Man thats crazy. Good thing you didn't install it. I wonder what kind of damage it would have caused.

I'd like to say everyone is human and makes mistakes but like you said its a long wait and possible damage to your car.

Yeah, I was going to say possible mix up with a X. I'm not sure if they would fit though. Good luck

Wow. Good thing you caught that F up. I can't wait to see how long FP takes to get you another turbo. I'd be on the phone demanding one overnight with a shipping label in the box for you to send your first one back.

Lmao. And people keep telling me I'm crazy when I say I don't trust thier quality control. Or lack there of. This is the third bunk turbo story I have heard from them in the last month.

Damn.
Never thought I'd see a wrong direction compressor wheel in a turbo from FP.
Even the cheap chinese made turbos get that right.

yeah i thought the same thing,.. i know when i get something im so frickn stoked its in i throw it on asap. but good on you for catching it.
FP should take care of you,... but thats kinda a big F up, dont really know what damage it wouldve caused, but definitely wouldve sucked air out your motor instead of compressed.

and thats not a little mess up like forgetting to put a badge on.

Subscribed. Good catch. Im sure they will take care of you. However, I do not recommend you call any business up making demands like rapedape suggests. Just give them a call and explain the situation, see what they offer and go from there. Thats what you do in any customer service situation. You get more with a little understanding and patience then you do calling up and demanding things.
