That seems very unlikely but not impossible I guess.

Edit: Why do I even bother giving people on her the benefit of doubt?

Also quoting one of his customers from the aforementioned thread since it's relevant:



Sorry for your loss, OP. This makes two (known) engines that Visconti has destroyed while tuning, the first being one of the Innovate SC test cars.

IBTL

There are more than 2. Just not all of the owners have come forward.

Assumptions are the source of many evils aren't they?

Listen DUDE. First of all, I have not posted in ONE post that the fire is his fault. What I have posted that is HIS FAULT, is the Safety Issue that is fuel leaking in a hot engine bay. If you dont believe that is a safety concern, educate yourself.


About kids, maybe you have not, or you dont care about the ones you have. As a father, having a care start to burn down and knowing you have a few seconds to spare to save their lives, is kind of unerving.


But hey, you keep trolling, You have NO IDEA how many backstories I know about all parties involved and many others in this forum...


Carry on troller....


Oh and BTW, The source of the fire was NOT a Catch Can, as the AREA where the fire started there was NO Catch Can installed...

Doesn't change the fact that his kits still leak fuel and need to be recalled.

@FA20Club.com This might be a good time for a group buy.

that's the exact same thing i thought. scary to even think about. i'd buy a fire extinguisher but with high pressure fuel spraying around, you're pissing in the wind to even try to put it out. time is much better spent getting anyone in the car the hell out of there and far away.

visconti should've had the owner of every kit he's ever sold on the phone the next day. people need to ask if the ill-fitting lines were ever noticed before sending the kits out, and if so, why the hell did they go out? there are multiple people reporting problems, one car burnt up, and the guy offers to SELL you the correct part as corrective action? it's unbelievable.

i've always known the guy was an asshole to customers on the forum, that much is obvious. i never understood why people put up with it. it's a shame a dude's car had to burn down...

I'm fucking around. Since everyone has assumed as fact before due diligence... why not add my own? Filter dripping? Drain cock loose? Sure. Why not.
