Then scythenc pmed me and said man check out this thread on my350z about turbonetics recall yadada and then i pmed reggie and told him my situation and everything. he is basically telling my turbo is out of warranty and read the warranty card and then i got pissed obviously cause my buddy scythenc was taken care of with no issue's in my same situation.... i think this is the right thing to do. correct me if i am wrong. i can send my old (rebuildable) turbo back to turbonetics and they can drop my invoice and refund half the money that i already payed or just simply drop the rest of the invoice. you guys get a turbo back and i get my invoice dropped and then i will be in the same boat as the rest of the turbonetics customers, helped SCYTHENC has simply explained that he was helped in my exact situation as far as warranty...... like i said i am not making "idle threat's" reggie, i am going to contact someone higher cause we are obviously not getting anywhere. this matter should be handled proffesionally, not with ego's or power trips in the way....
i am sorry if you feel i am crapping on your thread, i really don't mean to! i just don't know what else to do. you have to understand if any parts on this car break i have to go through turbonetics. and if i am having issue's with the service or sales manager "personally" i don't want to rep your company posativly. anyway i am awaiting reggie's side of the story cause you just herd scythenc's side of the story and we are in the same boat
oh and one more thing, i think the main problem is you guys have half my money and you don't want to lose out on the sale (1,800.00)and i completly understand why. but you shouldn't post that and expect me to let it slide, why should i be the only one that pays full price for a new turbo? or i would have gladly taken a rebuild. anyway i just want this think sorted out fairly. i am not asking for something out of reach nor am i making anything up, just a couple weeks short of getting my turbo rebuilt for free.... anyone feel free to contact me from turbonetics exept reggie. thanks

So what if the guys mom called.
Before we all made a stink about all the smoking turbos there were a bunch of guys with blown seals that were not being taken care of. Its great that they are being taken care of now without laying out a ton of cash but sucks for guys that were already forced to pay for the same issue.
I don't know what else took place but if you wipe away all emotional BS the guy seems to be more than reasonable asking for only half of the cost to be waived. I hope he gets taken care of. To me that would show what TN customer service is really about.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Let me first give you an update for those of you that have gotten an order reference number within the last few weeks or so. The next wave of turbos will be going out late this week. I do appreciate those of you that have been extremely patient during this whole process.
However I must confess that this has been extremely difficult task. Dont get me wrong I do love helping people as I am a car guy myself. But dealing with people who have unrealistic expectations ruins it for everyone. Everyone here that has purchased our turbo kit have got a little yellow warranty card with their purchase. That card clearly states that the warranty is non-tranferrable. In fact to the best of my knowledge the only warranities that are transferrable are for used cars. Let me get back on point here. Is it a great gesture that Turbonetics is upgrading existing turbos at NO CHARGE but this isnt a factory recall. They are plenty of members here that have dry bearing housing turbos that are working perfectly fine. On another note I cant do anything if some other member here on the boards slipped through the cracks regarding our warranty process. Thats how life works sometimes.

I see that time and time again when it comes to the Turbonetics warranty/return policy. People have unrealistic expectations and many time try to game the system and threaten by bad mouthing the company on forums.

No way, your MOM uses the phone!!!!
This post is from MOM and Harry would prefer I stay out of this but as usual I have to comment if someone wants to bring me in. I feel this is trivial; however, if I can talk to Reggie why can't I post my opinions on a forum. I feel a need for this thread to understand that we have not posted half truths or left anything out. The time line explained in the anti-Mom post was not correct, it was only a few weeks that had lapsed between our purchase and the new situation wherein Turbonetics started covering "non-warranty" turbos.
In addition, please be advised that the reason I spoke to Reggie in the beginning (I don't need a reason, but want to clarify) is that Harry and his MOM are business partners, I am not just "Mom", I am a sports agent as well and his business partner. The women in my family have been running top companies for decades. Harry and I were also looking into possibilities of obtaining venture capital from from several companies on the East Coast to open a fully stocked/service Import Shop. Reggie and I discussed, before the turbo was ordered, the companies policies on "buy in" and discounts and so forth, so as to have a better understanding as to what our costs would be as vendors. We are still trying to finalize contracts and such with our investors. This is why I have no hesitation in calling anyone in the car world and conducting business.
Import cars have been a part of our life since 1999 and before Harry's Dad died in 2002 of a sudden cardia arrythmia, he was a major car enthusiast. We had 6 Z cars over the years and this was his passion. When we continue to live this life (cars) it somehow for us keeps a part of him alive. I love cars and love 350Zs as Harry Sr. did and as my son does and will continue to show my love for this industry regardless of who wants to criticize me for being a MOM. The way I took that post was negative.
In closing, I hope that anyone on this thread can realize in this day and age that some of us are more than "Moms." I am more than a parent, I am a friend and a business partner and if you don't like that I am sorry for you.
In the end Turbonetics will take care of their customers because they know that customers have to be top priority. Turbos are built and can be defective and can continue to be defective. If you don't stand behind your product you will not succeed and they know this.
I hope everyone has a safe and Happy 4th and can get on with more important posts on this forum, this one is well done. Threre really is nothing more to say.

