JEI bleh... I got 3 engines from them, 1 ran great, I'm still using it now...
One had a rod knock, he gave us the wrong ecu for it, so we couldn't tell it had a rod knock till he sent us the correct ecu, which was after their "30 day warranty" so we contact them telling them about the rod knock, they make us take the engine up to them, and still charge us an extra $500 on top for another engine, we get this engine, and it can't take boost, and now we are in the process of fixing it... it has been about a year now.

I am having a hard time finding an engine local. So does anyone have experience with Tiger Auto Parts?

i order my stuff, (when i had money and a car worth a shit), from canada, good quality parts and pretty damn cheap as well....my cousin and uncle live there so i just get it shipped to there house then they send it to me, its a hell of alot cheaper

i had a couple people get motors from Noyan and they said they werent great and there was a couple things wrong with them, thats the only reason i asked wut happened to them, i personally havent gotten anything from them..

Do you order from the place I asked about or somewhere else? If you don't use Tiger Auto can you tell me the company you do use?

I've heard alot of bad things about Tiger Auto. Seems like it's a 50/50 chance you're going to get a good engine from them

what have you heard about them? It looks like they are one of the few places that has a decent price on an engine with a warranty.
