Oh I almost forgot, check nearly every turbo build on the internet and locally. They all use zip ties to secure vac lines as an added measure of safety. However if you don’t like them, feel free to cut them off. Im sure a loose vac line on the fuel pressure regulator wont be that big of a deal.


I still can't wrap my mind around that comment

If AN lines are utilized correctly and made to length (which every AN line that is made to an individual setup is), I am at a loss if zipties would be necessary to relieve pressure or secure lines as the lines themselves are built to length (and in the case of lines being exceeding lengthy, proper bracketry is used). This also train of thought also applies to electrical wiring.

A perfect example of what I am referring to. I only count 2 zip ties among the litany of wires and AN lines and fittings. Considering the complexity of the build vs what Shawn was offered, that is quiet the achievement! All lines are labeled, color coordinated, etc.

I can post up all the videos proving that what was delivered to him was the car you can physically see with your own eyes, but I'll still be wrong to all of you. So fuck it, what do I have to lose when i am losing in your eyes anyways. This forum is not why I posted this up, the people here that I consider friends and fam are. You all see the way things go when something goes wrong with any situation. Bandwagons are jumped on and shit goes sour really fast.

Pity party table of one.

Its gonna diminish and quickly. I never did any of this for the money, neither has Jamie(im speaking for his and assuming because we communicate a lot better than you Shawn)... We've done this because we own these cars too. We've (yes Im speaking about not only myself but another person aka Jamie lol) been spent tons of money, Jamie more so than myself just to find out what that next level advancement is like.. To conquer that little bit, to go from a basically turbo car community then testing every single sr2?ve thing you can to go faster and make just that 1-2 more whp naturally aspirated, it takes passion. It takes a lot of heart and like jamie has said many times: "The stomach for it" when your spending everything you got in your pockets just to be that one to help others get there too.

You believing you communicate openly and honestly with Jamie Marsh is sooooo tiresome.

The rest of that tripe is you babbling off-topic.

Thanks for clarifying that without Jamie, you would just leave me and this FUBAR'd build as-is.

I've done waaaaaay too much to protect you and Jamie and his good name.

You and Justin brought it to this point on September 6th.

I gave up on your help a very long time ago jack-ass.

I gave you that ultimatum to wake your stupid, collective, asses up. To get your attention. To make Jamie, who had NO IDEA what was going on, pay attention.

You're fucking lucky I was generous enough to give you 48 hours, and then an additional two (2) weeks or more after you and Fucko-The-Mechanical-Clown sent me those emails dated September 6th. This thread was dropped on September 23rd.

We've both had a rough fucking year.

Unfortunately, you directly contributed in a HUGE manner to my shitty year. Which is continuing as I type this response.

You act like a motherfucking child Mark. A spoiled, irresponsible, entitled, finger-pointing child.

You've gotten off lightly with me Mark.

I think you should try that sometime in person Mark, see how it works out for you.

You WERE hired to do this job, you gladly accepted my money and made the deposit at your bank. You are the one that delivered the load of shit. Twice.

The car is currently NOT a great car by the standards of both the client and community. That should tell you something Mark.

Your intentions aside, you have indeed fucked me over Mark.

I would have never taken this project on if I knew how to tell the future. I have learned a lot from this. I will not be taking on any projects for sr20 chassis cars that are customer/business based. Some people will think: "Great thank god he wont because turning out hacked cars like this will hopefully save these cars from shit", Others will think: "damn Mark its like that I really dont want to see you go". I will be selling parts from now on and enjoying my group of friends that I consider family in this community.

There was a time, not too long ago, that I considered you family. I would have taken a bullet for you. I thought of you like a younger brother. You still have no real idea just how much this affected and upset me. Not a single clue. Betrayal is the cruelest cut of all.

I've got no issues with Jamie other than he allowed you to operate waaaay too independently under his company name.

You and that asshole Justin ought to think about this in the future.

"We." Sure Mark, whatever you say.

And in all this diatribe you wrote, you cannot just present an honest, simple, heartfelt, sincere apology without any reservations or qualifying statements.

Is this real life?

As Shawn and Mark are having their differences, Justin seems to be the one who physically did most if not all the work on Shawn's car. Love to hear what he has to say. At least Mark was man enough to respond to the criticism against him whether he was guilty or not. He does share his portion of blame for the final result. Now my curiosity boils down to how Justin put everything together. Valve cover with no PCV valve? Really????

Unfortunately, you have seemingly missed the point of my post. Although I agree there is a significant investment present in the engine bay I posted above, Shawn ultimately allowed Mark an "unlimited" budget, and in return, the above is what is to be expected........and not in terms of the $$$ that is spent, but NOT having loose wires, brass plumbing fittings, incorrect wire lengths, open Oil ports on the valve cover etc. The extreme attention to detail, a very high level of skilled execution and first class craftsmaship is what is lacking in Shawn's build from top to bottom. In all honesty, regardless of budget, the outcome of Shawn's vehicle is appalling at best.

In addition, the vehicle above is put together by several engineers/mechanics over the course of 1-3 weeks, NOT a year as you stated. Justin and company had several months...........

Think of it this way:

Imagine if you took your car to a shop, paid them a ton of money (the office, as you're not talking to the mechanics) and leave. Then a few hours later have all these issues, you bring it back to 'the shop' only for them to tell you "It's the mechanics fault, and he did it all wrong, you bring it up with him, it's not my issue I just own the business and cash the checks"

...doesn't make sense does it?

It's like buying a new car at the dealer, for them to tell you to 'no warranty, you blame John Doe on the wheel bearing assembly plant line'

Good point sir. Definitely keeping an open mind in this whole fiasco. Just wish I knew who physically did the installation and hands on work before it was passed on to be accepted as close to Shawn's expectations as possible. 90% finished, 10% not. And that is where the quality control fell flat. That's a hell of a lot of 10% with the pics and vids we've seen so far.
