who else calls bs on this "turbo"
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...487958570&rd=1
im going have to disagree and call bs that this owner doesn not have an turbo kit on this rsx-s. he has no front end shots nor engine bay shots that show any sign of "turbo". it is also common sense that taking out the front lower grill and license plate/license for more air flow thru the intercooler.
or if anyone can prove me wrong somehow
i emailed the owner about the turbo, ill post his/her reply as soon as i get it.

Damn I smell alot of BS there. First off he says and I quote " 2002 Acura RSX Type S Turbo. It has the greddy 18g turbo kit. The kit was actually put on by Greddy themselves, they flew into St. Louis to help with it". Greddy would never fly to another state just to put on a turbo kit. Then he says the rear windows have 5% tint on them, it sure as hell doesnt look like 5%. And then he says he has a molded bodykit, but all that is molded is side skirts. And all it is is a lip kit pretty much.

Rep Power: 285 Maybe those are pics of his/her car before they got the turbo. Then again, i'm giving them a big benefit of the doubt. I think i smell a slight hint of bs. If it has a turbo on it then why the hell not show it off!? I dunno, this is too iffy to me.

Rep Power: 290 Look at the history for the guy: the only transaction since Oct 2001 is one where it says in big red letters that he has to sell his SRI because he just put in a turbo. Smells fishy...

How would that help, he bought it from Greddy its not like he took it to him to get it installed because they more than likely don't do that.

Greddy set a rep to alot of people's homes to fix the e-manage setup due to alot of problems it had. The basic greddy kit does not come with a FMIC. That is a kit you can buy extra.

Just because we might recognize a possible scam doesn't mean the average "Joe" can.
Gotta love that "as long as it doesn't happen to me attitude."
Then again, I know a lot of things that didn't happen to you.
Shall we go there?

I'm sure they'd have expense records for an airline flight and receipts for the kit and the install. Do you even read the posts in a thread before you reply?
