951 Max Chip installation? Where is the KLR and DME computers

[nize]

are you aware that there are a lot of chinese knock off turbochargers and even tial wastegates with the cast/imprint brand logo on them that looks very similar to the real thing?

another popular scam is to buy a turbonetics housing (to get the turbonetics logo) and use fake parts for everything else.

did you also know that turbonetics comes with a one year no-questions-asked replacement warranty? you won't get that warranty buying one on ebay even if it is real.

sometimes it's worth spending the extra money and buying from a reputable seller.

here's a writeup on fake tials. the taiwan knockoffs could fool amost anybody;

WOW. they are getting pretty good at these things... Well the turbo does have a serial number on it. it could be matched to see if turbonetics recognizes it.


and yes i do know turbonetics has that warrenty i bought a t66 stright from them a few years back for my 94 supra turbo

when you get done with all the other work you are doing and the car is together we can trouble shoot the boost or lack there off.

Hmmm, I don't recall speaking to anyone who bought my chips off anyone on ebay. You sure you talked to me? I'm the owner of MAXhpkit/951MAX

you know that in most cases, buying something used off ebay does NOT transfer support and warranty to the new owner, right? especially if it's difficult to prove that the product in question is genuine (or not).

i generally avoid buying ebay parts for my car, and get them directly from the source instead.

I'm not saying I didn't talk to you, but I talk to 10-30 people a day, I just don't remember. My number is 877-558-9507, feel free to contact me any time to go over the details. However, I'm heading out this afternoon and won't be back until Monday, probably try then is best.

Yeah, there is that...

But I really don't mind helping people who have bought my products from someone else. He may not get a new chip for free, but I'm always willing to help someone, even if they are a INSERT_OTHER_VENDOR_NAME_HERE customer and not mine.
