Updated: Ripped off
Ok for one Brad Seamen told me the car put out 526hp at 28psi... Said it had a lightwieght flywheel on the car, ummm no its the stock flywheel! Centerforce stage 2 clutch, umm no its def not a centerforce but it is a 6 puck clutch! Greddy T78 turbo, defiantly not buddy its a master power T70!!! Ok back to reality JPR and I finally have the motor apart and dissembled, There is only one good part of the motor and thats the rear iron housing! Brad Seamen or PNC autoworks did a real good number one this motor! Every port is a different size, none of them are smooth, where there is suppose to be a bevel there is a super sharp edge, and whoever ported these housing is a total retard. I'll take pics when I go back to the shop to show you guys, The ports on the plates seriously and in a "S" pattern. Every nut and bolt on the car is loose. When we put the car on the lift all the silicon lines were just split, so we think it spiked since the line wasnt on the wastegate and popped the motor, that or the idiot who attempted to port the housings and royally fucked it up. I should be ordering a new motor today with port work and a few other mods done.

I gotta go to the shop tommorrow to give the mechanic the money to order me a motor from atkins. Since I gotta head over there tommorrow I will take pictures of the port work, You guys would seriously **** your selves. Whoever did the porting.... wow remind me never to ask you for advice. Anyway I was hoping for like a 2500$ rebuild but since my motor is completly junk... That price will be around 4500$!!! I gotta get my mom to co sign for me on a loan tommorrow, I don't even have a job and cant really get one, my 1992 ford ranger is starting to buck and you can hear it starting to misfire so I think its goin to **** the bed soon! I worked 2 summers non stop just to own a 10ae, some ******* ran a stop sign and ruined my dream. I get the insurance money and find a deal to good to be true, a fully worked 7 for 5250$ Guy and the ad both said great reliable car 1988 perfect compression only 900 miles on the motor. I was happy because everything worked out good I thought. Car arrives running ruff, guy tells me it needs to be tuned. Got the car registered and come to find out its a 1987. Put the car in the shop and find out the motor is blown. WTF he told me perfect compression?!?!?!?! I sold my daily drive dodge neon for 900$ bought a ford ranger from my brother delearship with 250k on it and was told its in great condition for 500$, IT GETS 9MPG and its a 2.9!!! So I have 400$ 3 cars on the insurance the neon the 7 the ranger, Bill comes in 1000$... I only have 400$. So... My insurance is junk the end of this month. Took my bike out to the race this weekend my friend didnt put the correct amount of oil in the mixture and blows that up! Dissassembled that today and found a overheated piston and aluminum on the sleeve also the head was some how pushed up by the piston and has burn marks on the top of the cylinder, theres no play in the rod so it most of preignitioned. Lets see 4500$ to fix the car prolly around 250$ for me to get the bike back to perfect again, put out 5250$ for a "reliable car". Thats 10,000$$$ I cant get a job since no one wants to hire me because of my medical history... I am so so so so screwed!! I have court next month for the ******* who wrecked my damn life, I wish I could go back in time and change everything that happened that day it really ruined me.
