Subaru FP green reliability
FWIW, I know Blouch is raking in the cash as I type because of your behavior.
I guess we're at a stalemate then, eh? We'll have to agree to disagree on this topic. You feel that the OP is justified in asking $$$ for both turbos and a feed line, while I feel he is only entitled to a repaired turbo and he should be happy about it for mentioning his "Elite moderator" status in such a passive aggressive way.
At least my continued posting here brought out exactly what Robert thinks about his Subaru business.
I can't wait to get my reliable Garrett turbo!
You know, this sort of incident really does act as a good test/filter/interview of sorts for potential customers. The people that a guy like this scares off never make power anyway. They end up driving around "on a safe rich toon" for years waiting for the next holy grail part that is supposed to turn them into a hero and eventually sell off their car without ever finishing what they set out to do in the first place. If I had to guess, I'd say there is a good number of Subaru guys that get manicures more often than they work on their cars, much less understand how to make power. I'll take some heat for that comment I am sure, but for some reason the Subaru guys have the most stupid *** questions and problems that I have ever heard (and I have been doing this a LONG TIME) and are always looking to blame somebody. There is a core of serious STI guys out there, and that is why we offer product. The posers can go fly a kite.
Some of you guys arent going to like my frank and politically incorrect attitude, and that is fine. FP does not equal Walmart.

I pass enough EVOs on the track, not to mention the porches and BMWs. Not that dyno numbers mean much, but I peak at about 410wtq on a dynojet (100 oct). When I throw on my (on order) 30R that number should get even higher.
Who cares about raw speed anyway? My car's no drag queen. I track her whenever I get the chance. You're welcome to look up my journal on IWSTI. You'll see I have a very tastefully modded car that is both fast and agile. Very few cars in this country the DD can beat mine.

Fullerton, what on earth are you trying to accomplish? What is your interest in Blouch? Are you the Subie owner's spokesperson? I am sure that they can each make up their own minds. Are you the Blouch Turbo mouthpiece? Why these b****y little attacks on FP anyway? Get a life! I guess that four posts qualifies you to spread doo doo on here.

How stupid do you have to be to talk **** about your customers?

Blouche: In the IWSTI thread, several people said they were getting the similar Dom 3 instead. I have no connection to them and chose a different turbo for myself.
Get a life: I am not sure how posting a couple posts makes me life-less, but I did expect a bad reception from this forum.
FWIW, I do like EVOs. In fact, I hope there is always an EVO for my STi. We are what makes eachother a great car. Without one, the other would be nowhere as fast. I chose a STi after looking at both cars, but it doesn't mean I do not like the EVO.
I just don't like businesses that personally attack their clientele, which is where this has led.
Like I said before, things did not have to go this way. In my day job I have had to swallow my pride many times and simple say "yes sir" to the client, not matter if I think they're an idiot or not. Sometimes that is the hardest, but best course of action.
Acceptable to you?
