10k too much?? wtf...livid!!!!
start by saying im in the army...in afghanistan right now. billing address and shipping address are both in the states.....
ok so yesterday all day long i was trying to get my APS TT Extreme kit able bought. i got sent an invoice from the seller on google for the kit and an exhaust for 10k. so i typed in my information and waited. 15 mins later google sends me another email saying that my account will not be authorized by them.
so it turns out the place i put for the shipping address has to match the address for billing with google or else they get skittish. i was trying to have the stuff sent to my gf's house in the next town over from my billing address.
so we tried again...new invoice and everything. i typed in everything the RIGHT way. however...this time, i got to where you enter your CC info which is the last step before they go through their verify process. wont even let them verify it just said cc is not valid....wtf??
so im pissed now...
so im like. F*** it lets try paypayl. so im wanting this kit like now so i decided since i dont have 10k in my paypal acct ill do a echeck and have it sent immediately. type everything in. seems it went through...hooray!!...go to bed. wake up in the morning...CANCELLED. now paypal is sensing something fishy it says...
could this be because my ip address and computer location are currently in afghanistan. how can i resolve this to make sure i can get my damn Twin Turbo kit already. if i were to call my bankand explain the situation, do you think we could get something resolved??
help...

It has nothing to do with the computer you are using, or where you are using it. It's a safety precaution taking by banks so that they can limit fraud to a minimum. They see it as someone could have stolen your credit card purchased a turbo kit and want it shipped to some random address.
And not only that but there could have been a limit on your account as well, (then again fraud protection) so that someone couldn't charge an absurd amount and get it shipped somewhere else and you're oblivious.

I solved the problem by contacting Chase Bank, and providing an alternative shipping address.

Call the 1-800 number on the back of your credit card, get everything sorted out.
Get your mailing address added as a "verified shipping address" under your credit card comments field

I sell parts over the phone and internet and this is what you need to do. Just call the bank and tell them you need to add another authorized address.

Sounds like a fun project. But I would suggest consulting with them and also bringing it back to GRD for the final tune. You want to do a cost/benefit analysis. I've seen plenty of ppl do an install themselves, but end up spending more $$$ due to messing up something during the install. Just take your time or have GRD do it. They back all their work so at least you'll have peace of mind.

Seriously though, you are going to need a tune the way it is. You may have posted all this, but are you installing this on a built motor? Is the motor done yet? I would highly recommend having them do the install. I would hate for you to spend the big money and have an issue with something. Having GRD do the install will save a TON of potential headache down the road. Not only that, you can have confidence the install is correct. Nothing is worse than you installing it, getting it to your tuners shop and having an install related issue keeping you from getting tuned.
I have done the install on these kits, I have had a shop do a complete build and install, I have built a motor for these kits personally with the help of a close friend, had my car tuned numerous times, gone through a couple EMS... basically been down the road before. You are at a point where all the components you will need are available and the path is pretty clear on what needs to be done. Just a matter of correctly assembling those pieces. You can read about all the issues people are having with self installs, just in the last week or two... I don't need to mention specific names. I hate to see these types of issues. I feel lucky on my recent build that everything worked out, but it could have just as easily not. If the shop installs it, it is on their shoulder's to make it right.
Whatever you choose, I wish you the best of luck
