Got my car 2day, & now its in the shop?!?!?!?

[dommk]

Well today i went to pick my new car up(98 gst) and i get there, and get in...the car doesnt start! some idiot that works there left the damn headlights on all the way from texas!(and its been 2 weeks) once they went and put a new battery in, i get in, and smell oil burning, i pop the hood and it needs a new head gasket! so they ordered one for me and i have to pick it up tuesday. When they went to pick up the car, they broke part of the front bumper putting it on the truck, so they also ordered a front bumeper for me, and new wheel locks, because whom ever owned it b4, lost the key, so they had to break off the lug nuts on all 4 wheels. needs a new trunk release also.

I bought an K&N air filter kit, and come to find out i dont even need it, so now i have to sale it. it has an Apexi intake in it already

it has an electronic boost controller, but i thought manual was better? i bought an Hallman RX MBC but it has a Greddy Type S Boost Controller in it, no instructions or anything! but do i need it if i have the hallman?

it also has pioneer 6.5 front and 6 x 9 rear, with a bazoka tube in the trunk, not thegreatest, but hey it came with it....stock infiniti radio, but its locked, and i dont know how to unlock it.

other than that, its in very good shape. atleast i dont have to pay for the damage they have done! only thing i have to buy now are wheel locks.

ill post pics when i can!

Yup, sounds like you own a DSM to me, welcome, get used to it, there will be times you just want to pick up the nearest heavy object and just beat the crap out of your car, but you must refrain, because when they run, they are awesome. That electronic boost controller is expensive, I would leave it, plus you can change your boost psi without opening your hood, and when you want to race someone at a light or something, you can quickly up the boost without alerting the other dude, Id keep it.

A Greddy Type S is a blow off valve, not a boost controller.

Yes, Greddy does have a Blow off Valve product called Greddy Type S.

They also carry a Electronic Boost Controller called Greddy "Profec" Type S. Here is an example: http://www.suprastore.com/greddyprofecb.html The word "Profec" is important to distinguish the diff between the two.

Like I said, a Greddy Type S is a blow off valve. A Greddy Profec Type S is an ebc.
