Toni doesn't do canned tunes. He sends you a tune from a similarly modified car. And sometimes it isn't the best. He relies no the IAM and other parts to factor in. Let me PM you my contact, ill review your logs and tell you if its running alright. I just inspected a vehicle that had a "basemap" from him NA that was running mid 13's AFR through a lot of the power band, then pissing fuel and knocking everywhere, it couldn't get over 0.68 IAM, and was typically below 0.50 IAM.

I just got my Fedex label to send the overpipe back.
I will modify my feedback if I can, to be fair to Toni. It's a bit late but it's here and after all the bad posts I feel privileged. |

Positive Feedback means that the order was shipped quickly, communication was great, and there were no hiccups. The vendor continues to offer support if need be. Neutral Feedback means that there may have been unexpected delays in shipment, long delays for responses, maybe one return if the vendor fixes it quickly (i.e. overnights a part) Negative Feedback means lies, no shipping statuses, incorrect parts, billing issues, poor fitment, etc. In this case, Toni at FA20Club clearly falls into this category for all of the aforementioned reasons and more. (at least in my case)

It's important to me that I don't post anything that's incorrect and I need to change or remove my feedback to suit the current circumstances. How do we do that? |

I see you overnighted it, so clearly it wasn't shipped when you originally said. At least you are trying though. Now, if only you would be transparent and admit to your shortcomings maybe you could start to turn things around. Like others have said, I am not sure if you are having issues with your fabricator or what.. but communication is what is killing it. If at the beginning you would have just told me to expect a couple week delay instead of lying all the time - I would have been 100% okay with it. FYI, the oil lines for the turbo aren't assembled for some reason (i have the fittings and the braided line).. easy enough fix for me as I make these for aircraft all the time but considering its supposed to be a bolt-on kit, some might be frustrated with that. Another piece of constructive criticism for you if you are willing to take it; ship an inventory with the kit. Then, before every order ships have yourself or one of your employees (if you have any?) check it and sign it off. You know - like at McDonalds on the outside of the bag it shows someone checked your order before handing it to you? Then, when the customer receives it they can check it as well. Right now, I went through everything and it looks to be all there but its kind of a mess. I will most likely be installing it this friday.

your first box had a inventory sheet in it right on top of the intercooler and the drain line is not pre assembled the line is cut to length though. we have never sent out a pre assembled line. then i would be blamed if it leakedthe install guide also has it on the last few pages and is available to be viewed via scribd online

Link to install guide? Also, which ROM on the ECUTek is the basemap for the .60 trim UEL turbo setup? there are like 15 ROMS on there If I can say anything positive at all, it would be that my garage floor is now covered in packing peanuts. lots and lots.. of packing peanuts. After further examination.. the K&N filter is smashed in on one side pretty bad.

Guys who have ever bought anything from FA20Club should denifinitely leave feedback whether it be positive or negative. One thing is do hate is when people who have never bought anything from a vendor posts negative remarks just because they feel the vendor is doing a piss poor job, sometimes that masks my decision making. Toni has definitely made mistakes on the way things have gone from offering tapped oil pans for exchange and loaner cables whiched delayed full orders (he has gotten rid of those options), incorrect lead times, not enough man power for the influx of work coming in. For the most part my experience with Toni has been good and this back from the end of July. He did did quote me 4-6 weeks for my kit, but as the timeframe closed in he gave me excuse to why the kit would be backed up which is better than nothing. Most of my communication with him and Andy were via email and for the most part they answered the same day there would be an instance where I would email on a Friday and not here back by Monday or Tuesday but then I would follow up. Most if everything I received seemed OK, welds look good ( just hoping I don't run into an issue in the future). I had my car tuned locally only because I like the idea of having my tuner local and he's pretty awesome. Personally I'm happy with my kit thus far and have told people who PM asking what I thought my honest opinion. Toni needs to refocus on his business management to work out these issues because they are fixable, if not We know what happens.

There's a link to my thread on the up pipe. Several of the pieces in this kit are complete garbage. I don't know who the hell taught one of the welder's at FA20Club to weld (or wherever they source the welding out to?) but they need to be fired. So set aside Toni being a liar and taking forever to ship, lets look at the quality of the kit: Up pipe is garbage welds. All exhaust flanges are garbage welds. K&N Filter came in smashed. Turbo doesn't come tapped/drilled for wastegate line. Oil drain line doesn't come assembled. No vacuum lines included for wastegate, etc. To be honest, it looks like the R&D behind the kit is there. It just looks like they need to find somebody who knows how to weld and find somebody who knows how to manage a business. Not sure where that leaves Toni..
