Problem solved.
![Banana :banana:](./images/smilies/banana.gif)
Manifold is a NOS cartech unit that I bought threw Miller performance. The turbo is the actual problem as it needs to be a "ON" center type turbo to fit (thanks Todd). I fixed it by buying my brothers turbo which was from an old Korman kit. Heres my actual turbo f.s. on ebay.bimmerboy wrote:What manifold and what turbo?
I know you said you fixed it, just curious
Next time you call me to ask for advice I would appreciate some honesty. Telling me you had one of my manifolds wasn't quite the truth was it?Jays535is wrote:Manifold is a NOS cartech unit that I bought threw Miller performance.

Shameless plug,I know
We'll I didn't say manifold, I said downpipe and I got the AFM bracket. I guess if you want me to call Miller for any up coming purchases I will.T_C_D wrote:Next time you call me to ask for advice I would appreciate some honesty.

Why didn't you call Miller or Cartech?
I think you should. I don't have any interest in doing business with people who are less than honest!Jays535is wrote:We'll I didn't say manifold, I said downpipe and I got the AFM bracket.

I also edited my post to give you thanks.
It has nothing to being the only game in town. In fact, I would prefer that you refuse the package and I'll refund your money.Jays535is wrote:

Oh and do you have a tracking # for the downpipe and AFM bracket? I'm sure it's on it's way, but now I'm having serious doubts!
So it just comes natural? Your arogance is awesome! I will accept it and move along.T_C_D wrote:It has nothing to being the only game in town. In fact, I would prefer that you refuse the package and I'll refund your money.Jays535is wrote:

I learned my lesson.
Todd isn't the ASS wipe, you are. Todd is running a 100% up front legitimate business. You on the other hand did not buy the manifold from Todd, but told him otherwise. Why, did you think Todd wouldn't provide you with some advise ? Todd might have provided you with some info, but he isn't obligated to do so. What Todds knows about turboing the E28 is proprietary to TCD, Inc.Jay535is wrote: We'll If I did say manifold, then I apologize I meant downpipe. The conection was pretty bad sooo...

I guess you must have been on the phone with us? I started out buy saying I just bought a downpipe from you and I have a problem with my turbo fitment, which really has nothing to do with the downpipe.Rich Euro M5 wrote:Todd isn't the ASS wipe, you are.

Your add on eBay isn't above board either. There isn't a legitimate company doing business in the U.S. that can use T04E except Garrett. What you're selling is a Made in China RIPOFF of a Garret product. And since you aren't 100% certain of who manufactured the center section, you shouldn't be mentioning Garrett at all. Your ad is ambiguously worded to mislead a prospective purchaser into believing they're purchasing a Garrett center section.
If you were being 100% honest, your add would state that you're selling a Chinese manufactured clone of a Garrett T04E turbo.
Speaking of Cartech, they are local here in San Antonio and I was trying to find a few general turbo components locally so I called them, and called them and they have yet to answer the phone or return any of my emails. I don't even know if there IS a Cartech anymore. Needless to say since Corky sold the business its pretty much gone downhill.Jeremy wrote:Better yet, call Cartech and ask them about their current offerings. It's only been "coming soon" for two years.
You bought a used Cartech unit from Miller, then instead of calling either of them, wanted TCD to provide support for it. This why you're not real popular.

Well, no. You could actually admit to what happened (yes, most of us tend to believe Todd rather than you, go figure), whether intentional or not, apologize, and and try to move on. Instead, you've chosen to be very stubborn and a bit arrogant.Jays535is wrote:All I can do now is beat the dead horse.
