So here is my story so far:

I paid one month ago, after that no answer from Dave to e-mails, PM-s, texts or calls. Now even his voicemail is full.

Its seems kind of unreal to believe that Dave might be a scammer, but just wondering why doesnt he answer to anything ?

It looks like he sent the UK ones and not the others. Wonder if Shumi ever got his...he hasn`t posted for a while.
I find it hard to believe Dave is a scammer, but he certainly isn`t doing himself any favours by not responding!

I also ordered turbo from LegacySTI but since he was unable to ship turbo outside UK soon enought for me I asked him to give me refund.

I was a little worried at first because he didnt reply to my messages but then he gave me refund so I can tell that he is not a scammer!

Finally Dave contacted me, I dont know the reason why he didnt contact me any earlier, but he posted the turbo today and also sent me tracking nr.

It is supposed to arrive next wednesday 30-th march, after waiting for a month five more days doesnt seem too bad : )

Hi guys,

Haven't been on line for couple weeks.

I think word scammer can be quickly deleted.

Perhaps replaced with someone who is not on line everyday of the week, which i think is quite forgivable. (work, young family, parents health problems etc)

The sole reason why european deliveries is that they were 3 brand new members to scoobynet who yes could have been scammers to me. so delayed shippment over uk ones so cleared and transfered payment ok and no funny stuff ensued...

Sander is grand and contacted me on facebook. Ircar81 needed turbo quicker then post office could deliver hence full refund.

And schumi upon delay wait i needed to wait on new batch of x10 turbos which i have been waiting on and delayed myself in fact 2 weeks unexpected and will send £45 value in x3 genuine subaru oil filters and sump washers as a compo for delay..

So think everyone is up to date.


Dave

i know it wasnt part of the sale and there should be washers with them but i assure you there were no washers.Its a pity the goodwill didnt cover the set of injectors i bought, when i had the injectors flow tested and cleaned i was informed they were very poor quality for which i paid top price.Luckily they were able to sort things out for me.Its not for me to tell you how to run your buisness but you havent done yourself any favors the way this turbo sale has been managed,i think you would have sold a lot more.As a sign of my goodwill i will send the filters back...

Mine is fitted, done most of the mapping, finishing it on saterday night and dyno after. My tuner said it feels around 360 370 ish. And it holds boost well. I'll put exact power on once It's been on the dyno.

I have a customer who fitted one to a P1, I built Him an engine, then He had the Vf48 fitted an mapped. He got a very safe 336bhp, the Mapper said there was another 20bhp if He wanted to go further.......Andy

Hi Dave.

Injectors were simply second hand pink sti injectors removed from a new age sti manifold and sent. I'm not quite sure wat you mean poor quailty as they are genuine subaru sti injectors as said simpily removed from a breaking sti? Regards flow testing they are 7 year old subaru factory injectors.

Really stumped on above?

Finally got mine. Should have received over a month ago but it got lost in post. Thanks to Dave for actively communicating with post office and helping to track down the turbo. Going to be installed and mapped soon.
