That's garbage – they deserve a blacklisting for sure.

Always heard Streetpower is very bad and dishonest.

Wonder how they can survive until now though?

Holy hell that dent in the rotor is horrendous! Sadly this kind of **** happens all of the time everywhere. Working in the modification and performance business myself I see this a lot. I spend a lot of time fixing other people's fixing...

Wow.

When I see stuff like this I am always reminded of something I read in one of the old Mazdatrix catalogues within their engine pricing section. Paraphrases it went:

"It is relatively easy to assemble the largest pile of crap into a working engine that won't smoke too much, make adequate compression and generally run well enough".

Yup, rotary engines can get away with a lot of crap and it will still run, only difference is how well and for how long.

Still amazes me how this guy is still in business.
Hopefully the owner gets the car he deserved. Too bad it has cost them so much. :
