Your comment that they are all Asians was way out of place and seemed to only be an implication that they are a good shop because of that. He is not the only one that was confused by it.

Everyone I have met at SGP has been cool, past and present, employee and client; and I have not had a real problem with any of them. I hate to see the fighting but I know from being at SGP that most people are not getting the full picture and it sucks that no one will ever see it on here.

never did i touch a coolant line that i am getting blamed for. and the sealant that i put on the oil cooler fittings was something that was condoned at the shop. and also, your gasket for your fuel pump assembly was put in when i assembled the pump reason why i remember is cause i removed the old oring and installed the new one before i dropped the pump back in . funny how you took it up to sgp to get tuned and one of the techs was working in that area? coinicidence? i think not. i think its funny how everyone up there talks **** behind my back but puts on a front like we are cool. i thought everyone up there understood why i left the company. but i guess not. i guess **** talking about my work and blaming everything on me is the way to go. i could be an *** and put everyone on blast that works there, but i wont. reason being is cause im not gonna stoop to that level.
I don't ever recall mentioning what problems were found.

I also never said my car was damaged.

I never mentioned I "picked up power." However I was having some boost & A/F issues and removing the x-pipe has seemed to help.

They most likely did. Customer(s) spending $10k, $20k, $50k+ is a bit more important than a DIY exhaust system.

^ I disagree. A customer doing simple things like an exhaust could later become your $10K/$20K build customer.

If they want to treat people poorly because of the simplicity of the job they want done then that's to be frowned upon not encouraged.

While I see your point and agree somewhat. I was refering to taking care of the customers at hand first that have dropped large amounts of money. Take a hit/lose the customer that is bringing in products and only wanting labor done.

i know you didnt mention anything. i found out what i supposedly did wrong. i am only wanting to clear things up before they get mixed up by certain people. i posted that because it was a clear shot to whoever knew i worked on the car. its not rocket science. i was put on your car because i did the best work out of any of the techs there.

and to whomever is reading this from sgp, note this. never have i talked **** or talked down on anyone at the shop. i even told people when i quit it was because i was ready to get out of the craziness at the shop. i also stated to people when they asked me "where am i gonna go now?" my answer would be "you can still come here, mark knows his ****. im not taking that away from him. but im leaving."

Ask yourself, why aren't they interacting with my350z. Every Nissan performance shop is on here.
You also gotta ask yourself, why are people sending their z's to sgp from all pver the country?? Cuz they are GOOD! Careful reading these treads. Kyle Puckett just barely got a get out of jail free card from them, due to his dirty deals--casued a lot of issues for SGP that they are honoring...regardless of the cost to them...rumor has it he stole over $600,000.00..that sucks! Research your info before you make an opinion. I know they stand by their word and guarentee..now that Kyle is gone!!

It seems as though SGP showed some prejudice towards his brown skin? (determined by the OPs SN) and the asians did not....
Give me a break....that's just stupid talk. When it comes SGP, speed and preformance, they are too busy to notice color...get over yourself!!! y is everything about race???? so stupid

Is this Kyle Puckett, who tried to bankrupt SPG with stealing funds, taking money from potential customers, making promises you did not intend to keep???

Wow....4 posts and you slinging mud like this...posting Kyle's first and last name? Maybe the Mods should look into who you are...I am sure you have another Sig.

I am sure you were there when Kyle was ALLEGEDLY doing all this...so you know for sure and not passing on gossip. IF you are not Mark or Kyle..you don't know for sure what went on...Mark told me his side and Kyle gave me his side...and I still don't have enough info to blame one or the other...so I wonder how you do. This is old news and its not worth getting into again !!!
