Motodyne is a guy called Robert Hack. I heard he has ripped many people off.

Friday I took my s4 to motodyne to be fitted with a supercharger. First I want to note prior to the purchase of this supercharger I contacted an S8 owner who has been running the motodyne kit for over a year. He told me he experienced no drivability issues or trouble with the car. Now I made a similar inquiry in the Audiworld D2 forum and was chastised for asking.
When I talked to Rob, the owner of Motodyne about the system he went into detail about the system for over an hour, he told me I could expect about 502hp and an ungodly amount of torque. In short; i think he knew i didn't understand everything he was talking about... so his words to me were and i quote.
" I originally built this kit for myself not the audiworld enthusiast market, my goal was to make as much reliable horsepower as possible, being it's my 24 application i wanted to challenge myself and set a benchmark in it's design knowing how many of my competitors will be watching. The system should be priced at 30 thousand dollars and would still sell heavily in Europe and the Arab countries. But guys from Michigan and Texas will send in emails crying about it's price, heck they're already bitching that it's 11 and change".

I'll report my ride home when i go back to pick up the car, cheers

He has ripped off many. I'd stay away from him. Do a search on AW and you'll see how many friends he has.

Did you do the search on aw for starters. Try "robert hack" and "motodyne". Also search on Rennlist he has friends there too. He's made claims on products like this before and has not delivered. I'd be very afraid for my car if I were you.

So that's your first hand experience, just an audiworld search. A group that's running a known smear campaign on such companies.

I think your posts are clearly the same, all based on lies to make a company look bad.

Here are the facts from another audiworld motodyne customer

"In the 4 years of existence motodyne shows one complaint with the BBB , and it's been resolved"

just a sidenote, the fact that they have no complaints w/ the BBB doesn't mean they have good service. i for one know a handful of companies who gave me terrible experience and only resolved the issue after i threatened to complain to the BBB...

so take that with a grain of salt. im not bad mounthing motodyne, ive never had anything to do w/ them, but just letting you know.

btw, you're drawing your facts from AW as are the guys telling you to stay away from motodyne, so dont complain when they say something... tis contradictory.

I hear ya on the BBB point. That alone does not mean much, I looked for complaints online about repairs and the supercharger itself and found nothing. The only thing I repeatedly came across were the audiworld posts that stated "there is no 12v supercharger, there is no belt on the 4.2L supercharger". After contacting the authors of these posts. I got replies like: "well i never bought anything from them, but concluded they were bad from reading in audiworld"


How well a smear campaign works you might ask? Well I'd have to side with motodyne on this one it's truly amazing.

How are my posts lies? I stated where to find some info. I do have a complaint filed, but not with the BBB. The BBB is bullshit. You can buy your way into that organization. I know from experience. Unfortunately, there is no one enforcing transactions taking place over the internet and this is where he has taken a lot of people I know personally and myself.

I have seen similar issues with AMD on AW. Major issues because they don't like the way he types his emails. A lot of conjecture with no real experience in the posts. I spoke with the guy frow AMD and he was very helpful and knew alot about the cars.

When I went to the AMD European site there were numerous awards for their work with Audi/VW. Because they were new to the US most people there just dismissed them.

I didnt think I would start this kind of firestorm!
Ive personally seen a Motodyne 2.8 5V, and it ran like a bat out of hell. But it did have its running issues that never were solved, and the owner eventually removed the kit. However, the kit was installed by a shade-tree mechanic, so whos to say what the problem actually stemmed from..
I say, good luck with the car! Id love to see pics and hear how it runs. Ill be hella jelous if everything goes as planned!

Hey tuned S4, could you please let us know if you needed a new hood and/or intake manifold for fitment issues? Can we find out more info on this?...

01-25-2005, 10:50 AM
Hey Guys,
The supercharger is inverted so it will sit inside the V of the motor I was told. I will get my factory Audi intake manifold back in a box along with the factory equipped sparkplugs, injectors and a few other items. The hood stays the same..... I'd most likely pass on the system otherwise. Although madmax's car was cool.... could you imagine a supercharger outside the hood of an Audi? I coudn't

I just recently sold my home in Portsmouth Ohio, and will move in April. The sale of my home probably invoked my decision to sink a few bucks into the s4 .
I will keep you posted

Let me Guess you read this in Audiworld.

