I am sure you had great experiences, who did you deal with there? Have you had to deal with them lately?? I don't see any VRT in your signature like it used to be

Did you sign a contract and agree to those prices?
If you did, then that's that. But if you didn't then I think you've got a basis to file a complaint...
Either way, a VRT rep should really explain why you paid so much for that work, contract or no contract... - did they install a turbo and didn't tell you

No I did not get a turbo. I dealt with MR A directly. No I did not sign a contract for that work. I signed an older contract when we originally agreed to do some work, but that work was never done because we went a different path. I love the work that was done, but everyone is saying I paid way too much and I would really love to see an itemized expense breakdown showing how much I paid for everything.

Now, I have also dealt with Mr. A directly and have never had any problems. Scott and Mark have since broadened their horizons with a new company for reasons of their own and both still remain in good standing with Mr. A and VRT. Naturally, I will follow my mechanic (Mark) and my buddy and initial contact (Scott). I have no hard feelings for Mr. A and/or VRT at all. Don't read too much into it fellas. ![](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/icon44.gif)

yeah, just to clarify to people, I had the headers and the intake before hand. I bought the exhaust, coilovers, and sway bars from them. So the almost 6K was for purchase of the exhaust, coilovers, and sway bars, and for installation of everything mentioned. To be fair so everyone knows, the exact amount was $5,550. Not 6K exactly, but close to.

A VRT rep has yet 2 chime in on this subject, so maybe people should stop assuming things before they hear it from the horses mouth.....the experience i had w/ mike and VRT was awesome, and the amount i paid for everything that i had done was very very reasonable, so dont jump to conclusions on this subject untill someone from VRT speaks!

If I'm not mistaken, VRT likes using JIC coilovers, so that's $2K right there. Then exhaust and sways ~$1500. So that's ~$2K for installing everything. And headers aren't the easiest things to install on this car.
