Well, at least your thread did not get deleted! Are you happy now?! LOL!:biggrin:
Posting this on the Angus thread was deleted. So that's probably why when it doesn't work we don't hear about it.
Enough said...

You my friend, should not talk about what you know shit about. The pipe can not be just "re-welded." with that WG position there is almost certainly no room. Thanks for your "contribution". You should stick to name calling and school yard insults.
Even if you could spend 300$ that pipe alone would end up costing you like nearly 2k??? What? Are you insane!!!! You realize that's around 100$ in materials maybe 150 depending on how expense his turbo flange is. What you are paying for is his engineering and the fact that the kit is proven. Getting it redone would be insanity, better to just leave it. It will work ok but it will reduce the life of the turbo and you'll lose a small percentage of momentum / boost. As I said in the deleted thread I theorize that you shouldn't run a BB turbo with that pipe as it will give axial vibration on the turbine with that angle. However, since we putting a lot of K on our cars I would say it is fine.
Truth is if I had 10k to blow I'd do it, but since I do not I will build my kit and so far it's around 2k and the parts are of higher value except his welding and exhaust are going to be better than mine. His welding is pro.

Didn't read this whole thread
Let me get this straight. rj45 posted on this forum a few months ago to ask for advice on how to build a turbo kit, a project that he's never attempted before, and now he's an expert on the flaws in turbo kits that have been successfully road tested for years. I'm sorry but his tactics with this forum is going to make it hard for him to sell his unfinished and untested kit at any price to the Prime audience. That is if he can even achieve his product at the $4K price point. Which I doubt he can if it is to have the quality that we all demand for our rare cars.
Admin don't ever delete this thread! And guys keep it clean so they don't have to. Congrats Wil the reputation you built for yourself is doing what it should. Standing true and holding strong, people with integrity recognize a flash in the pan and in a few months.... rj who?
Bottom line that is getting you called out as being a troublemaker is that you didn't buy the kit and review it. You inquired and decided that it wasn't for you and now you went public pointing out issues you have with it. Truthfully I feel that in its price range it is probably the best option available for our cars. If someone wants a high end kit capable of massive power then there are definitely other avenues to explore.....but none in the comparable price range. I do not have Wils kit nor would I go that route, but he has helped me out with other things and I will say he was always very responsible and eager to help me out on every occasion.
Trying to get pics for collectors plates is a scam? No, the fact you need stock rims to get them is just BS.
My welding sucks, but then again you can't see it because it's all heat wrapped and silicon sprayed as it should be.
RJ some of us do dumb, learn from it and move on. In your case because you continue to try and defend your actions I feel an obligation to post the facts.
You wanted BC Govt Collector Plates on your 1995 NSX to save money on insurance.
Unfortunately your 1995 NSX doesn't qualify for BC Collector Plates. It has non-period correct wheels, an 02+ front end, a modified incorrect interior, an 02+ rear spoiler, modified side skirts, and apparently a turbocharged engine coming up. Any one of these items disqualifies your car from qualifying for BC Collector Plates not just the wheels.
Because your car was too modified to qualify you went on the Prime Forums and requested an owner of a stock red NSX supply you with pictures of their car so you could use someone else's pictures and include them in your application for Collector Plates.
You would then sign your application to the Govt of BC Insurance Corporation certifying that the pictures in your application were of your stock NSX.
Furthermore you offered to pay an owner to furnish these pictures.
When the owners of NSX Prime realized you were using their Forums to try and perpetrate this fraud, they deleted your thread. I use the word fraud meaning "a deception deliberately practiced in order to secure unfair or unlawful gain." a definition from Wikipedia.
So RJ no matter what you say on this Forum, you have displayed your character for all to see and that speaks louder than anything you write.
Didn't read this whole thread, but I recognize the photo pictured in your first post because I'm the one who took it. Above is another photo that I personally took that proves that the above quote made by you is in fact WRONG. You my friend, should not talk about sh...anything at all.
I'm not sure whats up but I can't use replay with quote or post pics of my latest setup ( for you guys to bash on.)
