hey guys im almost positive i got scammed but i want to make sure so he can give me my money back. i bought a turbo off someone not on here and they sent it to me and said they are positive its an evo 9 turbo. i got the turbo today and it says 9.8t on it. thats an evo 8 turbo from an 03/04 right? im so f***ing pissed off.

 

post up some pics

 

if its actually a 9.8t then yes thats the evo 8 turbo the 9 has a 10.2 im pretty sure there

 

ill post some pics in a little while and im almost positive. the evo 9 has a 10.5 i think and so does the 2005 evo 8 but the 03/04 have the 9.8t

 

man that sucks...

 

Kick his *** C-bass!!!!

 

Yeah 10.5 HS. if its 9.8, that is=/<2004

 

yeah he better give me my money back...he was like "i am positive it is an evo 9 turbo" so i took the chance and of course it fu**ed me.

 

sounds like an 8 turbo. You have the number on the turbo?

 

You should be able to tell just by looking at the compressor side. The 9 is much bigger than the 8 is and it is noticeable

110% it's a evo 8 turbo. Even some 8 has 10.5 hotside too. Sorry you just got scammed or the other guy don't even know if the turbo is a 9 or 8 turbo Just get your money back.

 

if this was paid via paypal and credit card, file a dispute right away on paypal, and call your credit card company for a chargeback.
good luck.

 

it was done using a cash on delivery payment at the post office so i have his address and all that plus he seems like he will refund me the money.

 

I hope that you get your money back. For future transactions, make sure that when buying specific parts that you either buy in person, from a reputable vendor, or get detailed pics of what you're buying.
