To see the real injustice to the guy and more than likely where all his problems really started, look at the pictures of the "custom" wiring that was done.
All the shitty wiring and the burnt marks it is a wonder the car didn't burn to the ground. See the ones concerning his fuel system.Fuck you. We're going to Costco.

Read it all, was interesting. Cliff notes:
Guy agrees to $40,000 twin turbo build that makes 900rwhp. Is told stock internals are fine for that power. They are not.
Guy agrees to another 40k for a forged motor and upps the boost. They forget to mention it will blow the axles and then trans. Which it does. In that order.
They tell him he cant have a billet diff but its okay because he don't need it. 20k latter the diff blows.
Shop cant make the E-gear work well in first with the new clutches. Solution is pull shops stick from theirs and take the E-gear and only charge $10,000. Fine, go for it.
Clutch slips same day. $5000 for new clutch. Clutch slips again 2 days latter. Shop says make the 4.5 hour trip again and they will install another $5000 clutch. Cutomer adjusts screw and clutch works fine.
Customer still agrees to another "upgrade" with BS ported heads and bigger turbos. Engine gives up. Crack on every main.
Car is at UGR now.
How he picked it up from Dallas Performance after spending $140,000. BTW, engine was supposed to be torn apart and at the welders for a month yet it is somehow all together.
Who knows until we hear the other side. I have had customers ignore what I told them not to do and then break the car doing just that and blame me and then apologize after they figured out it was because THEY screwed up.
