What Blew Up Travis's STi?

ok so from what i have read so far, let me get this straight…
you drove the car with a broken boost solenoid, which would allow the car to boost whatever the hell it wants
you had a bad o2, which would not allow you to get any accurate readings whatsoever
also could you tell me where you adjust fuel pressure in the tune

This dude’s first post is bashing Travis! Hahaha.

ok you do that… dom will have more time for the rest of his customers then, thats fine with me.

(not taking anything away from seth, he is a great dude.)

lol

<<<<sits back awaiting response. ;D

haha

just looking for common sense… :ponder

You are fucking stupid. You are a dirtbag and a peice of shit. You think the way people on welfare think, that you desreve something for nothing. No you fucking shit he shouldnt have done anything more than he did for 45 bucks. How much do you think a single dyno drag for hp numbers is, with no tuning at all? How much do you think tuners make an hour? Just becuase its you he should do something more for 45 bucks? You are a peice of shit that thinks he deserves special treatment.

Did you totally forget about the fact that your oiling issure was spraying shit through your motor for a fucking eternity? You blew TWO turbos threw that motor. You think this guy, who is the only tuner ive ever heard of that touched a car for 45 bucks, fucked your motor…What about the weeks you had no idle? You brought it to him with a fucked up idle, but there no chance the preexisting condition, ie the idle that was fucked for probably weeks had anything to do with the downfall of the motor? It HAD to be the 3 days after the adjustment he made right?

PS…your car is still a peice of shit and always will be, and your reasoning for getting that car, to look cool, fails on an epic scale.

PPS - maybe if you promised this guy who “fucked” your motor that youde pay him later…you promise!! hed have fixed your car, becuase everyone knows you have great credit in that area.

:ahh

That little guy literally made me “LOL” after reading that huge rant. :lol

Awesome icon isn’t it? :lol

Haha! same…it is a great little icon.

I’m sure he probably would have …

I was short on cash when he was coming up, but I got in touch with him to explain the situation (worst part about a state job is the wait between your start date and first paycheck - it’s like 5 weeks). He was kind/understanding enough to let me pay him via Paypal for the whole thing (which means he loses some $$ due to fees). I paid my $50 deposit, he tuned my car (I gave him the last $20 in cash I had as tip and to cover the Paypal fees), and he let me drive home without paying him on trust that I’d send him the remaining balance via Paypal, and I did.

I would recommend Dom to anyone.

Dom sounds like a stand-up guy, i know i sure as hell don’t work for free or nor would i expect someone else to do the same

If you can’t afford a proper tune in the first place, you get what you pay for. You can’t place the blame on anyone but yourself and if you can’t come up with an additional $15 to cover the full tune you should get your priorities straight before you go modding a car. That’s just my opinnion though.

In Travis’ defense, people who didn’t put a $50 deposit down were charged $150 for the tune rather than $110 ($50+$60). That was the case this year (I’m sure it was similar last year).

Whatever the case is, even $150 isn’t a lot of money (to me anyways it isn’t). Like I said, if your going to mod a car it isn’t cheap to begin with, we all know that. You show up with $45, you get what you pay for. The only person he should be blaming is himself for sending his motor out to lunch and not coming back.

The point is and should be…for 45 dollars your lucky if a tuner wiped his ass on your door handle normally

let me get this straight, you brought 45 bucks to dom and expected him to fix your car completely?? money is money, you get what you pay for, stop acting like a 12 year old kid who just got his first bicycle (your shit is not the coolest on the block). accept the fact that you ran your car into the ground (no i dont mean literally with scissor jacks).

sounds like dom was gracious enough to look at your fucking car let alone try and fix it. oh and of course your car conviently blew up a few days after dom touched it, so automatically fingers get pointed at him, common now. thats bullshit and you know it. reccomend whoever you want, but dont run someones name into the ground for things that were your own fault.

go buy a vespa hopefully you can manage something like that, subarus seem kind of complex for the way your brain thinks.

This is getting bad, we now have people signing up to the site solely for the purpose of bashing Travis

Fixed.