I'm driving a loaner a4 that has a supercharged 12v for two weeks until I pick up my s4. Tell that to the skeptics that motodyne lends out 12v supercharged a4's, and early a6's to customers.
So if they are correct everything sitting under the hood is an illusion.

I guess what i'm reading below must be true because it's published on the internet

TUNED S4 - at this point, (with your car in the shop) why even read any of the negative things said about Motodyne?

Do enough reading from enough sources and EVERY make and model of EVERY product will have its fair share of naysayers. As an example:

Before getting my Audi, I read a ton on complaints on audizine about problems with interior dials/knobs chipping and the black coating flaking. Then I read about horror stories with service quality. Hell, for that matter, my 1 month old S4 had a problem with a tail light out, a problem programming the memory in the driver's seat and now I am awaiting for my radio to be replaced. And yet, people still buy Audi's. With respect to my E46, some people have had nothing but horror stories, others haven't so much as had a squeak.

Also - you will always hear much more from the dissatisfied people than those that have no problems and thus no reason to post about it.

Bottom line - you did your research, you were confident in your decision - so don't sweat it.

What's done is done. He already gave the car in. Let's all just wish him the best and reserve opinions until after he gets the car back. Can't wait to hear your reactions to it. ENJOY!!

i do not trust that guy nor his shop. Back in the day when i was going to piece together a turbo kit(none out yet) i took my car to a "shop" We talked to this guy at motodyne. He was raving about a single turbo kit he had out for the s4. It was even on his website. He told us how he got the special software to unlock the factory ecu and change the programs to tune the car. Then a couple days later, we asked him to come by the shop with the turbo kit so i could take a look. Never showed, never emailed back, and hung up when i called him from different numbers. He obviously didnt have any kit even made. Just my 2 cents. I hope though, on the flip side, things turn out good for you. keep us updated on your expierence with motodyne.

That car your asking about is a single turbo 2001 s4, and it's real.
When I met Rob, he was bitching about guys like you, LOL "Said all they do is call obsessively, come in and take notes and go back to there tuning shop and make it, while S@$T talking on the person they stole it from in AW.

Take a look ROUGHEDGES at how people work these days. You must drive a Truck or work in Daycare, your definatly not in the retail business....
Gee I wonder how they came up with this idea?

i am not talking crap. I am simply giving a situation that happened to me. And we called "once" and he was the one who was exicted to show off the product. I was pissed that i took a two hour drive for nothing. I even verfied it with my shop who had talked to him the day before. BTW speedtech is a real company. They have been for years now. My car was at speedtechs shop but WAS not being worked on by mark. It was being worked on by a individual that i will not mention his name. This guy robbed me for every rs4 part that could be on the engine. They only thing i actually got was my heads ported. He stole the parts out of my car once it was on the flatbed. I dont want to get into that anymore. So get all your info before you make a stupid post. I am not bashing. I am just saying that if he actually showed up, i problary would have bought his turbo kit. i just, personally, wont trust someone who didnt show up after i took a long drive. I said nothing about the quality of his work or products. I have never seen anything from him so i will not make judgements on them. He just didnt come through for me. I HOPE you car comes out and its a beast. I not hating so calm yourself son.

because something happens once, its a mistake. If it happens to 10 people over the last 2 years its something to LOOK at. I was in the same shoes as you guys. i said the same thing about people being haters. I wanted to take my car to (mystery mechanic) because my head got clogged with all the bs he was throwing at
me. I was young, stupid and 6500 bucks poorer. I should have listened before acting. And again i am not hating, just been in this exact situation before and wish i wasnt so stubborn with taking advice. It really sucked to get taken like that. I am much more precautious now.

THE RENAMED SHOP AUTOSPEED PERFORMANCE.

YOUR POST INDICATES THE COMPANY SPEEDTECH I MEAN AUTOSPEED PERFOMANCE WAS SHADY ALONG WITH THE GUYS R&R' ING YOUR MOTOR .

