[Read Part 1]

Part 2

Today just confirmed my decision yesterday to never, ever, ever send money to M7 Tuning.  In fact it will be mission too not only not send money to them, but never ever buy anything they make from anyone.

I arrived home after a few errands to see my replacement catch can waiting for me on the porch.  A signature was required and since no one was going to be home I left my nice Fed-Ex guy a note.  Telling him I was driving a girly ass convertible around and the part to fix my sweet car was in his hands.  He left it, thanks dude.

My jubilation was followed by tear, tears of anger and rage.  I opened the box and just like I said yesterday.  They just drilled some crappy holes about 1/2″ below the holes that were done in error.  I thought whatever…I’ve had it with driving this R52 around.  So I head out to the garage and attach the mount.

WAIT, WHAT?  WHAT THE F%&K DID THEY DO?  They just re-drilled two of the mounting points for the bracket.  You see, the can has four drilled holes, two sets of two, vertically.  The mount uses two of the vertical sets of holes to mount the bracket.  M7 decided to save some time and only re-drill two new sets of holes, not four.  So which set of two holes do you think the R55/56 uses?  YUP, THE TWO THEY DIDN’T DRILL OUT!  OMG

<insert long rants about doing things right the first time, don’t cut corners, always fed-ex next day when you f something up, blah, blah blah>

So I just got off the the phone with M7.  I told them I am sending everything back to them.  I should include a nice healthy deuce in the box too, but I’m more mature than that, today.

So now off to the dealer to pay $125 for a new recirculation tube, attached to a sensor and another hose I don’t need.

Oh yeah, I called Chad yesterday and ate some crow.  I’ll be ordering the BSH Catch Can online from him so he won’t feel the urge to rub it in a little more.  BTW Chad, my t-shirt size is XXL, just wrap it around one of those nice pint glasses, A? :)
