People still think this place is legit. Tobz Performance is supposedly getting some big turbo and engine parts package from them lol.

Maybe they are legit but the fact is they've proven that they are not a reputable shop or vendor. They have screwed customers left and right and now even if they do make "top of the line" parts no one will be risking to try when we have so many more vendors right in our backyards that have proven their parts and have a hell of alot better customer service.

Yup. We have many shops out here in the US that are very capable, I just dont see going across the globe just to get your car modded when its not like we are lacking parts or tuners. We may not have the pretty berylllium valves or magical anamantium pistons from when Spyros was involved in the weapons x project, lol, but quite a few shops here can build you the high hp evo just as reliably (as reliable as a high hp evo can be that is).

Seems like by the time you buy all his fancy stuff you will have 100k sunk into a build. I would rather build my hp than buy it, but at that point I would honestly rather offer to buy the Bushur Bad Bish, for example.

A board member looking to do a big build got a hold of a shop in Greece who promised unique RACE parts unlike anything before. The member was then scammed out of his money and seems like only recieved a portion of the parts he payed out for.

Honestly its a horrible situation and I feel bad for OP. I can relate somewhat as I had a similar situation happen to me when I was younger and dumber. Its sad that this said shop that screwed me over is still in business.

Nah, I think that last part was actually about Spyros building a 4g63 to power the new space shuttle, on pump gas with NO lag.

Thanks guys. I have seen the parts Extreme Tuners post on FB. Unbelievable!! I been racing since 1996 and never seen such ridiculous parts like that. If I were to buy custom parts like that, I would go to Magnus or Dave B. Both local in America and both proven people.
