You do know that even if you are too rich, your EGTs will be high, right? That is the thing abotu turbo... too rich, high EGTs.... too lean, high EGTs.

LOL, 240 dollars, but im desperate, full oil line kit and a downpipe gasket. i know it aint worth that but i need a full kit by friday, so this really was my ONLY OPTION. if i find them **** **** ******** at cheapturbolines.com, i swear im gonna be killing a few *******'s.
wow am i pissed, spent 87.50 shipped for a full kit from cheapturbolines.com, they screw me over and now i gotta spend 240 dollars on the same thing from rrm, though rrm is prolly higher quality and i'll actually get my stuff and on time too, so aint worried anymore, except for my bank account, lol.

Talking

because u need an extra foot of return line, your return line would only be like 1 foot, i paid an extar 9.50 for 3 ft of return line. the kit for 78$ doesnt have a long enough return line dude. i wish i new u were ordering one, i woulda told you.

btw: i really dont think we will ever see our oil line kits or our money back, atleast ur out 78 i am an extra 10 bux, plus now because of them i had to have rrm overnight me a full kit and pay for shipping.

ehh, nuthin we can do but wait for paypal and see whats goin on, but, if by some slim chance we do get them, i'll have it for sale, lol, i have rrm's 240 dollar kit now, i dont want el-cheapo rip-offs kit anymore.

if i was a lawyer they would be getting sued right now for false advertising, and fraud, plus prolly a laundry list of other things. i just dont have the money to pursue them, lol, it all goes toward the car and GAS, and skool.

Yeah I wish you knew, or check my turbo thread to warm me, but oh well, things happened... I would report the site to Fraud Agency here in Seattle, but I don't have those kind of time right now, my Paypal dispute ends at July 30, so I'll have to see if I'll get my money back, if not I will difinitely report them, so we will get our money back... .

Well good thing RRM is always there for you/us and make sure to take alot of pics okay! good luck!Hopefully I can start in 2 weeks too

Call your bank or credit card company and report them. Cancel the charges if you can. Then report them locally (where you live and where they live).

yeah good idea, but we decided to wait until July 30 and how is the dispute going to turn out, I know he doesnt want too many headaches about it during his installation and same for me.

GRRRRRRRRRRR, YAYYYYY!!!!
well now that i spent 240 dollars on rrm oil line kit, guess what.

today my full oil line kit from cheapturbolines.com showed up and it is beautiful, so now im trying to cancel my order with rrm.

the kit from cheap---.com is BEAUTIFUL. im sure rrm's is just as nice or even nicer and higher quality, but im happy with this one.

this is unreal, a few hours after i place my order with rrm i get the kit from cheapturbolines, go figure.

so i guess rrm will be pissed at me now, sorry rrm, i really thought i needed u guys.

Just for informational purposes, an oil line kit is an oil line kit. There isnt much else different that I can see justifying paying 240 bucks. I have an oil line kit here that I would have sold you if push comes to shove. Dont get me wrong, I have nothing against RRM, but it bothers me when people pay RIDICULOUS prices for stuff that is way cheaper. Well, I guess it is your money and not mine. I paid 93 bucks for the exact same thing COD.
