SCM6152 Plea
OK so I'm sure this is just about out of the question, but here it goes. I'm from northern MN and I have an appointment at DB in Rogers on the 30th of July. I ordered a SCM6152S (S Cover) from Slowboy Racing awhile back and knowing their shipping process I'm sure it wont arrive in time for me to be able to use it, and I have no other turbo to use in its place. So my plea is this....If anyone in the Metro area has a SCM6152 I could use for tuning purposes it would be much appreciated, I don't want to have to cancel my appointment because it will end up costing me about $140 just for the reservation. Also if this doesnt happen for me, if anyone else would like to take my spot on the dyno for the 30th you can contact me at 218-556-7518 or PM me on here. Thanks for any help.

Re: SCM6152 Plea
You could just cancel your order with slowboy and order the turbo through DB or another one of the forum venders.

Re: SCM6152 Plea
That is a possibility, but as far as the whole rescheduling goes, I would still really like this to happen on this date.

Re: SCM6152 Plea
Well thats what I ment. You might be able to get a turbo before the 30th from one of the local vendors faster than from Slowboy. So You could have your turbo and make your appointment on time.

Re: SCM6152 Plea
If you give DB enough notice (read 3 days or more) they can move your deposit for you.
Have you talked to slowboy to see how much longer until it gets to you? If you called DB tomorrow, they could also call pte tomorrow and see how long it would take to get the turbo to you.

Re: SCM6152 Plea
Well I will call up DB and Map tomorrow to see if that is a possibility, thanks for the suggestion. Yeah I've contacted Slowboy already, and they now, like always, have no idea where anything is or when it should arrive.

Re: SCM6152 Plea
People never learn. Its posted all over this board how bad SBR is. Go buy the turbo from MAP or DB and you'll probably get it in under a week.

Re: SCM6152 Plea
PTE turbos are usually custom built though, so if they are out of a specific part, it can sometimes take a while. Before we order turbos for customers, we talk to our rep at PTE and make sure everything is instock or find out about how long it will be.

Re: SCM6152 Plea
Fuk slowboy, just work with db (ecoli) on getting a turbo. Maybe you could end up with one of the new 62mm turbos.....

Re: SCM6152 Plea
Well I called and harrassed the shit outta Slowboy today and they contacted Precision and made them dropship the turbo to my house, and the Fedex tracking says it will be to my door Monday, so dyno no cancel. Thanks everyone for their input. By the way what is the new "62mm"?

Re: SCM6152 Plea
It's the next 61.
And by that I mean the next hot street setup that "everyone" will be going for.
