well there's my answer. Lol. He still currently only has an Axel back and one of the bolts that bolt the wastegate to manifold are missing. It looks to be on there pretty tight

whoop.. I can't make it there then. I'll be back at school. You might want to have chris come with you to modify your ptuning exhaust, so Kenny doesn't charge to an arm and a leg to whip out the welder. lol

if you really would like to save that money i can get it installed in a day. Turbocharges is going to charge i nice amount for the install im sure...did they give you a quote? just use that money you were going to spend and put it on a water/meth injection kit or whatever.

Ok, officially....TT is and has been WORSE than ZPI was during their falling out. Sorry have to say it. ScionSpeed is probably viaing for title of worst company next to TT, but it's a no brainer that I will never recommend TT to anyone coming to the F/I relm for Scions.

Worst Fitting
Worst Business practices
NON-creative (meaning bitting other companies style)
And not even close to being worth the hassle/wait

ScionSpeed... OLD SCHOOL... were they even a company? lol All they did was boost a tc with 18psi on stock motor, blew it, and then went bankrupt.

Yea, I'd say TurboToyotas wins hands down. Scion Speed boosted a car and then went belly up, but I don't think they screwed over nearly as many people as Todd has. At least when Scion Speed left, people knew they were done. Todd is pretty much done for, but continues to lie to people and screw them over.

Travis, you forgot to add all of his lies about shipping to your list (unless that falls under not being worth the hassle/wait).

That would fall under business practices.
