Great to see SP stepping up to the plate and taking this on. The car i just bought actually has a full Hi-Flo kit on it (not sure if its the one from the thread or a completely custom one off kit).

With SP taking over im sure you guys will recieve top notch service and parts. They are known as one of (if not THE) best in the supra world which as we all know is a pretty high dollar world.

Someone here has common sense... Considering this, I wouldn't let my guard down for a second: "Screw me once, your bad. Screw me twice..."

I've heard of SP's great reputation several times, but like Jammer says, it's too bad...

Hope to see everybody boosted real soon. Especially some South Florida people.

it looks like a hi flo kit but some things are wrong, like the open wastegate instead of connecting to the downpipe and the intercooler facing front in the grille, but the design is the same

yea, thats benny's car which my friend jesse bought and then sold to you. The kit on it is the production kit, everything was from the same batch as the stuff you guys all got. When did the intercooler get changed though?

The only differences on that kit is that it has a Master Power GT45 and a 4" downpipe with an open wastegate dump.

Well, Bill came by today with some parts. Unfortunately not enough to make any of you happy. He also gave me some explanations on other parts.

Bottom line is:

A/C Lines:

For anyone to get the a/c lines, they will need to remove the dryer tank and send it to us to be modified with a longer line. Now here is the tricky part, No one knows how long to make them. We would need "Smearin" Greg Kubik to bring his car by and let us jig one up on his car, seeing that he is the only local person with this kit on his car.

Turbos:

Need to be ordered. I highly suggest that we use Garrett over the Master Power.

Couplers:

Bill brought some by, not enough.

V Band Clamps:

Need to order. I can get in 2 days. (If supplier has in stock which they usually do)

Intercoolers:

3 are done, 1 needs to be ordered. I can get in less than a week.

Batt relocation kits need to be ordered.

Spark plug wires.

Need to be ordered and then cut to custom length using "Smearins" Gregs car. Basically we need a car with a kit on it to figure out the lengths.

Gaskets:

Each kit needs 1 T4 gasket and 6 WG gaskets, I can get in one day.

Cold pipes:
Ready to go, need to be picked up at fabricator by Marko.

BOVs:
Need to be ordered

WGs:

Need to be ordered, I am a Tial Dealer so no prob.

Air Filters:

I have some in stock

Downpipes:

All have been delivered except for one to 68maro, I have that DP here. No 4" DPs have ever been jigged so we would again need a car here to do so.

Headers:

Bill brought by a few sets ready to go. All however except one set have been shipped so we are good on these.

Crossover...... same as headers.

Rad support:

Bill brought one over, I need two though! There are more in storage.

Vac Lines?

Neither Marko nor Bill knows anything about this.????

Heat shields:

Have them.






So there is the bad news.....

Now for the good news. Marko guarantees that he will make good on this. He was very surprised to hear that there were no WGs or BOVs. Seems there was a massive lack of communication between him and Bill. IF you guys want to forget about the spark plug wires and just get them youselves... he will take $50 off of the balance due he said..... (I guess the wires cost $50??) Marko is going to bring over some funds to order all of these parts with on Monday or Tues. Marko and Bill both feel terrible about this whole mess and how out of hand the situation became. They both are very willing to and eager to put some closure to this. They just both needed a kick in the *** to get started it seems and that is my job!!



Im doing the best that I can!

thankx man, i doubt anyone will do the spark plug wires themselves, the vacuum lines are the type u can just buy online right? so that doesnt matter. other then that all u have to do is order some little things and get the intake pipes and we would hvae most of the kit finished, sounds good

Yeah, its really the a/c lines that will be the major problem.

Thanks for the update Larry and the good *** kickin!! Yea the ac is gonna be a pain in the ***. How much is the canister if we want to pay a core fee if something like that could be figured out for maybe future kits? I would pay a core fee and then send my canister in? Anyway glad to hear there is closure coming.
