TLDR: FRS300 paid a certain business that has a supposed (at the time) good reputation and is 9-10 hours away from him a LOT of money up front to build him an FA20 motor and boost it after his block went BANG (not sure how that happened, but that's the gist I got). 10 months later and it still isn't done. Business claims it is done and they're just breaking it in, dynoing, etc. However, no dyno plots have been sent to FRS300, no video, just one fanboi claiming that he's seen FRS300's car in the shop and it sounds "sweet". This business is supposed to know what it is doing, and 10 months is outrageous.

Marin knows the details and has had trouble with the same person at this business (same dude who basically tuned Marin's block to blow up).
