That's fantastic news. It's a great feeling to have that kind of support. Good luck with the race

Its going to be a long next few days;however, Thanks to Geoff, RRE and Buschur... we're going to make this happen. I'm so greatful for all the help... its been so frustrating... but seriously these guys have bent over backwards to help us out. I'm so greatful.

Fullrace = FTW!
Buschur Racing = FTW!
RRE = FTW!

Very cool, I admittedly know little about RRE but sounds like they are GC - very impressed by the enthusiasm, integrity and ability of all the above companies... you guys are lucky to have so many quality companies!

Wow man your recent string of events is terrible to say the least. Nice hear full race kicking in.

If my EFR fails in a short time period its going to be packed with C4 and sent back to BW.

The bent shaft thing has happened before? Didn't they change some of their suppliers during the first run of these turbo's. Was this turbo one of the first batch or the latest? How many other failures have been reported?

This was one of the first batch turbos. Leaving Full-Race now with another turbo in hand. I had to buy it;however, now i'll have two 7670's. They said it should two weeks to get the other one replaced.

Start the bidding at $1,000,000??

Ok thanks!

You had to pay for another Turbo? How is that? No warranty on the bent shaft? I thought Geoff was lending you his...

Anyways, GOOD LUCK MAN!

They are sending the turbo in to Borgwarner and it will take two weeks I guess go determine if they feel like paying for it. Yah I was surprised to say the least when I was getting charged... it was the homie hookup price which was generous of him but our conversation last night was definenty different. Not that I don't understand why...just I was under a different impression and interpreted "give" differently as opposed to if he had said "sell for a great price." That's all. At the end of the day he didn't have to do anything... so I'm grateful for the hookup and it allows me to get the car to the race which is what counts.

I thought these turbos had a 1 year warranty no questions asked. Keep us updated on process, because I aint gonna rock a turbo with no customer support or service.

what would cause the shaft to bend besides surge? out of balance? i suppose it would be hard to tell with an anti surge housing, but did it ever feel like it could have surged?
