BEWARE

I purchased the turbo system which Alexis632 developed and sold to
Suzuk1lla. I received the system and all peices arrived as promised. Prior to purchasing, I asked how the system ran and if it was in good working order.

John told me that it was fine, he removed the system because he was trying to build an addition to his house.

I install the system, the turbo was smoking a lil, I assume that too much oil was being pumped into the turbo, so I placed a check valve to only allow oil when the bike is running.

I took the bike to the dyno for some tunning; I loaded a rich map to ensure the bike would not sustain any damage due to a lean condition.
WOW, man was I surprised

Under load the turbo started whinning very loud
Then it starting smoking (alot), I mean a whole lot, it smoked the entire shop out

I have called John Lewis, "he said that he rebuilt the turbo when he got it" After a tear down of the turbo, I realized that he lied about the rebuild. I called him several times, but he will not return any of my calls.

The turbo has to have a major overhaul, costing over $400.00.
I have to replace the bearing housing and bearings, etc. I am asked him to provide me 200.00 for half the cost for repair of the turbo.

He also sells other items on ebay under the name of (twistedmetalmotorsports)

He is not trust worthy, do no do business with him. He is full of


If anyone have any questions please give me a call 808-542-2496

suzuk1ki11a is a zx-10r.net member who has been logged in everyday since a copy of this thread was posted by justoyz2 on 7/11 and even though i've sent him a PM notifying him of the thread he has chosen to not reply. I have also sent a PM to justoyz2 asking for any updated info he can share but haven't heard back yet.
