Ok there turbos in the New extreme (427) kit do not I said DO NOT have 3 inch inlets going into the tubros. There new turbos have the same size inlets as the old ones. Ok I lied there 6.5mm bigger... My new turbos I have are 81mm(3inch)inlets and the stock APS turbos are 63mm(2.75inch).
The intake tubes are 63.5mm (stock old inlets) and the new Extreme and upgraded inlets are 70mm. So why or how everyone thinks there new turbos are 3 inches is beside me..
Now I have $300 inlets I have to gain 11mm in size. I'm so ******* pissed right now!!!!!!!!
So how there making 1000hp with turbos that have 2.75 inch inlets is ******* crazy, and I call bullshit!!!

Because everyone refered to them as the new bigger 3 inch inlets or the bigger 427 turbos.. I dont know alot about turbos by how do you get a 1.06AR without 3 inch inlet.

What happened with you?
I do know there a lot of good sponsors on the board. There are many sponsors that post daily that actually answer questions that people ask.
Don't give up hope.

That is a pretty generalized statement. There will always be people unhappy with a sponsor and/or company. APS is what it is. Don't fault the others for the people who screw it up for everyone else.

My personal dealing with a sponsor is in the resolution stage. Actually a resolution of the first resolution so I'm not going to post my experience until everything is settled.

You're right, there are a lot of helpful ones, but there are some that just seem fishy to me. (APS, Racetronix are my least favorite and I would never buy anything from them based on their posts and reputations here.)

Everyone at some point has been mad/pissed off at a shop or company. Hopefully the shop or company will make it right.

you come and go like the wind. APS on this site has a bad name because of you. the way you answer questions is with another question or a statment that is so far out there. and calling you on the phone doesnt help. the lady at the front desk says i need to talk to the dealer i bought it from in the states. well i bought it from you. so how the hell do i get help?
