First off, I wanted to post this where it couldn't get deleated, and everyone could see (for those interested in the bws.) If this is the wrong section please do so in moving it.
Okay, Now I ordered a bws by mole' last winter. I had to wait well over the "turn around" time. I think I waited 3/4 months about. I also know many guys are having the same issue not getting thiers in, in the said time frame. I even sent in my core first. But MY core had a broken banjo bolt which put me out a week, I bought a stock turbo from another member, even two day shipped it to mole (mention money was tight and was trying to stay on a budget) Mole said he never got the turbo, tracking said different. Said it was left at his door. Well months later. I get my bws, I loved it. Installed, followed mole's break in procdure etc. I even bought new drain gasket, banjo bolts, and washers from my dealer. After braking it in I boosted 28psi on it, it was FUN. The car was amazing I loved the car I thought i was getting sick of. 4,000 miles later, the turbo gets in and out play. I was pissed, I assumed it was from too much boost. Well I end up shipping it to mole. And he said both bearings are shot, didnt say from too much boost. Said it was from surge probably from my BOV. Well im on stock surge valve. So as I let my dd sit I checked the surge valve diaphram for rips or and small tears. Nothing. So I dont know what could have caused it. Being very pissed and disappointed my turbo wouldnt have been warrantied I told him to ship it back, he offers to buy it from me. Than gave me $200 for it. Than talking to other member I am told I got screwed over, I get the money after I ask to paypal as a gift or pay for fees. I only get $190. So in the end. Im not trying to say mole is a bad guy, because WHEN I could get a hold of him he was cool and stright up. But like I said when I could. But im a human and understand people get busy and such. I hope this helps anyone who is thinking about a BWS. It was fun.. while it lasted. which was only 4000 miles. I am not posting to start a fight or offend. Just wanted to post my bad experance and how frustrated I am over this and after finding all that out from other members and such I got screwed. If anyone has anything to say please fill free to post, or pm me like other members have. I am not the only one that has had a bad experance, not going to say any names if they want they can post. in the end if I could do it again, I would have went stage 3 or bigger.

^^Truth is what you make of it. Some people read something and take it for the truth. This is what happened to him. But I think we have heard this before. I think it BS you can have stuff delete because it is not favorable. I remember 03Red post something about mole and had the post deleted. It was not bashing just sharing what happened to him and was deleted. That site has always had snake-oil sales man on it. As far back as I have read. /rant.

sucks bro, id say i told ya so, but you have already been kicked in the nuts enough. Best of luck in the future.
I tried to post a link to a stock rebuild kit in the bws thread, but guess what, post deleted. Mole now rebuilds your turbo for $50 dollars after buying it back for 200, then the next guy gets hit for top dollar again, shady business, just like his entire "advertising" scheme.

ha, but even my MAP S3, i was told limit is about 30psi, if the fuel is there. So a BWS boosted to 28psi sounds high?
Map bws3 turbo's are vsr balanced and use different internals and cost 2x as much. You are comparing apples to oranges man. |

I know, hence my point. 28psi sounds high for moles BWS. That is why I spent the money and waited 6 months for my turbo. Not that i wanted to wait, but I did.
