Yep I thought about posting it there but figured they would just blast Josh over the whole situation.

He had shop insurance, but while expanding it got dropped to re-do the coverage. Back timing.

I'm not a turbo guy, and haven't dealt with KY-Turbo but I see him post here a lot and he does some amazing work. I hate to see this happen to anyone, good luck getting everything straightened out Josh, we're rooting for you.

Guys I honestley do not know what to say other than, THANK YOU ALL.
It means a great deal to me that there are People and Shops out there that are willing to help out where they can, and it has helped too.

There is a long road ahead of KY-Turbo Inc. One that I wouldn't wish on anyone. We will make it though. I have poured too much of my time and life into Building my shop and reputation to what it is to let this bring it all to a screaming halt.

I am grateful that I have some very good customers that have stood in there with me, and given me the time to make things right across the board.

Once gain, Thank You.

Sent some $$ your way. With stuff like this, you really need an insurance agent you can trust to take care of you, provide all the proper coverages, and point out all the gaps. Good luck with everything.

Lol! Doubt he gets to anyone from here again. Funny thing is the amount supposedly taken is close to what people say he took from him!

Surprised no one has stomped a mud hole in his *** and walked it dry yet, that will be the only way anyone who got taken will ever get any satisfaction in this deal which really sucks.
