RX Twin Turbo kit review long over due!
 

After a little over a year of sitting in silence over the hardship of getting my car 100% after taking delivery from RX I have had enough. So I will get down to the point quick.

I paid for a turnkey twin turbo kit from RX in Dec. 2011 and took delivery end of March 2012. And the car wasn't still ready, as I had to help and get dirty to finish the kit and test the car out. It felt great at first but later the nightmare began. I had his help at first but everything sent was wrong or even more wrong. SOOO I just started paying out of pocket for everything to fix the wrongs. I almost traded up for a 1LE but back out. To this day I am still paying for new MAF sensors and oil quarts. I have to clean my engine and MAF regularly. I was finally offered to have the car rebuilt with Matt (when he was there) looking over the improvements. When Matt left didn't like what I was seeing and being practiced at the shop so I backed off and cut ties to RX slowly. As of this past weekend I have finally worked out all the kinks thank's to some help from Derrick (Gretchen), Matt at FSP and Mike at SE-Power. Finding and custom making the parts needed properly has been a long task. But with me over looking it all and doing the labor myself I can ensure it's done right. Some may ask why I waited so long to open my mouth but enough is enough after seeing all these new builds going south under his direction. I am not the only one. Alex (V6owner) and Chris (BaylorCamaro) and I have wanted to write reviews for a long time. But we always gave Tracy a chance to right his wrongs but no thanks now. The message he left me tonight was uncalled for also after the mess I have been dealt from him.

All of my turbo kits problems since delivery.

2. Wrong size oil lines and fittings installed

I know your pain, there's nothing turnkey about our kits. But I'm glad to hear your car is doing better. Now get yourself a proper Evac kit! :frusty:

Glad you made the Custom TT work PROPERLY after a year. It only cost you am arm and a leg. Yes get the proper EVAC on that vette killer

That's a lot of oil!

good to see this thread.

Un-f'ing-believable, another hack job by RX.:thumbdown:

I hope you get it sqaured away real soon, sorry this happened to you and the others.:frown:

Glad things are coming together on your build. No go have fun!

Bump for WOW! :confused0068:

And it appears what we have is dishonesty and greed here......he was sent a brand new turbo over a years ago and refuses to return the one he claimed leaked (we shipped it as soon as he asked, with no pre-pay required) and he has refused to respond to requests to return it or the one he claimed leaked. That is $1200 he has cheated us out of. The entire story dosent seem to matter here does it.

Return the replacement or the faulty unit now.....or your essentially the dishonest one here.

Really? You made him pay $10k for something that wasn't even working properly and had to hane him fix it properly and your kit caused all that oul everywhere and you want something back?

Really? Out of everything I said all you worried about is a broken turbo? I don't see where I have been dishonest at here. That turbo doesn't even cost $1200 I have priced them with many shops. I've sold the broke turbo to fund my rebuild project. And dont say you offered to fix everything thing. Because from what I have seen lately you aren't touching my car. I'm lucky I have been able to catch all these faults and fix them before it blew my engine. Not to mention that you always on meth kit almost started a fire in my trunk. There alot I haven't said before or in this post and I can continue posting pictures.

Meth kit must have been hooked up backwards
