glad to see they were on today and didn't respond. Yet they did write a message to blueroadster.

wow! Really digging a hole for themselves. I guess they must believe that those high output numbers might just sell itself.

I finally finished reading the whole story. I know how you feel. But isn't this what you have expected, time, money, patience?

Am always late like always, jeshua sorry to hear what happen to you bro, i was seriously looking forwards to seen your turbo MT R18 since i have one, and i was wanting to see the kind of power it was going to make.

I had 4k save for this turbo, and they just lost my money.

Now i have to see if Greaddy will be making one.

Thumbs down

They don't have specific details... sounds like they are just avoiding the problem altogether, it should be priority to respond to this thread!

Been a while since I've looked at these forums but I'll tell you something. This is not an uncommon occurance when dealing with all those rinky dink shops out there. They will gouge the **** out of you for shit, make excuses, and try to blame you for their own ignorance and inexperience.

The ones to really look out for are dyno tuning shops. I've been ripped off by two of them. The first one charged me $600 for tuning and modifying an intake bonnet. $200 of that came from "dyno tuning" when it was supposed to only be $80 and $400 in labor. That was B&T Motorsports in Virginia. The next was even worse, Maryland Performance. This asshole there trying to dyno tune my vehicle charged me $2200, for a larger y-pipe and hours worth of "hard work" and "tuning". Guess what? He only spent 3 days on my truck, 1 day he spent 40 minutes, another 9 minutes, and another only 13 minutes. And he didn't even tune it! I had to ******* tow my vehicle out of there because it was in such bad shape, and he wouldn't even pay for the towing. I ended up tuning the vehicle myself and its running better than ever.

All I gotta say is, be careful, and get shit in writing. If they are supposedly charging you a certain amount of money, get it in writing, sign it, and get a copy of it. Keep copies of all information, calls and anything else you do when dealing these hole in the wall bullshit shops. They love to prey on young adults, and they'll do it without hesitating.

Not surprising to see shops go downhill. You may of had a good experience with this AJP company but obviously they aren't all they are cracked up to be if other's have issues with them. This kind of shit is nothing new to me.

Back in the day this company I bought my supercharger from had nothing but praise for how well they dealt with their customers. But about 3-4 years later they started to become shady, ripping customers off, flat out lying to their customers, not shipping all the parts necessary for their $5000 kits(did that to me, took 3 months to get everything), not to mention selling shitty products.

Can't believe AJP would stoop that low in the other thread :

Let the truth be told.

Knew they were losers from the start.
