Default BUYERS BEWARE OF BORICUATUNING

I purchased a 96-98 ctr motor from him about a month ago. Wasn't satisfied with what I received at all. I have sent emails, pms and posted in his threads and he hasn't responded to anything

1. Bolts laying in the head. Needed SEVERE valve job and if it wasn't caught it would have destroyed the motor.

2. Didn't receive everything I was told I was getting,

3. IACV was bad, the si wire harness was missing clips and had broken wires, no map sensor, oil pan was smashed to ****, throttle body was a pos OBD0 TB that had two gaskets on it and was sucking in a **** load of air

I haven't checked yet to confirm that the cams in the head are in fact ctr cams, but that will be done shortly. Buyers beware of this seller and ask for very detailed pics and description of what you're supposed to receive.

no not at all it was actually the same price that I could have gotten it offline at some places but I thought this would have been a "better" way of going. Obviously I was wrong

"**** you! I sent you pics of what you got. Go wine somewhere else."

I wouldnt buy anything from this *** clown and he should be banned from the forum.

I locked all but one of his FS threads because he had 13. This clearly violated the rules.

I have the pix he sent me but it does not show the issues addressed and clearly wont show the bolts laying in the head when the valve cover was removed.

Damn.


Maybe they'll finally ban his account. That's bs that he's scammed this many people. Wonder how many people have uninstalled engines/trannys that are also trash...
