First of all, I know this probably belongs in the Vendor section, but I also know that not everyone frequents that forum and most of my dealings are with 3rd gen owners... If it needs to be moved, please do!



I'll make this as short as I can. I'd just like to take the opportunity to clear up any confusion there may be between the names. Bear with me.



DaVinci Motorworks IS NOT Bi-State Customs. Only ONE previous member of Bi-State Customs is affiliated with DaVinci Motorworks. His name is RON and he is the master technician. Not Eric. Those of you who may have had bad dealings with Eric PLEASE DO NOT affiliate him with my shop. He is local, is a friend but is in NO-WAY linked to my shop. I know very little of his business at Bi-State, and quite frankly I don't care. There are 4 of us that put DaVinci Motorworks together. RON, DON, MARK and MYSELF. If you had a problem with Bi-State leave it there. If you got parts from there, we'd still be happy to help you if there are any problems, but you'll have to help me understand as I DID NOT OWN that shop, nor did I work there. It IS where I met Ron, and did business with him, but that's it. Eric worked there for a while, but was not there when Ron closed down.



I urge ANYONE who has a question, or concern to CALL ME. CALL the shop. I'm trying to run a business here.. Not trying to **** people over. I've already pointed everyone out to the thread where we had bad dealings. I'm being honest. If I didn't wan't people to know we're not perfect I wouldn't do that. PLEASE lighten up.



If you don't like me or my business, or someone at my shop for that matter, please don't slander me. Talk to me about it or something. I'm a full time Staff Sergeant in the US Army. I'm no crook and I'm far from shady.



With that said, I'm closing the Group Buy for the single turbo kits. If you didn't get in I apologise. I no-longer will offer them here until after Martin's kit is delivered and installed. I'll let his parts speak for themselves.



Feel free to PM me or email me if you have any questions.

Just so everyone knows, I'd trust Justin with a lot more than I'd trust my own family. When I purchased a used PMS from him, I was in a bind - I needed something to help the fuel but couldn't afford to buy ANYTHING. At the time, I was a total newbie, with less than 200 posts on NoPistons. He had no reason to trust me or to trust that I would repay him. He let my debt sit for a LONG while until I found myself in a place where I could repay him. All the while I was happily using the PMS. He never once bothered me about it, never spoke up, never even hinted that he was looking for repayment. He just trusted me and my judgement and was looking to help an enthusiast however he could.



Would I trust him with thousands of my dollars I sent for a turbo kit?

UNDOUBTEDLY.



If there was ever a delay in shipping, manufacturing, etc., would I be worried of the product delivery?

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!



Would I back this man's word without ever meeting him in person?

<span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>You're damn right I would.</span>









P.S. I did eventually repay my debt.

I've had the pleasure of knowing Justin personally. He really is a standup guy. I remember after i got my car, newb and all, i threw up a thread with pics, and he noticed the hole in the IC duct from the stock airbox was left open. After that he offered to give me the one that came with his M2 airbox for nothing, and even came to install it for me (i really was a moron, lol). Like Sinful7 said, he had no reason to trust me or give me parts, but he was j/ out to help a new member to the FD community. He's been a big help on a lot of other projects, and im still lookin for a way to repay him IMO, theres no reason why i wouldnt trust Justin, and i plan on having DaVinci make me a turbo kit once im un-broke, lol
