I was quoted $680 + $40 shipping (funny it only cost me 25 to ship to him). Ne ways..

I shipped the Turbo to BNR on Jan 3rd. Under the impression it'ld take 1 week turn around.. I asked multiple times. January 9th the Turbo arrives and I'm told mid next week It'll ship.. January 12th I recieve a phone call about him not having the correct compressor housing. and he'll order them it'll be in on Friday of that week. January 24th email.. still on order hopefully next week it'll ship..January 31st. Now the Turbo is done.. but they overported the Turbine housing.. says he has to send me a port matched exhaust manifold and a custom gasket. (well yea.. you messed up my product.. you're going to have to fix it right?) Told the Turbo will ship early next week.. meaning like Monday or Tuesday of this week. .that's early.. Wednesday is mid week and thursday friday are late week to me.



Feb 5th.



I'm suppose to send my manifold to them because of their mistake... oke I can live with that.. I'm getting a port matched manifold no biggie.



Feb 7th (today)



wow .. all of a sudden i'm at a 840.00 turbo.. hrmm Should I just refuse this ask for my money back keep the bloody turbo and do a damn hks manifold with some sort of t04?!?!



if you were in my shoes.. what would you do.. I really suck at being an ******* but damn i feel like i'm getting yanked all over the place..



help.. advice.. please

 

btw this was for a BNR stage 3 w/ 360 degree thrust bearing. S5 turbo upgrade.

 

I'd say its his mistake so you should only have to pay the quoted price.

 

IF that's so that the wheel was shot he knew that whole time. I dunno it just on my nerves that I have an extra 100.00 bill added without any knowledge of it.



He also contradicts himself in his emails today saying that he sent the turbo then telling me he wanted to inform me that the turbo was shipped COD before he sent it out. mm kay. Had he just emailed me something three weeks ago saying it'ld be an extra 100.00 I would have sent a money order or whatever because I'ld know and it wasn't just an added bonus for having my turbo sit at his shop for almost a month.

 

**** him. You dont have to pay for there mistakes. He quoted u a price and now he is trying to scheme you for like 300 bucks. Tell him send me my **** back and ill pay for what i wanted not for this extra **** you trying to bullshit me on. See **** like this gets me mad thas why i dont trust mechanics. or any of those peeps unlses they come highly recomended nah mean. Im sorry for wat happened but hes wrong and u write. iight good luck

You gotta learn how to be an *******, ESPECIALLY around mechanics no offense to the mechanics here.. but I fix computers and it's so goddamn tempting to make up a huge story of complications to charge even more money..so I know how easy it is.



You got a quote. If he makes you pay more, no deal. Get your **** back, and he should replace any parts he fucked up while trying to work on your car.

 

Now i'm down right annoyed and just wrote a lovely little email to BNR.





remember I spent 720 for my Turbo with shipping for the Stage 3. That's 5 dollars short of the Stage 4. Which replaces the turbine wheel!?!!?! 45 - 50 would have given me a larger turbo (dont' know if I needed it but i'ld have had the option) vs 100.00 to put a stock turbine wheel on it. that's ridiculous. I'm very eager to hear a reply from him about this.. To think he came highly recommended..

 

wow, I hope everything works out for ya!

 

that sucks just deal directly with him and hope everything works out
