whats up guys! well i have a problem. i took my car to fastlane motorsports in tacoma to dyno my car, it was an ls integra with turbo. they ran it about three times and then the engine gave up in thier possesion......they say its my fault.............can this be? i am just wondering because i still think its thier fault........i want them bastards to pay ....i had to buy a new motor with my own money and they even charged me to put it in.......but now i just put a 98 type R motor in and i love it....and no its not stolen bought it from the wrecking yard for an arm and a leg.........

 

broken on the 3rd pull??? Sounds shady by the shop from me....

 

what do you mean by that

 

ok.

 

what u mean

 

they should have figured out how to tune from runs one and two...did they make any adjustments after the first two?

 

no they didnt do anything they ran it how it was...........but dont you have to be certified to run a dyno?

 

who installed the kit????????????????????????????????????????????

 

me and my brothers did....

 

there`s your anwser, numbnutz.

 

that was harsh but funny

 

Just my way of welcoming a newb w/ open arms

 

haha

 

LOL

 

accidents happen, it's the nature of this kind of tuning.

I was watching a rally race today and some of these cars died after 100 meters down the course.....a stock car obviously wouldn't do that.

it's the price of performance.

 

So just because he and his brothers installed a turbo his engine has to blow? Come one, it could be true but you don't have come off as a jerk about it.

 

So I can go to a dyno with my engine running like crap and when it dies on their dyno I can just blame them? There's more to the story than lack of tuning by the dyno shop here, if it died on the third pull then you had major issues to begin with

 

Too much boost can be a bad thing

 

I mean, youre gonna have to give us more info than this bro. I mean, Im not gonna tell you just because you and your bros installed it, it blew up. I mean, if you and your bros installed the kit, and then you upped the boost to 15 psi on stock injectors/pump etc., of course you are looking at a recipe for disaster. However, from most dyno pulls I've seen, there are usually symptoms of a motor blowing up before it does. If everything was installed correctly, and you were running proper boost for your fuel setup, then it shouldnt have blown up.

 

Just for your future consideration. Fastlane is a very shady shop. They deal with A LOT of stolen goods. The guys who work there know nothing about tuning, and will rip you off any chance they get. This had been known for years. Sorry you had to do business with them. Better luck to you.

I remember a couple years back watch one of the fastlane "tuners" CRX grenade on the track, when he was launching it.

 

LOL, Can't believe that there is so many TIME BOMBS out there!

 

How long did you run the car before you took it to the dyno???

 

What I`m saying is that 90% of the time a boosted Honda just blows up for no reason it`s due to a poor install. I was being a jerk becuase the question was not remotely intelligent.
