word for word...so I guess theres always two sides to the story??
Their is a reason why all their major dealers have dropped them and their main front office was all **** canned. I would think at this point MP is grasping for straws and making excuses. I guess all the other dealers that dropped them owe 4000 as well

Once again read this post as well....

Also its nice the folks at Mike's Turbo/MP will talk to you since they are not selecting to answer any of their customers calls for over a month and then some.....consider yourself lucky.

Like I said, always two sides to the story. He didnt sent it yet so Im going to try and get my money back and see what happens. I told him he could keep the 28$ shipping charge. Ill put the 575 towards a turbonetics. If he honors a refund.

He said he didnt ship them yet, and he usually responds to my emails fast but he hasnt yet. Maybe they are out shipping them. I told them they could keep the 28$ paypal charge.

My MP70 units have only 500 miles on them, and they are the older (better) ones...both of them have a good deal of shaft play, and both blow oil like its goin out of style on the exhaust side. Hmm...now that my car is down, and reading this, im questioning re-installing them on my car.

what other turbo will bolt up identical to my MP T-70 units? I dont want to build a third turbo kit
