This is my story

SRperformance

Where do I begin?

Well it started in 2012 when I own S&R Performance and things went bad for me.
Early 2012
In Jan we finished up a really nice fox body mustang about a 22k build. Now we delivered the car as promised. The customer wrote us a fake check. Needless to say I was screwed every way from Sunday. No car, No money and out a ton of money. Good news is 2 and half years later the State of Florida got him.
Around March a new Shop Open and pretty much hired everyone from out underneath me. Nothing like walking in the shop with no tool boxes, no employee’s and missing engine’s and parts. Had 40 cars in the shop Oh Boy!!
2 months after the shop foremen and fabricator bailed in the middle of the night to the new shop they open while working for me…Great times…
I stilled managed to delivered the first Top Mount Single turbo Nismo 370z and the 7AT top mount.
So, at this point I’m am the only tech, Tuner and fabricator. I did hire some horrible techs out of desperation and man did that ever cost me a ton of money in repairs.

Oh wait it gets better!!

During the summertime it rained so hard that our building kept flooding to the point car lift pulled out of the ground destroying 2 cars..oh yeah fun!!
Then the building was hit by lighting and started a fire!!
The good state of Florida decided to cut the field next to us after a year or so of not cutting it. Can you says rat infestation!! Ruin the insides of 2 cars!!

September 2012
We received a purchased through our website for a twin turbo Greddy kit. The order was processed and shipped. Only to find out it was a stolen card and I lost about 20K. So, bank accounts and credit card services was blacked flagged and about 15k frozen…good times

The straw that broke the camel’s back!
We got served by the state of Florida that building we’re in is in a lawsuit between two brothers and we pretty much had to leave….A very long story

Well my luck had finally changed

In the same month I was asked by the owner of Vortex would I like to work out of his shop and possibly run it?
VSR Motorsports.
S&R + Vortex = VSR
In Oct we started as VSR for banking purpose but still ran as S&R for the State records. Later on we made a full merge.
VSR blew up and became an overnight success!! Pumping out Porsche, Subaru and Nissan’s.
So what happen?
I don’t what it’s like in other parts of the country. But it’s super hard to find people who want to work and not steal your ideals. Hence the new single turbo kit made by shop down the street by an ex-employee.
So a few months ago I decided to sell my Dyno and equipment and take a Job as sales manager at PRS.

I made some mistakes and I tried to make everything right! I even flown to different parts of the country to fix cars that my employees damaged or broke a part. I have even shipped cars down to make right. Eat engines knowing i had nothing to do with the failure!

I supposedly, blew every engine we installed a turbo kit on..lies!! Which, I find funny considering my tuner at the time was turning the power down after the dyno run. And out of the many, many turbo kits, I can only think of couple engines blowing with my turbo kit on them and they had nothing to do with my turbo kit or tuning.

I am releasing a new turbo design and a closed deck conversion for the VQ platform. Very Soon and I plan on breaking the world record very soon!!!

Sucks to hear everything you had to go through but there's one thing you need to learn to do better besides trying to make everything right.

Communicate.

You may be a good guy bobby but you know what your communication skills suck ***. You're on here giving an explanation here's some honest criticism. I got tons of calls from you before I put a deposit down. I got 0 calls from you after that. I only heard from you when I called you,until you stopped answering then had to find out thru a bunch of random leads and phone calls that you left VSR and what was going on with my car.

Communicate with your customers better. Like I told you on the phone, wish you nothing but luck, but I went through a lot of stress because of you.


Anyways, business is business and I'm not a bitter guy. Hope your business grows and thrives, but since you're coming on here giving an explanation Lets all just be honest. Good luck man.

You know, it only took 30 seconds to look at this hack's post history and see that he claimed that in no less than three separate threads. In no uncertain terms. And now he backpedals, but still makes it clear it wasn't him.

I would sooner set my car on fire than let this genius touch it.

Let's be real, Bobby. If you blew up any more motors you'd have to change your name to Stillen.

So who exactly had blown motors with their kits? I've never seen them post up....if they're here can they post up? Would be nice to know the causes/circumstances behind each situation. I was one of the first one's with their kit and been boosting no problems for almost the past two years.