SO YOUR CONCLUSION IS:
" MOTODYNE DOES NOT HAVE A REAL TURBO KIT BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T WANT TO SELL OR WORK WITH YOUR CRIMINAL AUTO REPAIR SHOP".

HELP ME OUT IF I'M MISSING SOMETHING.....[headbang]
UNREAL MAN, BLAMING MOTODYNE BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T WANT TO GET INVOLVED WITH YOUR BOGUS MECHANIC.

THINK MAYBE MOTODYNE SAW THE WRITING ON THE WALL WITH YOU & YOUR "PROFESSIONAL FRIENDS" AND RELATED TUNING COMPANY(S) NAME CHANGE WHY? AND OPTED NOT TO ANSWER YOUR CALL LET ALONE DRIVE INTO YOUR MESS

I THINK A CIVILIZED BUSINESS PERSON IN ANY TRADE WOULD NOT GET INVOLVED WITH YOU AND YOUR CREW FOR THE REASONS EXPLAINED IN YOUR OWN WORDS/POSTS ROUGHEDGES

SO YOU WENT WITHOUT ROB AND MOTODYNE AND GOT A HALF BUILT MOTOR AND YOUR PARTS STOLEN, SOUNDS LIKE IT ALL WOKED OUT WELL......LOL

Your are not understanding. Keep on protecting motodyne. I never said they were bad quality. He is the one who offered to do the turbo, not speedtech. He didnt come through. period. If he was such a good buisnessman, he wouldnt have acted like a 16 schoolgirl and picked up the phone and said that he didnt want to do buisness with us. He has that choice. He simply could of said no and not wasted my time. If anything is bad buisness it is that. I didnt want to get into this but these are my dealings with him. You rebuted with your last post. Wouldnt answering and saying he didnt want to work with us be the right thing and good buisness practice.
I really hope your car comes out well and would def. like to see pics or even a ride. I would take the trip down there to see how his work is. I am not a hater, just relating to my dealings with him. Hit me up with a email with pics if you want, and also let me know how your dealing with motodyne was. I know 10k is alot to shell out and you are really trusting in the person the most. If you feel comfortable with him, good. I never got a chance to meet him, so my posts were on the facts that happened. This is not about opinion for me, i just told you my story, and yes there are different sides to everything. Good luck again

I think that roughedges replied civily and maturely and hes only telling of his experiences along with the rest. 2ndly, your age has NOTHING to do with this situation, nor does it make you any wiser with car tuners than any of us that have researched. If you arent worried about your experience with them, good for you, personally i would never do what you are doing with a company that has such a record of poor service and sheisty practices. however, like i said, thats MY OPINION, although many others may share it. Its not like we are here to sway you away from doing business with motodyne or robert, because obviously its in progress already, just a warning of what it could come to. also, theres nothing too amazing about being lent a supercharged 12v 2.8 a4, that car is worth probably less than a set of nice wheels.

Well, I guess I shouldn't be surprised to see some drama here. There always seems to be a few brands of tuners for each type of car that have a really mixed rep (deserved or not). I think I'll hold off on forming an opinion until I have heard some first person reviews either way of these guys. Besides, that's a damned expensive supercharger setup.

what supercharger? One of my best friends is laguna01///m3 from e46fanatics.
He was looking at a couple, and i saw that they ranged from around 6k( active autowerks iirc) to 25k(evosport?). sorry i just realized you said m3 and not e46. I think i might like the e36 just as much as the e46. Both are quick and nimble cars stock.

I just believe badmouthing a company all over the Internet because they didn't want to work with your mechanic/theives is morally incorrect.
I am not angry at anyone here, nor do I think I am always right about everything.
I guess I find in funny that you praise autospeed even after your venture with them left you with half a motor and in short ripped off. As your story above tells

But crucify motodyne or the man that doesn't want to return a call. I guess the people at motodyne that you wanted to see at autospeeds shop-/door step..... there time and effort means nothing you think?

Just curious, did you ever think motodyne bailed out because they knew you were working with a bad mechanic?


Teach me, maybe thats what the problem is i'm having trouble learning

1) Mechanic and tuner shop with name change that cheats customer (roughedges) out of 6,500 dollars is so good his name can't be mentioned.

