I try to pay attention and keep track of everyone who does have the VSR single turbo on their 370Z to see how everyone is doing in relation to my own build. I've had the VSR kit on my car for over a year now, since Aug 13. Its been my daily driver, been on several long distance road trips (over 500 miles round trip), dyno'd at 4 different facilities (VSR, Motion Lab, Z1, Soho Motorsports), driven hard and done several 1/4 mile runs on drag radials. My motor is still alive and still seems to be pulling strong with no problems.
VSR should know who their customers are.

They have DEFINITELY had their kit blow up motors

Do you have proof that VSR was directly responsible for damaging/blowing up engines? I could only see them or any other companies kit having DEFINITELY blow up motors if they were directly tuning or working on the car when it blew up. If the owner was not maintaining the vehicle properly, an other party messed up the tune or other parts, or any other reason not in direct relation to VSR should not be held against that company. I just don't like defamation of an entity without proof or evidence. IF there is any out there I would definitely be interested in seeing it so that I can learn as well as everyone else.

I was asked not to share by the owners of the cars who are not on the forum.

The argument was made that NO car with the VSR kit has had a motor blow... Which is 100% horseshit... Read up on the one that's confirmed on the forum. Car catching on fire, yeahhhh... Sure Bobby didn't hear about that... My major issue is the balls Bobby has in making that bullshít statement.
