Telling someone you wont help them with their EPIC FAIL automobile
 

so I have this delima...

There is this local guy who has a DC teg.. He had a turbo ls in it that was Chinese ---- to the max; totally half ass'd together and i somehow managed to pull a miracle and make it run decently (2 hour tune turned into a 3 day weekend fixing their fuckups and finally tuning it). The car was slow; like a lot slower than it should have been and behind my back this guys piece of ---- friends blamed me and my tuning skills; he kept a level head though so we remained in good relations.

Well that guy blew his motor about 6 months ago (stock rod thru the block on 25 or more psi on race gas against my advice) and as take the time since then to "build" another motors.. What orignally turned into a reputable shop building his engine and us/him redoing the entire turbo setup has turned into crap... He was going to get his ls block sleeved and get a reputable shop to build an entire shortblock right (i'm not confident enough to build someone elses motors yet) and put together an ls head (cams/springs/reatiners/clips/valves/JGE intake etc) but instead the guy farted around and wound up getting his idiot friend to throw some pistons and rods in another ls block he aquired... I'm 100% certain that that motor is a complete pile of ---- and wont last more than a week...

If the guy would have realized you can't half ass these things and you need people that know what hte ---- they're doing to put things together I wouldn't have a problem retuning his car... but my delima is this guy wants me to retune it but I dont want to have my name associated with anything him or his friends do, especially after hearing his friends talking ---- about me and knowing this setup this time is so poorly put together... I know that in the very unlikely even this motor lasts past startup and we go to tune it and somehow it manages to not blow up tuning it it'll go within a week and he'll blame me...

So yea; how do you guys that have been doing this a while tell the half-assers of this sport to ---- off...

You work for oczc now and cant do other people's cars. If yu cant handle this guy you really shouldnt be trying to deal with people. He's an idiot ignore him done

Re: Telling someone you wont help them with their EPIC FAIL automobile
 

^^^ he's talking about me :'(

Re: Telling someone you wont help them with their EPIC FAIL automobile
 

Yea... I hate dealing with people... especially stupid ones; like this guy... he wont take no for an answer...

i'm going to look at this heap of ---- this evenging when they get it all put together and i'm just going to tell him straight up "i know who built this; i dont have any faith in him" (btw the guy that built this motor has had about 8 or 9 13b's in the last year or so and NONE of them have lasted for more than a month NA)
i've already told him that if this guy builds that motor i wont help him at all and now he's lying to me saying this guy diddnt build the motor when i've got word from 2 other sources he has...

---- it i'm not maing enough to justify the stresses involved; he can take that pos to houston and spend $400 and have it blow up on the dyno

/edit: and the quiting thing wont work; this is a fairly small town; everyone knows everyone...

Just tell him no, be honest as to why. You’re right about not wanting your name associated with him. He will not get it, he will think you’re an ------- and when his ---- fails, it still won’t be “his fault”, people like this never learn, end up buying a minivan and cursing all. Because after all, it wasn’t their fault.
