want to look into another kit for your customers. oh and the banjo bolts that you used for the turbo coolant feed lines and what ever gaskets and or sealants you used for the rest of the engine didn't work so great. just an fyi. besides that, the car has been a gem since it left your hands.
almost forgot...the engine compression ratio is a 9.0 not the 9.5 you disclosed to me in the paper work.

don't let nicks hear you say that....he'll wish the reaper on you........(more)
i'm kidding nick so don't go getting a hard on.
yeah...i love it when other mechanics just sit back and stare in amazement at the **** job he did that took 13 months, obviously had i known then i would've never picked up the car, but i'm no damn mechanic either and just trusted the guy way too much and he took advantage of me. shame on him.
one day i was in houston and called staley; he went on and on about all the progress that was being made on the car and how it was on the lift "i'm working on it as we speak". then i came walking up only to find my car sitting in the very back and it had yet to be touched since he original dismantle....needless to say, not only did he look like a jackass, the look on his face was priceless when he saw mine.

who knows....still in the process of breaking it down. i would be careful of your wife's S4. he
is just a hack and sucks at what he does. i remember when i was there when he worked on your wife's car and for fear of something happening to her car, i would go in and have it replaced by someone who knows what the hell they are doing.
the work he did on my car and everything that he has touched has gone to ****. i've had several mechanics call his shop just to get an idea of what's going on with the car so they have a base to start off with and he has yet to man up an answer questions. my car has been in the shop pretty much since it left his hands.
besides that...how the hell are ya? still in hawaii? cheers!!!

Staley is a fraud!
IMHO, the guy is not interested in running a legit biz.. He's screwed over countless people in Houston. All I can say is Good luck!! There's a reason he doesn't respond to posts anymore... He's screwed over a few too many peeps in Houston.. And if you need something after the fact, forget about it! he is MIA! Bad biz practices. File it with the BBB and write it off as a learning experience!
