Again one of James's groupies

Oh and by Drama James, what do you mean? I have never stirred up any drama you guys did the shady work put on fucked up parts wether supplied by customer or yourself whoever. You are held responsible. Your tech fucks anything up, YOU ARE HELD RESPONSIBLE. You throw this legal shit at people all day long. And I quote James the night of the tuning session on said Evo when you bought the Bullshit as timing gun from advance (and complained about that, how do you own a shop without a TIMING GUN "don't break the plastic so I can take it back")

Just to bring guys up to the point of how this dicussion come about, me the technician and some kid they called studder box I think and a few other guys where standing in front of the Evo. Someone said something along the lines of this car was supposed to be at SEMA (which calls for major concerns of what cars they were letting in SEMA considering the way alot of the wires were ran didn't look good, the intercooler piping alone didn't look great but whatever) Thats around when this was said..........

James - "He is in breech of our contract anyway"
Me - "what do you mean "
James - "Jey said that the car was supposed to be at SEMA"
Me - " How can the car go to SEMA when you guys aren't even done with the car all in all you are in breech of your contract"
James - "I pay a lawyer $250 an hour to take care of my dirty work so we will see"


Dude plan and simple we might don't get along, we may have our ups and downs, but when I was there helping a friend, I was also looking out for your best interest because it was your shop, we all were there, and it was the right thing to do before something fucked up. Unfortunately something did fuck up a customers car that was left under your responsibilty.

Now if your tech decides to spend 3hrs on a couplers that kept blowing over and over and over and over and over and over again, instead checking the timing issue that was brought to his and your attention, this would not have been a problem for you, your shop and whoever else that was involved.

Now 1 thing if this is the kid i think they call you studder box, you are cool as a fan you did know about the plastic peice on the tranny that kept breaking off, very helpful, but did you ever wonder way the techs couldn't figure that out? If you weren't there to put in your .02 that would have been another thing that would have been and issue to add. All im saying is people were there to help because it was obvious that it was needed!

And to add yellow evo dude or studder box don't know your name don't take it as a dis because it wasn't all. You are a good guy .

Still awaiting communication with Jey Morris before any resolutions or other posts will be handled. Jey is our customer and his needs will be handled first before these forums.

Thanks
James

Ok guys time for a quick update.

Tonight i was able to take off work about a half hour early to call james at promotion. I WILL say this: I am impressed with how they are now responding to the needs. We did talk for a brief time due only to the fact that both James and I are trying to work our shops business.

Promotion has agreed there will be NO charge for the TOB and tranny removal. Which i believe with James stateing the bill is now 1600.oo which we will fine to and such later after the parts issues have been resolved.

I will be sending James an updated list of parts/damage this evening and will be awaiting a reply hopefully tomorrow.

I also at this time will reiterate that i have not , nor ever have, blamed Promotion at fault for the engine failure. At this time there is nothing to prove or disprove anyones THEORIES.(ei, tensioner , tensioner pulley, oil, or valve springs causeing the motor catastrophic failure.) The motor and all parts willl be checked by a third party. However James has stated that the motor OR motor work is NOT covered under warranty due to the fact it is a high performance motor.


Thanks again,
Jey Morris

I don't know, but anytime I had to use customer supplied parts I would write no warranty on the work order.


Second, anyone working out of their home without business insurance is a backyard mechanic, not a shop. If you are so busy you can not make phone calls maybe it is time to go legit.

Trying yes, but due to lack of correct facilities for what we are doing it is hard. I am a legalized license bearing shop/business we were in Annapolis and due to EPA building regulations our small shop was taken down and we were forced to find other means of a building location. We hopefully will be in our new shop very soon.

Thanks,
Jey Morris
