Is it Tial or is it CRAP!
 

Hey Guys,

Well i think i have been duped.
I bought a wastegate off this kid, he said it was a 38mm Tial wastegate.
I got it for $140. When it arrived to my house i noticed that there
were no Tial Logos on it. Has anyone ever seen a Tial wastegate
without any logos? I think its one of those SS auto pieces of crap.

im pretty sure all tial gate's have the name stamped on it

Re: Is it Tial or is it CRAP!
 

The TIAL name is CAST into it. You got an SS autoshit. Someone fucked you.

DId you get any pictures of it before he sent it....post those up and we will know for sure..but it looks like you got scammed here

Re: Is it Tial or is it CRAP!
 

scammed. :6

Re: Is it Tial or is it CRAP!
 

Sorry to hear that man

Re: Is it Tial or is it CRAP!
 

thats sucks man.. ... I dont even know what to tell you..........

Re: Is it Tial or is it CRAP!
 

Yup, thats exactly what i got from ssautoshi. Good thing at least is that they work fairly well for 0-15psi. I runnin 9-10psi on mine with a 8 lbs spring with no problem. Checked the diaphram a few days ago with no cracks or wear and tear.

But it most certainly is not tail nor is it worth that much specialy if used.

Re: Is it Tial or is it CRAP!
 

He showed a pic in the for sale thread, although he had the
wastegate positioned in a way that i could not see the tial logo.
I was taking his word for it, I mean who would sell a piece of ----
wastegate and advertise it as a tial!!!! Never again.
Anyways, he claims it was sold to him buy someone else and
he honestly thought it was a tial! Bullshit. He refuses to refund my cash.
He said the only thing he can do is trade me for a DeltaGate that he has on hand.
$140 for a deltagate, yea i got Ripped!

I guess its just risky business purchasing off of message forums.
Happy to say it didn't happen on HMT though.
