are you guys going to do more R&D or just work at producing a new stronger one?

Thank you!!!

Another HUGE reason to purchase from a FORUM VENDOR...

Unfortunately mine was one that busted. Jarrett has been nothing but professional in our conversations and has been very attentive to my concerns.

ItzJAY · 06-03-2014, 07:10 PM

Just full exhaust, Perrin intake, and the pulleys with an fa20club tune.

I dont own a water pump pulley from Raceseng but to see them take responsibility so quickly will definitely influence my decsion to buy from them in the future.

None verified yet other than destroying the water pump and belt, the engine Is being compression tested today.

Are they covering the price of the waterpump and belt as well. I also have this same pulley. I will contact them tomorrow about the recall.

Mine is being covered by the dealership (long story involving lawyers and things). Raceseng is taking care of everyone on the pulley though and mine and one other are the only two to fail completely. Just make sure you get the stock pulley back on there until they get it worked out.

I've had mine on since the 1st group buy so i wonder if I'll have a problem. So tempted to risk it lol

I have to say I am impressed. A full recall with only two failed products? I can't say I've ever heard of any company so ready to replace something so quickly. All products have flaws, and failure is basically a part of any item sold. You won't see anyone else issuing a recall with only two reported failures. I've been looking at Raceseng stuff for a while and this is just one more reason to buy whenever I get around to buying parts.

Would love to know how lawyers got the dealership to cover this?