2)Motodyne did not return Roughedges call to meet shady mechanic . So they get hammered by roughedges. His related posting on the net show this

Thats what i gather so far

Aside from all of this, I'm sorry to hear you got taken from autospeeds mechanic thats not right

Ok, but back to good buisness practice. Just say you dont want to work with us. Dont ignore and give a run around. Honestly, people dont give someone a bad name, the company does. Avalon motorsports, awe, moss, these are all great tuners with solid reputations. When you have one bad comment towards a tuner, it should be brushed off. Two bad comments, and it should raise an eyebrow. This guy rob has SEVERAL people that had bad dealings with him. It seems he only works 1 week a year, his shop always seems to be closed. People have bought parts from him and never recieved them. And then on ebay he has ripped off many many people. I dont believe the thing of it not being him selling these parts. Since three years ago, there has been many posts from here to audiworld to porsche forums to general automotive forums that state that people paid for a part that was never seen along with a refund. Search google, audiworld, audizine, rennlist and you will find several posts of people being ripped off that dealt directly with him, not over ebay. He even robbed a couple people that bought superchargers and never gave them there money back.

Walter,

I've talked with MotoDyne a few times since the first of this post. I am about to take the plunge here too. Please update us on everything... communication with them, how long it's been, how long it's expected to take, etc. Also, do you have an exhaust? They told me that the 502HP was with the stock exhaust. I'd love to see what it makes with my Milltek (that's being installed next week). Anxious to hear what you think. I guess I'm going alot off your word. Peace.

walter, props on being one of the first to pull the trigger on forced induction for your S4. The bottom line is, when it comes to the aftermarket, "money talks, **** walks" and clearly you must have the disposable income to make the supercharger happen.

Having been in the industry as a vendor a for a few years, I've realized that a lot of people are all talk and most of the guys doing the real work just laugh off the people who post all day on the forums.

Regardless of any product out there, there will always be a naysayer.

Yeah, S/C's for E46's tend to be a little more expensive... I love my E36, almost as much as my S4... By the way, Active Aurowerks one is the one I was looking at. I have done a fair bit of research, and it seems to be the best overall for the money.

Weather permitting my car should hit the track at Atco raceway for Q mile times Tuesday. Rob has updated me with install/progress PICS. He told me NOT to post them because guys like the fellow above will distribute them and claim they are the finished product and that will just allow for more bad PR. Anyhow I can't wait to drive my car and will post about my car and do MY OWN pictures for my car and upload them.
So far motodyne has and is doing everything they said they would, including dyno pulls and related supercharger documentation and tuning.

FYI, aside from my 05 they are housing a 2004 s4 and S8. I can't remember which car he said was going to be fitted with a bored and stroked 4.2L with low compression. In short it will be a 5.1L with high boost.
The oiling system and crank alone was almost the price of my setup...

I guess i have something to strive for when my cars out of warranty a stroker motor.

In my experience you'd have to do alot more than put in a K+N in order to void the warranty, at least here in Texas. I've seen a bunch of folks get transmission or engine work covered after having put in an aftermarket intake. The big thing is that the dealership has to prove that the modification is what caused the problem in order to not cover it. A defective "X" has to be covered, as long as the mod was not the major contributing factor...

On the other hand, a supercharger will void the engine and possibly tranny warranty, just like you said (I'd love to know what Audi officially rates the transmission to in the way of torque and hp).

I guess the real question is whether or not the S/C manufacturer will offer a warranty on the engine ala Dinan and Bimmer or Stillen and the Nissan 350Z.

Wow a lot of replies. I think the warranty on the car is about as good as the service manager who writes up the repair.

To give you an example: a long time ago I had a Lingenfelter prepared Corvette I was always burning up the brakes on it and bringing it into the GM dealer for repair. The service manger when he did my paper work always said to me "What turbocharger."
If they all were that kind, not one of my cars would be stock.

Regarding my motodyne supercharger system, the car will get a different fuel pressure regulator, injectors and ECM software/firmware which comes with the system

If you understood how badly motodyne ripped off vw/audi/porsche owners, then you'd understand all the commotion. If you're looking for a supercharger, don't worry, the kits are coming out soon.

