little info about myself.

I've been on turbos and modifying them on my own since 1994. I currently own a 2004 Cirrus that is also turbo.

DDG- World Wide Mopars

Luis Barriga is my name and you can see first car there and my second. Spirit RT turbo SOCH 168 hps (nick The Green Hornet) and Phantom RT turbo DOCH 220 hps (nick Phantomas). I learn a lot of turbos from Gary and from Gus too

Here you can see my ex cirrus 02 (nick Jabberjaw)
pals

Ex Dodge Neon SRT-4 230hps (nick Hefty smurf) but it was totalled due a taxi not doing a stop and crash me, had only 600 miles on it and it was my mean dream machine


So I decided to buy another Cirrus 04 that I still currently have as I got a little bit scare how fragile the Neon was on an accident...

Then starting 2008 through Ebay I felt in love with this...
Right away I started a improvement process that ended like this.



By this time I already had been in contact with JWT, bought from them S4 and ECU programming. Ben Pila has been supporting me since then.

But I wasn't totally happy and I wanted more so (turbo lover) so I decided to turn turbo..

Easiest route.. SR20DE+T
Hard way but better and longer results SR20DET and this is where I've been since then.


And I've been improving it's performance in short steps the whole way.

So no, I am not new to turbos and I a really do know what I am doing.


^Man I want a silver VVL B14 like this one day. Looks great bro.

I will keep moving forward. Right now I am hands tied but at least all member of this great forum know what he really is and how he handles a problem.

He simple ignores the matter and you all already seen how he answers.

Hopefully someone here can do something to help me out. Please share info to other forums specially hondas and on facebook too if possible.

Thank you guys
