Great Build man! I love that color, and my favorite of the 4th gens.

Oh, the holley boost control is just around the corner guys. Ive been told by multiple people now at holley its VERY close.

 

Man you car looks beatiful.
Mine is in the body shop waiting to receive a quaisar blue too. It going to be a turbo project too but is 99 z.

 

Well after dyno day one, we had some good and some bad. The good news is the car is getting closer to tuned and was making big hp, the bad news is that after the 3rd pull, I noticed a noise, only to find out that the compressor wheel was wobbling/had come loose, and the nut holding it on seemed like it had backed off.

I have to say, I do not like to bash people on the internet, but Forced Inductions has failed on so many levels with everything we have dealt with them on. To start with they have **** poor customer service, screwed us on some v bands, now their junk gt-88 mystery turbo comes apart as a brand new unit after only 3 dyno pulls. We will be replacing this garbage unit with a Precision and have it back on the dyno shortly.
*rant over*

 

Wow! I've never done business with them but i have been hearing a lot about them lately...and it hasn't been good! Anyway, curious to see how the car is gonna run once it's all done with tuning! Hopefully you don't run into any other problems. Goodluck!

wow sorry to hear about that! yeah i stopped dealing with them after their "in stock" turbo showed up almost 5 months after i ordered it.

 

Beautiful car man, that attention to detail is flawless and looks super clean! Quasar blue has always been my favorite 4th gen color also.

 

Sick color
Sick stance
Sick motor combo
Love the car man. Let us know how the final numbers turn out!

 

HHaaa!!! Don't tell me that , i sent the money to Force Inductions last week for my S480 and they told me that they have ansamble my unit. But now i'm scare about my desition.

 

I would put a cancel payment in with them or the credit card and go elsewhere. They are ok to deal with right up until they ship the product out (if they ship it out). Then, good luck getting ahold of them for ANYTHING...

Why are these guys still allowed as a sponsor on here?

 

This and 3 other threads kept me from buying the s475, I feel bad for the Guy but I'd rather not be another victim. Sorry hear about the issues, which pte are you going with?

 

I've done my business with rob over at modular turbo. The guy had my turbo to me in about a week and a half. Way better than the fi guys and their five month waiting game.

 

Problem is Rob and just about everyone else doesn't have the ability to build custom stuff. FI makes and machines turbos and parts for about 40 different vendors and shops. Not defending them but my point is until they either step it up or someone else competes there's not many options.

What fustrates me is FI can build just about anything and has a huge amount of knowledge they need to take single turbocharger sales more serious.

 

Yeah but when it takes five months to ship basic turbos like a turbonetics t76.... That's bullshit. My bw s480 was at my door steps a week and a half after talking to rob. If you going to sell it be up front. Don't give me the run around, telling me it will be two weeks then it turns into months. I have to build cars and can't be waiting around. But I'm done hi jacking this thread. That company has had that problem for years.

 

I agree.

 

Man nice job, sorry to hear about the turbo problems..

 

For viewing pleasure!

 

Whoa. What the? Is that the "Budget" GT88?

 

Yep.....loose compressor nut and all.

Real budget!

 

Ouch, S488 time!

 

try C.R.T for a turbo i have one of there HP91's with all the options its a killer turbo he might be able to fix your current one