When I talked to Rob, the owner of Motodyne about the system he went into detail about the system for over an hour, he told me I could expect about 502hp and an ungodly amount of torque. In short; i think he knew i didn't understand everything he was talking about... so his words to me were and i quote.
" I originally built this kit for myself not the audiworld enthusiast market, my goal was to make as much reliable horsepower as possible, being it's my 24 application i wanted to challenge myself and set a benchmark in it's design knowing how many of my competitors will be watching. The system should be priced at 30 thousand dollars and would still sell heavily in Europe and the Arab countries. But guys from Michigan and Texas will send in emails crying about it's price, heck they're already bitching that it's 11 and change".

Glad to see how well the Audiworld smear campaign is still working at its fullest potential. For anyone that questions what I've chosen to do to my s4, come see it while it's being put together, and for anyone with balls go to Motodyne.

For the blind and/or retarded that think Sheepworld, I mean, Audiworld has anything real on Motodyne, get your fat, poor, lazy, wanna be, poser, internet post whore, libel talking, trash addicted, paint shop pro Audi modding ass to Motodyne and see for your own eyes what they offer for the s4, and the other models like I did. And you'll start to see how much wool has been pulled over your eyes by a smear campaign that was mostly generated by PES tuning and their white trash vendors in Texas called QRSmotorsports, which to no surprise is no longer in business.

I find it extremely hilarious that the 500 dollar Audi 90 audiworld members talk about motodyne and motodyne products like they know anything first hand. I've heard all the reports of fraud, yet not one case with merit. Look at the people that chimed into this thread with claims, when called on, magically disappear.

Now I've spoken to Rob, and out of 3 thousand customers, he said maybe two will never be pleased. As a business owner I get the concept that no matter how hard one tries, there will always be somebody that's never satisfied no matter what.

Now if you read the Audiworld posts that index in google it will look like there are 3 thousand unsatisfied customers because 5 or 6 employees from the tuner shops mentioned above who encourage a dozen more enthusiasts with no life to concurrently post lies based on propaganda.

The mission serves one purpose: to cancel people's interest in Motodyne. I'll bet my car and about 20 grand of my own money that what I'm saying is the truth behind what you read.

For the blind and/or retarded that think Sheepworld, I mean, Audiworld has anything real on Motodyne, get your fat, poor, lazy, wanna be, poser, internet post whore, libel talking, trash addicted, paint shop pro Audi modding ass to Motodyne and see for your own eyes what they offer for the s4, and the other models like I did. And you'll start to see how much wool has been pulled over your eyes by a smear campaign that was mostly generated by PES tuning and their white trash vendors in Texas called QRSmotorsports, which to no surprise is no longer in business.

I find it extremely hilarious that the 500 dollar Audi 90 audiworld members talk about motodyne and motodyne products like they know anything first hand. I've heard all the reports of fraud, yet not one case with merit. Look at the people that chimed into this thread with claims, when called on, magically disappear.

Now I've spoken to Rob, and out of 3 thousand customers, he said maybe two will never be pleased. As a business owner I get the concept that no matter how hard one tries, there will always be somebody that's never satisfied no matter what.

Now if you read the Audiworld posts that index in google it will look like there are 3 thousand unsatisfied customers because 5 or 6 employees from the tuner shops mentioned above who encourage a dozen more enthusiasts with no life to concurrently post lies based on propaganda.

The mission serves one purpose: to cancel people's interest in Motodyne. I'll bet my car and about 20 grand of my own money that what I'm saying is the truth behind what you read.

Rob,
It's interesting that you've already announced a price for the kit...usually that's done AFTER development, AFTER testing, and AFTER locking down suppliers for the various parts. And surely you've done all that...because you're the first to market with a B6 supercharger kit, right? And yet, despite all that hard work, there is ZERO information on your website regarding this kit. A kit, mind you, that many people would be standing in line to get their hands on.

And the secrecy about taking the car to Atco?? Intersting.... Not done with it, but you've nailed down a price?

Tell you what...give me a date, I'll come down (mapquest says I'm 30 miles away), and we'll take some pictures, maybe a few videos. Surely if the kit exists, and the installation has been progressing for nearly 2 weeks now, there is something to show for it, right? How about some preliminary pictures just to wet people's appetites? It would be great for business, don't you think? Monday night good for you?

