i dont think he called you out, i think he did a pretty dam good job about being humble and trying to figure out a way to contact you.

its not his fault you didnt pay your bills and hes been unable to reach you. Did you tell him about the argon situation?

im with him you should just send him the intercooler not moded and let him take it to local shop . imo but that dont matter

i told him up front i charge 100 for the IC piping, 100 for the downpipe. And then to pay me whatever he thought my time was worth to install it.

So do the math:

100(IC Piping)
+100(Downpipe)
+60(Radiator)
+25(Intercooler (Unmoded)
+30(for extra oil lines)
=315 (for parts)

If you do the math you can see I only realistically made 25 bucks out of installing this kit and spent about 3 days of my life...

You've done ALOT of ---- for him for $25.. he should be greatful.


Oh, and don't send SSL2K his kit until I get mine :P

damn albert, what you've done, shines a whole new perspective on this situation. You did all that for 340!? Wait I'm sorry I mean $253.oo, and then you gotta still minus the piping materials. That's a while lotta work. That's why ghetto d is my welder choice

albert i wasnt calling you out:

i tried many times to contact you (many pm's on hmt, i've sent e-mails, and i've called your cell phone. and after about 2 weeks of no communication i posted in the g.d. forum so someone could get ahold of you and let you know that im trying to get into contact with you). On top of all of that you've posted a reply but still havent called me. Plus you still have not finished the intercooler(when in dec. you sent me a pm saying you had the flu and it would be done by next weekend(and i said that was cool)


As far as your list goes: you did get the piping, weld my turbo to manifold,made me a down pipe( that was so off line with the rest of my exhaust that it was rubbing on my gas tank, and i had to pay a shop to fix the problem), installed my bov(you did put on a new one, but i removed the ---- for you), you installed the fmu (for a "temp fix") also you broke my ecu(when trying to chip it, after i said i would just take and get it done if you were uncomfortable with chipping the ecu), installed the boost gauge by putting a hole in my steering column( that i didnt say it was cool to do), you did use you brothers lines( also i still have a brand new oil line kit that ive been trying to give to you, to make up for your brother's), you did go to the junk yard for me(for a radiator, and you bought "me" an intercooler without asking if i wanted to buy it)

I did pay you $340 but i also did pay for all the piping and flanges ( remember i did pay for all the stuff when we went to home depot/partstore and i paid you back for the exhaust flanges that nite). As far as me wanting it done in a day that is untrue ( you said it would be done in a day, actually you said it would take about 6 hours......i didnt say that) and as far as you "spending" 3 days on the project....thats because you kept puttin stuff off( you just kept sayin "we will do the rest of it next time you come up"). I still have parts that i bought (because you said you would put them on) sitting in boxes (my oil gauge, my muffler) and i told you i would still pay you more money when you did that(plus my old muffler(---- i said you could have the muffler when you put the new one on, i even gave you the bov i bought from mike) We even had a few delays that nite like me following you in your car to get your parents when they broke down....and when we went to get somethin to eat( i even paid for you and your girl).

Even when i paid you i said ill pay you more.....it seemed like you were happy to get that much(you said it was more than you expected) but when you do a rundown on the price list please be a little more acurate and inform the people that i did infact pay you for the supplies.

As far as you thinking i "called you out" i think you misinterpreted what i was posting, i said nothing bad. i still say i like your welds(and most of the work) i tried to keep this a private matter(as best as i could with the lack of communication) so hopefully we can get this settled -----steve

Holy ---- man! this has got to be the lames attempt to get ahold of albert. Dude, you dont know albert. it would have been easier to get ahold of OSama then --------. I know im his cousin and i cant get that fat ---- to call me back :P

Dude, you tried getting a hold of me to get ahold of ablert and i didnt want to get involved cause for one i didnt want to bug him knowing damm well he has a kid and he's trying to get a place for him and the "wife"

One of the other guys said this is homemadeturbo, so for you to expect it to come out perfect in the amount of time he had was kinda ridiculous. He did my exhaust and its not perfect but im not complaining cause all I paid was a ------- combo meal and a Pepsi ( Peksi)

Oh and from now no more installs without the rest of the HMT SO cal crew( for insurance reasons) cause this is what happens. Only thing is we are gonna have to charge more

julio i think your missing the point im not complaining about the work(i know its hmt) the reason i posted that stuff was to defend myself( he mentioned stuff like : chipping my ecu like it was a favor, he didnt say anything about ruining my other ecu) but like you said ive been trying to get ahold of albert... he was on here today to post some inacurate price's but yet he hasnt try'd to reach me

I don't see how those prices are wrong, unless they're too low because those are some low prices.

and it's "I now have boost" no K involved. and in your sig it's sight, not site.
