Avoid GREDDY and Sport Compact Only
Warning to fellow car owners out there to stay away from Greddy
products and if you do make the mistake of purchasing a Greddy product make sure you don't buy it from Sport Compact Only. Both companies have insulting warranty programs and are utterly useless. I purchased a Greddy SP2 from Sport Compact Only back in September. Less than 3 months later the resonator started making a vibrating noise. I have two service shops confirm it's the resonator and suggest I start the warranty process with Greddy. The warranty process is this......Both Greddy and Sport Compact Only expect you to dismantle your exhaust system and send the whole darn thing in for "inspection" WITHOUT sending a replacement part at the same time. I'm told the process can take anywhere from 1 to 2 months. For two companies to think I have a fleet of cars at my disposal so I can dismantle one of them just to get a replacement part is ridiculous. Stay away from these two companies. |

I'd love to get a turbocharger, and perhaps a higher-flow exhaust. But, I'll never do it. In the end, it just isn't worth it. You risk ****ing up your engine, voiding any warranty, and not having your $20,000+ toy available to you. It's fine if you have the wads of cash lying around to allow you a couple of cars to fool around with, and not impact your daily ride, but for most of us it is just foolish. My big question to the OP, why would you expect them to send you out a new exhaust system before they have determined that something is actually wrong with the one you have, or that the problem is covered under warranty? And if it is a design flaw, how would them sending you out a replacement help? If you are making changes like this to your only vehicle, you should have kept the stock parts around. To make a major change like this, and not have a spare (not knowing what the new system will do, long term) is just plain silly. |