Fair enough. Reggie has stated that they will not cover turbos that have been "transferred". I guess that's their policy in regard to this seal issue and now its stated. It is what it is. Not necessarily a good thing but it is what it is.

just in case you needed to know. the shipping to Turbopnetics was 150.00when the defective turbo was originally sent in.
the total due according to Danzio was just at 1800.00, which included shipping. he then dropped the shipping amount and tax since we are out state and you cannot charge tax for out of state residents.

By your rationale you could simply go around buying up any and every turbo and sending it back for a free upgrade before reselling it. You never paid a Turbonetics dealer for a Turbonetics turbo kit. You were never even covered by a turbonetics warranty. So, until you bought a new unit from Turbonetics you were never even an actual customer.
This offer was extended to customers who bought Turboentics 350z turbo kits, not any joe who bought a single unit as a replacement for a used or questionable second hand kit. ANY help offered to you by Turbonetics customer service is of their own free will and could be considered a personal favor.
It seems you've obviously handled this in the incorrect manner by walking into this stating "YOU OWE ME A NEW TURBO". That's just laughable. Now you're threatening legal action because you demanded a special favor and weren't given one? I hope you do, and I hope Danzio Performance takes you to small claims court for the turbocharger you recieved but haven't paid them for. Where I come from that would be considered stealing.
YOU are what is wrong with the American consumer. YOU are why companies don't offer favorable warranties and attempt to give good customer service. People like YOU are the ones that ruin opportunities to help customers like Turbonetics has presented here. And, if customer service standards are tightened and Turbonetics can no longer help their legitimate customers because of your complains, I expect all of the legitimate customers here to blame YOU for this.
You are wrong. You've been wrong from the start, and you'll still be wrong. Go ahead and recoup your losses by selling your used kit, you know the one that you have no idea who installed or how it was treated by the original owner. The one with the "bad" BoV.
You're coming across in all this as just a spoiled rich brat who's been given everything he has in life without having to work or be thankful for a single thing. Realize that you're owed nothing, and by handling this in the way you have you should in all rights get just that.
I suggest you take your "business" to someone like Greddy or APS, you know, someone who wouldn't even bother talking to you if you had an issue.

We are still trying to finalize contracts and such with our investors. This is why I have no hesitation in calling anyone in the car world and conducting business.
Import cars have been a part of our life since 1999 and before Harry's Dad died in 2002 of a sudden cardia arrythmia, he was a major car enthusiast. We had 6 Z cars over the years and this was his passion. When we continue to live this life (cars) it somehow for us keeps a part of him alive. I love cars and love 350Zs as Harry Sr. did and as my son does and will continue to show my love for this industry regardless of who wants to criticize me for being a MOM. The way I took that post was negative.
In closing, I hope that anyone on this thread can realize in this day and age that some of us are more than "Moms." I am more than a parent, I am a friend and a business partner and if you don't like that I am sorry for you.
In the end Turbonetics will take care of their customers because they know that customers have to be top priority. Turbos are built and can be defective and can continue to be defective. If you don't stand behind your product you will not succeed and they know this.
I hope everyone has a safe and Happy 4th and can get on with more important posts on this forum, this one is well done. Threre really is nothing more to say.
In addition, please be advised that the reason I spoke to Reggie in the beginning (I don't need a reason, but want to clarify) is that Harry and his MOM are business partners, I am not just "Mom", I am a sports agent as well and his business partner. The women in my family have been running top companies for decades.

Sounds to me like you're raising a lawyer.