That is absolutely hilarious. Now I know you are Hack...

THE MOTODYNE WEBPAGE WAS UPDATE JUST MINUTES AFTER I MADE THE COMMENT ABOUT THE MAYBACH.

People on here know me and I would not lie. Stop trying to rip people off. I am kicking myself for not taking a screenshot.

It is currently 12:20 am on Feb. 6 and the Motodyne webpage was last update on Feb. 6. Thats interesting...

Oh yeah, you still forgot to change some info. According to your website info, the upgrade only covers one turbo and would decrease boost to 7 psi. The Maybach turbos stock run up to over 18 psi. So, according to your webpage decreasing the psi on one turbo should yield over 1200 hp and 1300 ft lbs of torque. The info you hastily changed on your website also has the wrong tranny. LOL. Go ahead and change the webpage before others see it. I have proof now. You have been owned. Period.

I would say it's time to put down the hash pipe. Aparently you're so high you don't even know what day it is.......

7psi is plenty with N20, it's called a boost controller, Some Audis use this to control boost levels acorording to gear selection; a good example is the URS4

From Motodynes site:
"By applying a computer controlled fueling system that incorporates support fuel and Nitrous Oxide combined with modest boost pressure of 7psi from the compressor, this method has a doubling effect on power output, making acceleration extremely fast and responsive. "

Emphasize the part about "modest boost".

You should email Rob and tell him to put an "s" on the word "compressor", especially since everyone here is going to buy a Maybach now thanks to your endorsement.

So by decreasing the boost from 18 to 7 psi and adding NO2 to a bi turbo V12, your "AMG" upgrade makes 1200hp??? I'm sure AMG would do this. We all know how fond AMG is of decreasing boost to add power. And we all know AMG uses nitrous extensively.[rolleyes] Its a 5 speed tranny by the way, not six.

This is so ridiculous I'm done. You have defended Motodyne like you have something to lose.... If people don't know you are Hack or affiliated with the Motodyne scam after these posts, they are retarded. Enough. Someone lock this thread or band this clown.

Maybe you can buy the Motodyne ZF trans with the RV overdrive unit to show your Maybach friends how they got an extra gear for fuel economy since they add extra weight.

Since you're another suspicious simple minded jerk, just look at the Callaway Vette data sheet: they did the same...all your remarks show how little you know about Motodyne's tuning program.

The only scam I'm noticing around here is people trying to pass themselves off as being smart because they read a Motortrend magazine.

According to your previous statement it was AMGs tuning program, not Motodyne. I can't make any sense of your first sentence, so I'll just say this: Maybachs have a 5 speed and your site claims a six speed.

BTW I don't own a Maybach. I said that in jest indicated by the sarcastic emoticon. I just used the Maybach as an example to point out the huge flaws on the website which were coincidently changed immediately after my post. Please, stop dragging me into this garbage.

Renntech uses AMG parts, why don't you start a smear campaign about them?

I think if one reads this entire thread from start to finish, they would see it's just a smear campaign. A good example is when looking into 4 years worth of claims of wrong doings on Motodyne's part...if the claims were real, the internet posts regarding them would look more like the factual finds regarding Hennessey's Vipers

Taken form the net:
linked here: ]http://www.automotiveforums.com/t39700.html
I read about this on Autoweek after reading posts from actual pissed off Viper owners who got screwed out of HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS.


Hennessey's Vipers are fast, but lawsuits say he serves them up too slowly. (Photo by Mark Vaughn)
Ninety-eight percent of his customers love him, John Hennessey says. But a few hate him and some have sued. Hennessey Motorsports in Houston specializes in tuning Vipers, adding more power to what is already one of the most powerful cars in the world. Hennessey’s Vipers have been featured in this and many other magazines and the cars he has sent to us and to other media were impressive performers. Hennessey presents himself well, projecting an image of the consummate Texas good ol’ boy whose reassuring conversational style and howyewdoin’ demeanor put customers at ease. People believe they will get what he says he’ll give them. But not all people do.

