I know what you are saying.... But I know first hand how Coach cod have been fooled...Coach was the money behind this business... I too own a few business that I have no idea of the difference between products.... I am just the name and money person. As long as the books balance.... Well you know what I am saying.

Like I said.... Coach knows as much as me about this stuff... Which is nothing to brag about... So I could see how he could have went into shock about this..... Which could have cause his MI.... Matter of fact... I am sure it did. He dumped alot of cash to start this business.

again, intense... you have to realize the perspective you have when stating about 'looking for logos'... if you don't know all turbos are supposed to have logos, you wouldn't look for them.

you being savvy, you know, but coachk might not. You have to approach the issue as a layman, not a dude who sells turbos

I hear what Darren and Robin say.. but i don't see coach dumping that much money in his business to have it ruined by knock off turbo's.. anyone have a picture of the knockoff turbo's? maybe they have a fake Garrett printed on them? i mean if the owner of the car sent pictures off to Garrett.. he must have thought more than ok the words arn't printed on the turbo.. something is wrong

So, what was the catalyst that started these Camaro guys in search for verification that the turbos were indeed Garrett?

holy can of f*cking worms opened up with this thread.

What a shame. Sorry to hear about all the people scammed and truly hope that Coach is ok and had nothing to do with the wrong doing in the situations.

Might this thread top the MrS thread or SGP.. time will only tell.

i of course could quickly say "i told you so" to coachk...and also easily could make an argument that he got what he deserves(business closing, not his health problems BTW) for not listening to us over the years now on what we saw from JT.
I however though past pMs i noticed in coachk sincerity, maturity(ovbiously) and the fact that he was a nice person, so i am willing to stay naive and bet he had not enough knowledge and experience to know he was part of JT scamming him as well....its possible that this might come bite me, but thats what makes this situation more sad. I bet like doug says maybe jt sucker him into getting so deep in his fockup...and like robin says, through his wife and himself, he knows he has responsability cause ignorance is not really a defence in court, which contributed to his health issues.

I am not sure what the catalyst was for the camaro guys but i am going to on the same things we have seen to this point on other builds...sub part turbo kit, routing of piping, routing of oil lines, cut corners on parts, drivability issues with cels, and someone that knows just enough to know its a fake garret turbo.

Wow @ today's info & developments. Yet I'm an @sshole for calling out a JT nuthugger whose responses were reminiscent of Navygolf during the VRT days.

yeah, this tops everything but VRT at this point and only because the level of fraud was so much higher through VRT.

In terms of harm to this community, I think this is the top.

Holy Shitstorm Batman!!!

I haven't spoken to JT or Tom in a few months, and I recently tried calling them both to see if they were going to be attending the PRI show this year. I never heard back from either. A few weeks passed, and I tried again....still couldn't get ahold of either.

Yesterday, I called JB to see if he was gonna go to PRI this year, and he enlightened to this thread and what was going on!

I am floored by all this!!!! It looks ugly........not as ugly as the witch hunt has been though. I have never been wronged by either of these guys, and I hate to think this is all true. The video is not as bad as I thought it was going to be, but it isn't good either.

I know nothing about what's happened, and I truly feel for JZurita! Hopefully, there is a good resolution to his "NIGHTMARE."

As for Tom's Heart attack......oh my!!!! That is horrible and terrifying...... from what I know of Tom, he is a good man and you hate to hear of anyone having a heart attack. I think he and Jeremy had great intentions on making turbo kits and keeping things small. I am sorry to hear that they have closed the shop.

I wish either one of them would contact me; I hate to have to read all this about a couple of people I have been close to.
