get a new tuner, the shop you had it at is obviously not a good one, especially if they claim you have to break in a turbo

If the car knocks like hell and you are running a cat you might have plugged it up. Are you running one or a test pipe?

And yes, it sounds like your shop of choice might suck.

wow, that sux, and all at 3500 miles. It sounds like ur 'reputable' installer/tuner isn't so reputable. And it kinda sounds like u drove it a lot more times than you should have.

wow......... omg, lawyer time.


Not to insult your intelligence but did you have all spark plugs out during a compression test when you cranked over? Also did you have the throttle to the floor wide open? ALSO did you pull the fuel fuse so that you didn't wash the oil away from the seals (i forgot this one when i did mine)

If you did all those, do me/you a favor and do the same test and drop a little bit of motor oil down inside through the spark plug holes, let's see if your compression instantly gets higher from that. You need just enough to run along side the piston and drip along the edges to improve the seal.

OH... AND SUE THE SHIT OUTA THAT INSTALLER!
