He found and recommended the engine builder and talked great stuff about him. It was Todd who took the engine to this builder, who he still has not told me who it was, returned the engine and then installed it. The additional $5.5K was for R&R of the engine. Now wasn't that a great deal. YES, the bill was over $8000 for the work that Todd did, this DOES NOT include any TCD equipment.

The S2 kit was a different amount on money.

Yea, I blame myself for not listening to my inner voice telling me that Todd did not have the experience to fix my engine...it was right.

You all keep sucking Todd’s dick….maybe he will give you a discount some day. Good luck with that.

First, I am going to apologize to everyone who has purchased parts from me and paid more than Duke. He received pricing at cost for some items and at a significant discount for others. I did this in consideration of our friendship at the time and that he was having this done for a second time.

Here is the invoice.

Duke · Post by **Duke** » Nov 14, 2007 10:12 AM

I paid over $8K. TT has the origanal invoice and I will get it from him.

So add this to the list of dishonest practices of TCD. Producing false invoices.

It's the actual invoice.

I just spoke to Tony. He is going to see if he has it and email it to me as a PDF. I am sure he will send it to you as well.

Well boys it's been fun but it looks to me like it's time for another hiatus.

I'll check back in a few months and see if there's anything worthwhile going on over here. To the rest of you fine gentleman and ladies hope to see you at a gathering somewhere in the future.

It would be great if ya'll could be grown up even just a little tiny bit and keep this off the board. One ego beating on the other publicly and neither can back down looks pretty fucking retarded from the outside. It doesn't help when the rebel rousers jump in and escalate things either. Kinda like a internet geek gang fight where people throw bits and bytes and each other. Ridiculous IMO.

This used to be a place I went to relax and either B.S. about automotive shit or try to learn something and share the somewhat small amount of useful information I might have. Now it just gives me a headache and unnecessary stress. Forced Induction has always been where I lurked. Even on Roadfly prior to Mye28 where I watched PatP collect parts and build some awesome shit. It took me a really long time to be able to participate in this forum and this shit pisses me off.

Take it somewhere, hell anywhere, else please.

No you're not, you'd stop typing and take it offline if you were...all you're trying to do is slander someone's business. Everyone knows your side of the story, why do you feel the need to continue repeating it?

This thread was started to pass on the information as to the final problem of the engine. It was new information. It turnned out not to be a crack in the block that many people felt it was.

Facts are not slander. Think about that.

T_C_D · Post by **T_C_D** » Nov 14, 2007 1:50 PM

So we now know that the block was not flat when it was delivered to TT. We do not know when it went from flat to wavy. But just for discussion's sake let's say that it was not flat when I installed in your car.

Does this mean that the RA had absolutley nothing to do with the problem?

What about the radiator?

The coolant reservoir cap?

What about the MLS itself?

How about recommending taking it apart and spraying it?

Let's start a discussion about the structural integrity of the block. It was a used 745i BMW test block that was discarded, correct? The cylinders were out of round when the car was delivered to me. Was/is the block sound? Could it be flat one minute and wavy the next? hmm

Thank you for that, i'm sure you made other members take that into consideration in the future so similar engine woes don't repeat themselves. So for that, thanks!

Now that you have done what you set out to do why not just let things be. If you feel you were wronged by Todd then so be it, the car is gone and out of your hands so let that be the end of it. Forget about you e28 and start thinking of your Tiger... good thoughts... good thoughts....

SOT... But is anybody else slightly intimidated/disturbed by Kyle's crooked penis avatar?

I can't beleive I read all this, what a waste of time.
It's like watching porno. Your ashamed you watched it but couldn't keep your eye off of it while it was on.
The 1st post was a snare, it was not done to be informative though it appears that way.
Why would you want to carry on like this in front of friends?
I vote that you pm the hell out of each other!

I seriously think you're on to something...

Anyway... Duke! Wasn't TT supposed to send you something? Like an invoice or something....

This harkens back to the good ol days (4+ years ago for you newbs) when you used to lambast Todd and Sweeney about going tubo because NA was the way to go. Totally unprovoked, you would shit on them because your ego would not allow someone doing better than you.

Some things last a long while...
