Thank you Shaun and everyone for your help with the piping and clamps you have no idea how much I appreciate it!

I didn't know paypal wouldn't cover it if I sent it as a gift. Seems obvious now looking back but now I know and knowing is half the battle! GI JOEEEEEEEE

Yeah that's the guy I can't believe he ripped someone else off too what a bastard. I don't even know what to say about this besides his name is Daniel McAdams, don't buy anything from him and my turbo better be okay!

****! I think Im in the same boat. I bought fuel rails of the Corral on Tuesday, and I payed thru PayPal and Gifted the damn payment. The OP said he would mail them by 3pm on Wed. and would PM me the tracking #. Well Its Friday no tracking #, and he wont Respond after a couple of PMs I sent him. I got his name (If Its real) and his PayPal E-mail address. Ill give him a week. If anyhting I can prob track his IP address. If not Oh well Ive Learned my lesson and now I know. Dont trust anybody unless its a well established bussiness or seller. Its the principle though. It just sucks that there are ASS CLOWNS out there that will screw you over:mad:. Not saying this guy did, but we will have to see.

THe hot side seems to have heavy exhaust soot in it. How does it spin? Are there large deposits of soot on the blades? He may have been running a very rich tune. too much of a buildup and it can create more heat.

Sorry to hear about the sour deal. Keep your head up and thank you for sharing this frustrating story. Your unfortunate event has educated me...I was unware of ebay not helping on gifted money.

I hate to harp on the same thing, but ****.. if the word "gift" for payments doesn't throw a red flag, I would like to inform you that you have won the Canadian Lottery, but since you are not a resident, you need to pay small free of $600.. don't worry, though, you'll still receive the remaining $19,400... :confused:

I noticed that myself but it does spin just fine. However I'm still working to get my money back since he still lied to me about so many things.

I'm going to ignore the people implying that it's stupid to send it as a gift. I use paypal because I figured they cover your ass, or if not them atleast your bank. If they aren't going to cover you when you send a gift maybe there should be some sort of readme saying so when you click on it. Of course people are going to click gift if it avoids fees, and yes it's not much but a few bucks is worth saving if you can. If it said something like hey it's a few bucks for us to have your back maybe I would have had no problem spending a little extra. Obviously it makes sense now that I think about it, that they would only cover you if you cut them in on a percentage of the money you are transferring. However no one is retarded for not realizing this until they get screwed over. Maybe paypal should rewrite there terms of use to "Pay us we got your back, if not we didn't see nothin, sucks to be you Pal!"

Good luck with getting your money back, it does suck all the way around. As far as the paypal thing, you live and learn. But it does have something in there that says they won't cover it. That's why it says only do gift to people you know. Trust me, I almost sent money as a gift before, until I read every little line about it. I think it starts with people who are wanting to sell something and they advertise it as; cost +shipping + 3%paypal fee. I feel that if somebody wants to sell something and accept paypal, then they are going to cover the paypal fee not the buyer. Anyways good luck with it.

... because they would cover you ..... after you gifted it to avoid paying them for the service they are providing you. Thus them making 0 profit off of the transaction.

Ya thats good logic right their
