update...got the car on the road today...only to limp it over to my buddys house to tune. it runs like poopoo. my buddy got drunk instead at an unexpected office party.. :gotme: so no tune today

i just drove it back to the gayrodge.... realized it is WAY too loud so i will make a pipe to attach to my exhaust tomoro.....i will fix some leaks as well...little odds and ends... and i should have a pretty good tune tomoro night. i know these unexpected setbacks SUCK...but... ehh

i just cant wait to mash that pedal.....i hear that turbo spool and i just wana boost. so bad. soooooo baaaaadddddd. it sounds like a BBC with a turbo and it give me a boner


bill u got an email btw

and i didnt bother with video today cuz the state of the car is not anything to brag about..... there will be good vid of the TUNED car...

edit: at VERY partial throttle...maybe 20%...the turbo spools at low rpms..... it reads no vaccum at like 2500rpms at ~30% throttle.,...(from the best of my recallection). in a nut shell...i can tell this is gona be WAY more responsive and less laggy than my trunk turbo last year. it should be instaspool... i cant imagine how fast the smaller 70mm with the .68a/r spools

Bill is taking the brunt of the shots here, but the reality is that he works for Marko. Hopefully this will all get resolved. I am not sure what Marko is doing about refunds, I would not assume anything. I am would be willing to pick up refund checks for folks let me know.

I don't think Marko even surfs ls1tech anymore otherwise he would be gettin all the ****. Hopefully Bill is relaying all the messages to MARKO. When was the last time Marko even posted here??? Does anyone know where he hangs out is it the corvette forums??? John you can pick up my refund check. Marko is supposed to call me and that was over a week ago?? they owe me just under 3400 dollars. they were fine with me getting the money back and not paying for the kit until I had received EVERYTHING. I am still waiting for a kit to show up at my door.

I live a state away from McMaster. I have ordered from them 15-20 times. Every time the package shows up the next afternoon on my doorstep. Every time, no exception.

Well, clearly you sent them money, and when you did, they sent you merchandise... However, the process might not work with a factor or two absent.

Folks, unless you can get your CC to do a charge back ya ain't getting a refund. I think that's pretty obvious by now. Little by little they're gonna ship out the incomplete kits (Marko said he'd never do that....RIIIIGHT) until all are delivered. I think the plan is that once everyone has their kits and is running around making lotsa boost, everyone will forget all about the delay, the lies and all the BS. RIIIIIGHT.

Marko buddy, folks may forgive but they won't forget. They shouldn't forget the way you've jerked everyone around and yet haven't had the ***** to come on here and give everyone a straight answer. Your customers deserve to speak to the man in charge and not his lackie.

They got PAID FOR it... By members here. Suppose they send everyone EVERYTHING tomorrow... How do they get out of NOT communicating with anyone for this long... And ignoring refund requests for so long?
