Holy F**K .. what is wrong with UPS out in the other states? wow i'd have a heart attack if something ended up at my door like that.
Anyways its good to see more HR's out there being turbo'd! Could that also mean the economy is getting back on track! lol

Messing around. Congrats man .. good luck with the build.

Congrats Mo! I wonder if the top can be bent back straight. I have a Greddy FMIC that has a bent top like that too.

Damn I want a TT kit for my HR but the wife kinda trips when she finds out what they cost. With a baby on the way it's even worse but I keep telling her how much the baby is going to enjoy riding in it. She's not buying it =(
GL on your build!!

Thumbs up

^ Thanks guys! Trust me getting the kit was not easy it cost me a leg and an arm you just have to be really patient :-). Plus I still need more parts such as

255 Walbro fuel pump
(2) HKS Version III Bov
Osiris ECU Reflash
Spec 3 Stage 3 Clutch

Installation choices: CJ motorsports, Sound Performance, THM Motorsports.

Honestly still got a lot to think about before install don't know what I'm going to do yet.. and I still need to purchase the rest of the parts. I know that I would like to have Charles at CJ motorsports do the install and tune again will see...

* Just got off the line with Dan at Speed Concepts he scheduled a pickup for the Greddy FMIC before 11:00 A.M. CST with UPS. Keep you posted!

I find it hard to believe that UPS is damaging EVERY intercooler that leaves Speed Concepts, in the exact same place.

What if you propose an extra job/side hustle providing extra income before the baby's born? Afterward, start ordering parts one by one until you have em all then finally order the Recaro baby seat to top it all off!
Just saying?!!!

You have to be FREAKIN kidding me! When are they going to learn? Person after person with the same crap! Good luck getting the new IC! I made sure mine went out ASAP! I received the 2nd one with a very minor bend in the IC! I gave up!

^ It was wrapped extremely well by Dan at Speed Concepts and so far he's giving pretty good customer service. Although still the tip were the bracket sits was dropped hard enough by UPS to were it damaged it slightly. I told him to make sure the next one is perfect and wrapped to the MAX!!!!! I know Dan at Speed Concepts will make sure of this..

Hello Mo, I spoke to Jessica at UPS employee number 2960. She said that the first pick up attempt will be tomorrow, please call me if you don't see the driver in the afternoon.

I am truly sorry for anyone that has purchased a turbo kit and received a damaged intercooler. So far I've sold over 30 kits, and 3 intercoolers have been damaged.

Anyhow, here are a few pictures of Mo's intercooler before it left our store. The reason I am no longer a vendor is because we are almost out of TT kits and cannot afford to stay a vendor as it is very costly. Again I am very sorry and hope you can understand.

Mo, please call me tomorrow if you do not see UPS, Jessica (employee #2960) said that the first pickup attempt will be tomorrow and I will call them again.
