well im not a big fan of them either. seems there are som eissues with their turbos that they would much rather make up lame excuses than perform warranty work.

I'm sure MAP will warranty the turbo. They don't actually machine the wheels in house so I'm sure as long as it falls within the warranty period, it will be handled correctly.
