I know Innovative is a good shop and all but are you seriously going to risk driving your car 4-1/2 hours just to get it checked out? I think you need to rethink that, it’s probably time to find a shop near you.

that turbo was the only green i have had out of the 3 ive owned that was in perfect condition. the seals aren’t bad, its your motor. its blow by is pushing oil throw everywhere including you turbo. when i had it and sold it to mike it was in great condition with no shaft play.

dude you are ridiculous calling him out on buffalo scooby and now this. grow the fuck up, he had the compression and leakdown test done, numbers were great he bought the car. end of story, no scamming done. it sucks that this happened but mike wouldnt scam anyone and ill vouch for him. seriously you need to stop blaming innovative for all your problems and taking a shot at them every chance you get.

yep, not because of innovative or any other owner of the car. it was because of my fault, i built the top end of it, beat the living hell out of it, and the bottom end gave way.

i could go around blaming people if i felt like it but im taking responsibility for my actions, something you seem not to know how to do

Just to recap here - this thread is not about innovative, \*\*\*, superloudsti, steve2k1116.

lets keep the same old bullshit out of this thread, if you want to add to the pile do it in the drama section where it belongs.

edit: forgot about the \*\*\* filter, and i lol’d for real.

Ok let me reserve this space for when I get home from work and have time to type the whole situation out.

For now, please only comment if you have something SMART to say, and please don’t assume anything.

IT’s NOT A BIG DEAL.
