You didn't answer the other question, did the clinic sell you the sc36 and remap it for that before it exploded? i thought u said in another thread that it was piston ring failure anyway?

Is anyone else struggling to understand what the OP is trying to get across ???
So far, all I can gather is a fool and his money are easily parted.

So......
You bought a 2015 STI and was led to believe it ran 370bhp, however, once on the dyno it only made 300 (how you couldn't tell that on the test drive I don't know).
So you then get the clinic to bolt on a sc36 and map to suit.
The car then let's go.
They've now talked you into doing another 13 grand on it....
Am I about there ??

So you bought a modified impreza without test driving it ?
Did you question the spec, ask for a dyno print out etc ?
What's the spec going to be once you've handed over 13 grand ?
It seems an awful lot of money to only see 450 bhp.

You didn't test drive a 28K car??? wow lol
However whats annoying me and I'm calling out your statement as bollocks mate, is that mango said it was mapped to 370bhp. The salesman (John was it?) is very knowledgable about the cars, he simply would not do that.

The part I cant get over is sending a brandnew car with manufactures warranty to a 3rd party tuner for engine modifications.....Mental!
Is this the first Evoeye engine to let go?

So as it was an EX-Demo car did you get the remaining manufactures warranty on the car?....and what is the reason the engine let go and have you spoken to mangoletsi or just spent about £45k on a new car with no sort of warranty...Do scoobyclinic offer a warranty on their builds?

I read this like the OP bought the car, wanted more power and SC put turbo, injectors, remap etc and got 370bhp. No surprise the choc engine let go and now SC are charging £13k to do it properly !!!

I seriously doubt Mangoletsi claimed they were selling you a 370bhp car.

If the facebook posts are to go by it lasted 13 days before it popped. **** tune or just a **** driver, should have lasted longer than that. Just see this as a money making exercise.
