I love it, but its not a work in progress ANYMORE....it can either run correctly or it cant. To all of us we see all the parts correctly installed. We see tuning dates, dyno times and lots of progress, but you wont let us know whats going on. We can all only assume it runs just like all the turbo cars...sure you have boost but I bet it runs half ***. To me this thread looks just like another failed attempt to make our car run correctly on boost. Please don't debate this just show us whats up.

Your post is a fail.

Entitled no. But then again why make a thread, post teasers repeatedly, all this discussion and build up then not give a resolution other than what sums up to "oh yeah it runs ok BTW I might sell it" and leave it at that? With no resolution this whole thread is a fail.

Honestly with the lack of information from the builder and the client what else are we supposed to think other than that things really didn't go as expected? If it was as great as they expected we surely would have seen some info by now. Hell even if the thing exploded into a million bits I'd still have more respect for the builder if he let us know what's going on.

AFAIK everything form this builder seems to be vaporware. Headers not for sale yet even though he trash talked his competitor sikky endlessly. He promised back to back testing of his product and sikky's and that never materialized either. A ported and polished manifold also funnily enough on splats car and nobody else that I know of. A supercharger a year and a half in the making with a few teaser shots and a video clip of it driving then no more info way after it was supposedly done. Lets not even mention the AEM tuning solution and single turbo kit that was mentioned and still hasn't seen the light of day. With so many promises and so little results this shop makes a politician look like a saint.

Nobody would be on forums if every thread started with teasers, but never ended in a finished product. I agree with "Infinus" in that everyone who reads the thread wants to know how the project finally panned out. The whole purpose of a forum IMO is to gain and share information.

OK guys, I'm tired of repeating myself.

This thread is closed until Splat has an update. Splat, PM me when you want it re-opened to post in it again.
