Here is a reply from the shop owner. Seems reasonable to me...

hi
first I would like to say it is kind of messed up judging a shop , on the false comments of one person. I am the owner of krazy house , and feel I should get a chance to explain.

First Franklin is right , it took us a while to strap down the m5 that was there to dyno. that is because the guy I had helping me , who is no longer with my company was to slow, there fore I had to get some one else to help.

Franklin also forgot to mention that I wasn't even taking dynos that day , and did it out of courtesy because they showed up.

Franklin also forgot to mention yes we were going slow, U would to if it was about 98 degrees in your shop, and had no reason to rush.


second what Franklin also didnt tell everyone is that even if I had no load on the dyno there would still be 1650 lbs of load from the rollers , which is still enough force for a car that only weighs according to Franklin 2200 lbs.. but my dyno was still putting an additional 340 lbs worth of load which brings it to approxx 2000 lbs..
so that is not away to blow a motor.

the reason why the calculations were wrong had nothing to do with load, but everything to do with the mathematical calculations the dyno used to calculate the hp. when U switch over from 4wd to 2wd the dyno changes all the formulas, but this time it left the inertia at #3400 lbs, although it was not seeing this much inertia it was calculating the numbers according to that, if U would like me to explain feel free to call the shop any time.


third Franklin also forgot to mention that he said his car spins to 9000 rpm with a stock brand new motor with only 45000 miles....now how does that make sense..45000 is NOT brand new?

for the 2nd run I found out according to his tach his rev limiter kicked in at 8100 rpm.
on the first run I spun it to 6000 rpm and stopped cause I told him it sounds like his motor is blowing up, he said no that's how it should sound, and his tuner said it was fine. well obviously not.

did 2 runs and truthfully, the car sounded like crap, and to my dismay I was right , the motor was blowing up...

Franklin also forgot to tell U guys when I checked his oil it was black and dirty and def thin, which is a great way to wreck bearings ..

as to the people who like to judge feel free to come to the shop and actually meet us, before U judge us.were not children . as far as his motor is concerned if I thought it was my fault I would fix it , but this is not the case. Feel free to call any time 7329519111

as for red 96 civic, i dont know how we ripped your girl off, i thought u and her were happy with the work that was done, i also met her father who was a very nice guy, if she in any way is not happy tell her to let me know and i will get to the bottom of it. I also want to state that it doesn't seem logic that if you thought your girlfriend was getting ripped off..why you and her father would agree to the price? This shop is new and the last thing I want to do is rip people off and have a bad image..that just wouldn't make sense? This shop is something that I always wanted to do and love to do.. nothing gives me more pleasure then to see people happy with the work we've done, but guess what ...it's not what I survive on? would I like to make money..yes eventually.. but like I said before if anyone really knows me they know that I'm not in it to screw people!


by the way, everyone knows.. running on a dyno is at your risk,, and any one who knows about cars knows u cant blow a car up by not having enough load, cause alot of dynos cant even load the car properly...... as for franklin, his false accusations to try and get a free motor , and to take buisness from my shop , has already been discussed with my law firm... they assure me that its not small claims court u need to worry about , but big boy court, the kind that u will need to actually pay for a lawyer...thank u for taking the time to read this
