How Long Does it take.
 
Yea just wondering, how long does it usually take to put a turbo on a F22A? i sent mine in 3 weeks ago, and its still not done.

Did they have all the parts in or did they still need to order everything? Usually waiting for the parts is the longest part... actually putting everything on can be done in less than a day, especially by a shop.

wtf is wrong with you noob, it's called hard work and dedication. do it yourself.

my cousin and i probably put a good 80 man hours working on the whole turbo project, and we took our time.

No. It was a friend, who had other ---- they had to do, and thats understandable, but still.

Re: How Long Does it take.
 
That's bullshit... my buddy took his to a "performance shop".. and they took 3 MONTHS and bought a SSautocrhome kit... lol. He took them to small claims court and LOST becuase the judge didn't know ---- about cars... it was ------- retarted.


Anyway... tell that shop to pull their heads out of their asses and give you your car back... 3 weeks is WAY too long if they had all the parts.

EDIT: Okay, tell your friend to pull his head out of his ass then :P (unless he's doing it for free... then you need to pull your head out of your ass and help him out to get it done)

3 weeks is ridiculous, if they had everything, its an easy weekend project at most

TomPlastina 06-16-2006 12:02 AM

Re: How Long Does it take.
 
1.no he aint doin it for free thats for damn sure. 2. I have tried to help,dude never calls me back, i go to his house hes busy or not home. 3. I would have done it myself when i got all the parts 3 months ago, but i have no tools, 4. He has tools, said it would take 3 days, and ive been waiting 3 weeks, i just want boost.

Re: How Long Does it take.
 
Oh man that would suck... if he blew up your engine and just didn't have the heart to tell you...

Re: How Long Does it take.
 
he`s def.ly having trouble with your car LOL , go talk to him and tell him you wanted to see the setup

Re: How Long Does it take.
 
dude it would take 1 person like 6 hours to fully install turbo w/ out tune

TomPlastina 06-16-2006 01:10 AM

Re: How Long Does it take.
 
i saw the setup like a week ago, it was coming along, the manifold and turbo was on, the intercooler was fabed up, and all the piping was fabed, all he really needed to do was weld. he has ran into all kinds of problems, it is an accord, not a civic, from what i have heard there a little harder to fab up.

Donald125 06-16-2006 03:21 AM

Re: How Long Does it take.
 
no they are not, well as least not when he think hes "skilled" enough to charge you that much $ , how much did you paid him anyway ^-^

TomPlastina 06-16-2006 04:26 AM

Re: How Long Does it take.
 
I havent paid him ---- yet, just 100$ for any part he may need, and he ram out of that too, hes used to doing civics and crxs, so maybe hes not as skilled as he thought.

it is exactly the same thing, doing a kit for a civic and doing an accord, pretty much the same engines just a little bigger. Same components in the same places, so that's just bull......
He is just not skilled at all. Putting a manifold with the turbo takes, 20 minutes. hanging an intercooler takes maybe 30 minutes if you are skilled. Just looks like he is learning as he goes and taking your money while at it. You could have purchased a $20 socket set and installed it yourself. Serves you right.......

how can you be proud of having a turbo accord if you don't even know how a turbo works? you didn't do any of the install......that sucks :7 :7 :y :8

Re: How Long Does it take.
 
hahaha....

have you went down to see the car? did he put it on and blow it up :1 -doesnt want to tell you?
