As the poop turns... [Goodbye ZPI] - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Nick [turboyaris] hasn't posted in a long time. He owns the car.

Kenny from ZPI ran to Texas. ZPI is no more. Can we all forget that kit ever existed and start working on a real manufacturer in hopes of getting someone new in the game?

Dezod makes turbo kits and they just moved to New York ROCKLAND. Why don't you get in contact with them and shell out the cheese and donate your car so the rest of the whiners can have a kit too?

it sucks when a small bussines goes out like this. plus the fact that they were taking money knowing the situation. is a shame...

when my brother and i closed our bussines all we owed was paid out before we took any money for our pockets. the only people we owed was the credit card machine company which i made an agreement to pay the following year.

sucks that people lost money to some assholes like that. i only bought from them once and i was happy with the service, but after reading all of this is just makes me sick!!!

Guys, seriously, this keeps getting more and more interesting. Read the second to last page. [Page 21] Go from there.

If Kenny Strickler is at turbochargers.com, that's another company I won't do business with.

ChinoCharles · 08-11-2007, 03:25 PM

He is... VP no less.

I was about to buy a Stage1 turbo kit for my tC when this happend... They have a really bad habit of not replying to customer emails before they even run off somewhere.

I like Dezod motorsports, the customer service is awesome and they even like other peoples products unlike ZPI that says (you should've got our turbo kit instead it's much faster than turbonetics : ( )

Maybe if you guys email Dezod alot about a high quality Yaris turbo that runs 200WHP, maybe they'll answer the call and make an awesome turbo for the Yarii!!! ; )

If you think I haven't thought of that by now... haha.

They need a car in their area and an owner with some money. Period. If anyone in NY wanted to step up and fork over the cash for one of a handful of turbo Yarises in this country... call Paul.

forpinks · 08-11-2007, 03:48 PM

Or you could drive to NY, have a turbo installed, and be the first discounted Dezod Yaris prototype kit! : )

Make sure you get passed the ZPI WHP with stock or turbo internals.

I emailed turbochargers.com to say that if Kenny (from ZPI) was working there, I wouldn't do business with them (yes, I think he's that bad).

Kenny emailed me back "Thanks for the support!!" (LOL)

So... for your entertainment, here is my reply:

Quote:

You broke promises you made to me, and outright lied to both me and my shop. You got married and went away on honeymoon during the time you promised to complete work for me (meaning you knew ahead of time you wouldn't be able to keep your promise). Just one example.

You lied about the availability of the Quaife LSD (it was a payment issue, not a customs issue as you claimed).
Then, I had to threaten to sue your company to get my refund (took almost two months).
You wouldn't return our phone calls to settle the issue.

If you'd like to earn my support now, be honest about that and then start from there.
