Default Re: Friend just had local company CCI hack his car

well.......it boils down to the fact he didnt maintain contact with them as to what they were doing, etc.. i am not taking anyones side here, but if he had talked to them daily (or semi-weekly, bugging a person doing work on your car is never a good way to get somewhere with them...this i know. ) he would have had to see what they needed to do, etc.


it appears to me that the tstat housing needed to be clocked a little to clear the header, i dont think they broke it and then rewelded it..but i may be wrong. i agree that the mount issue should have never happened, any good tech will realize something like that is wrong, and fix it before it leaves (i would, if it were me doing teh work....but i wouldnt have done that nasty looking shit on the car to start with...)

did i read that correct that it was a grand for the header?! wow....i am gonna reread that invoice to see....but that is alot, esp if they had to modify it to fit.


*edit* sweet jeebus! damn...

six and half hours to install a set of cams and gears while the engine was out of the car....

not to mention that header wound up costing around 1500ish? fuck....


not....gonna.....comment......on stupidity....
