NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
this isnt exactly a product review, moreless a company review. just wanted to inform fellow board members before purchasing (there are MANY MANY places to buy from on the internet!!!)
to anyone debating ordering through blaastperformance. my experience has been negative. i wanted the 44mm blaast wastegate for $250, they "no longer make it due to problems" but they have a 46mm (for $250 as well) to replace it (that is nowhere on their website, no pics, nothing)....not to mention the only way to pay for stuff was through paypal, no credit cards...what a hassle for someone who doesnt have paypal. after receiving it and sending it to the place thats building my manifold, they called and said that i would have to cut a good bit of my core support out just to fit this ginormous thing. screw that. so i decide to go with a 38mm. i can get a 38mm TIAL for $210 shipped through Synapse, so i call Blaast to find out what i need to do to return the 46mm blaast and get my money back. they say "we cant do that, that was a special order wastegate and we didnt even have one in stock, oh and we dont make the wastegates here...we can give you someone of equal or more value though". so, they will not give me my money back. instead the guy said they have what i need...a 38mm TIAL for $250 or 38mm blaast for $250 how stupid is that, not to mention i payed $250 for the much larget 46mm blaast. after a 10 minute arguement over their return policy (what kind of company refuses to give you your money back???) he said "well what do you want then?" i said "either a tial 38mm for $210 shipped or give me my $250 back". needless to say, no agreement was accomplished. did i mention he was rude on the phone?? there was some other things that i thought about getting through blaast.....BUT NOT NOW. nor will i push any potential clients their way. so now im forced to (possibly) delay my turbo project bc i have to wait to sell this 46mm before i can order a 38mm tial. super. |
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
I don't understand. You order a 46 mm wastegate and then are shocked thats its big? Also, a lot of people only use paypal for accepting money. It's relatively cheap and easy for small business.

Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
not new news... the guy is a hand job, i prolly turbo 3-4 cars a month and i do just fine not dealing with handjob canadias like guillaume nadeau, if i would have known the guys name before i bought parts i would have never sent money..

You're a dumbass.

Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
you bought a part that wasnt listed on thier site, obviously it is something they dont sell regularly, ie: special order. you go to honda and order something and see if they will let you return it, at least he offered an exchange

Your lucky they even answer the phone sell it on ebay and take a small loss Dude how many times have you bought things at wal mart and it not be what you totally thought ya welcome to reality. I ahve bought alot of things on the net that just werent really what I thought would work. Off to ebay and a small loss on my part. If 20-30 bucks bugs ya so much you need to be thankful your life allows you to worry about such small problems. I deal with people like this all day and always wonder working at the bk lounge must not be that hard after all. |
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
I've dealt with them recently and had NO PROBLEM WHATSOEVER...I'm allll the way down in south GA, and was still able to get my turbo rebuilt and upgraded and BACK in two weeks time...uhhhhh they'll take a money order as payment...Just lately bought an AFC NEO from them(for $365, which was a VERY good price compared MOST other places) and got it a week after I sent off the money order....I could've done ALOT WORSE IMHO...oh yeah, WAL-MART will not give you your money back on a return either, you get a GIFT CARD OF EQUAL VALUE....cliff notes: U SUCK!!

Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance

Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
I have almost 2 years dealing with guilleume from Blaastperformance and also I've dealt with them recently and had NO PROBLEM with any buy or transaction. I'm pretty conffident to make busines with Blaast, and also have fast shipping and very good customer service ;D.
Two thumbs up to blaast!! |
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
People do that ---- alot. They order a 14b oil line kit and then wonder why it won't fit their T3. The ball is in the companys court because you fucked up, but refunding the ---- vs. people making posts like this, I'll just refund the ---- and politely tell you you're stupid.
Unless the people act like pricks, then I fist ---- em. >:D |
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
I could really rip into you for all the reasons other people have stated, but they've really done an eloquent job of it so I'll let that slide.

In America we expect people making McPay to subjugate themselves and kiss ass over a $5 sandwich, which is why America is full of fat-assed fast-food eating high school dropouts who think they have a right to breed. It's stupid. As a product of this culture, you are stupid. One of my friends actually had a REAL HONEST TO GOD PROBLEM with one of BLAAST's products, none of this "big wastegate doesn't fit 18 year old kid's unrealistic expectations" bullshit you are spouting, they called Guillaume up with zero ------- attitude and holy ---- it got RESOLVED. ------- amazing, right? ::) |
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
Ditto to everyone's comments in the post.
When ordering online... #1 - Read the companies return/refund policy BEFORE buying something #2 - Ask questions pertaining to fitment and application BEFORE ordering |

your the tool I said would drop out looks like ya did since you have to have other people weld up your stuff. Figure out how to spell your job title yet. you not be fabbin like boyeeeeeeeee get a new job offer to fry cook at the bk lounge. Did you ever drive a neon at one time in your life? |
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
Yeh it comes down to you not knowing what you wanted ..if you knew you needed to go with the 38mill (which you probably told the manifold people) and then suddenly change its all your fault.Shure you might have been unlucky with blaast but if it wasn't for your downsyndrome this post wouldn't have exsisted :y
|
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
Yeah what everyone else said but with better smartass remarks and cooler insults. Just can't think of any that weren't said already. lol.
|
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
He be fabb'n but can't fit his own wastegate, let alone order the right one. What a ------- tool.
|
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance

|
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
you have no valid complaints, its not walmart, you bought the wrong thing its your fault you bought a big waste gate and your too big of a ----- to use it
|
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
you guys are funny, really. you've made me feel so bad about myself. im probably gonna kill myself. you guys are just jealous that i have a quality motor/turbo build instead of your janky ass jb welded JUNKyard turbo setups and vitara d series "builds".
|
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
Yes, thats totally it. ::)
I had Blaast rebuild a turbo, and it blew as soon as I put it on, probably because of user error (Shitty return line). I explained everything to him expecting to have to buy a new turbo or rebuild, and he gladly told me to send it back to be rebuilt, he only charged me for new oil return line parts and $50 for other little parts. I had great service. |

Let me guess you dropped out? |
Re: NEGATIVE - Blaastperformance
Blaast performance has always been there for me. He picked out a turbo for me, sold it to me, answered every question, installed, made the power I was looking for, when I put number 2 piston into the turbo, he helped. I couldn't ask for a better business deal. Blaast performance has been nothing but the best to me and my car. Special orders are tricking, dealing with international can be tricking also, dealing with other shops doing the install can be tricky, other shops trying to sell you stuff can be tricky also. Bottom line is if you don't have 200 dollars more to spend on your setup then you shouldn't even turboing your car.

and you know, a "quality motor/turbo build" doesn't mean anything until it's finished, so ---- off and ask somebody for help on how to buy a wastegate. |