According to a lawsuit filed in Salt Lake City, Utah resident Taig Stewart sent his Viper GTS to Hennessey last May for an engine upgrade to 1100 hp along with several other modifications. For that he wire-transferred $142,500 to Hennessey. The lawsuit states the parties agreed the car would be done by mid-July 2001. As of press time the car was still sitting under a tarp in Hennessey’s shop in Houston. Or most of the car, anyway. Stewart’s suit claims Hennessey sold the car’s engine, transmission, wheels, tires and hood. The suit seeks return of the money, the Viper and “no less than $1 million” in punitive damages.

Hennessey claims he’s just slow in getting the work done.

“My side of the story is we’re planning on finishing his car and planning on giving him everything that he paid for,” said Hennessey. As for the parts being sold, “That’s totally false. We’ve got all his parts in the shop except the hood and he wanted to do a lightweight hood.”

Stewart is not the first unsatisfied customer. The longer we dug the more dissatisfaction we found. Here’s a sampling:

On Nov. 14 a New Jersey court entered a final judgement of $133,674 against Hennessey on behalf of Viper owner Gary Dan for a botched conversion.

William Walters said he is out over $22,000 after shipping his Corvette to Hennessey for a head and cam package that was never done; he did have five rods bent and a head gasket damaged on the dyno in Hennessey’s shop during an experiment Hennessey tried with nitrous oxide.

Jerry Johnson said he had to file suit in Placer County Court in California to straighten out registration and engine computer problems on a Viper he bought from Hennessey. n Jon Belinkie said he loves the changes made to his Viper but had to sue in his home state of Maryland, then register the judgement in Texas, to recover overcharges Hennessey made on his American Express card.

Rick Ryan said he had to hound Hennessey for eight months by long distance from Marietta, Georgia, to put the proper wing and stripes on his Viper.

Mark Lublin said he sent his Viper cylinder heads to Hennessey for new valves but when the heads came back he found the “new” valves were actually used; a cam that was delivered to Lublin in a Hennessey box turned out to be a stock Chrysler cam. Lublin was finally refunded $5,715 from American Express but only after nine months of disputing the charge; and he got no money from Hennessey.

Bruce Iannatuono said he ordered $8,500 worth of Hennessey parts for his mechanic in Baltimore to install but was only able to use two-thirds of what was shipped, and then only after haranguing Hennessey for six months on an order that was originally promised in five weeks.

Most of the complaints come from outside Texas. Hennessey, some said, tends to take better care of local customers.

“If you were out of state, man you were fair game,” said Kyle Kent, a former employee at Hennessey Motorsports. When an out-of-state car came in it was sometimes parted out, with the wheels, tires and whatever else looked good going to other cars waiting to be finished or sold outright, according to Kent and others inside Hennessey Motorsports. Then Hennessey would call the car’s owner and try to sell him an upgraded kit. If the customer balked, Hennessey would take parts from other cars in the shop, or just let the job sit.

Kent described one typical disassembly on an out-of-state Viper. “The motor and transmission went into a Durango John was putting together, the brakes went to someone else, the hood went to a guy in Ohio, the rear bumper to South Carolina, man you name it. We had multiple cars like that.”

Another common practice was putting stock parts on what was supposed to be an upgraded car.

“One customer spent $130,000 to $140,000 and that guy thought he had purchased a Venom 650R package which he thought came with the stroker motor,” Kent said. “John told him he was getting a stroker. He was just getting heads and cams.”

Hennessey denies any wrongdoing.

“I’ve got probably 3000 customers,” he said. “I’ve built over 300 cars and out of that I’ve had a handful of people that I’ve had some sort of a delivery problem with and I’ve had some of them who have sued me. So is that some sort of a trend or is that par for the course?”

So now tell me, would you still buy from Hennessey? His company is legendary, but stealing hundeds of thousands from your customers and parting off their very own cars is NOT good business practice! This guy should be in Jail! Spread the word about this if you feel the same.

Notice the court orders from more than one state and real examples of wrongdoing. That's the difference between a smear campaign and reality.

I consider myself an Audi specialist, and I have never heard of using a boost controler on any vehicle to control "levels acorording to gear selection". They are used to regulate boost according to RPM to keep an optimum fuel mixture at all times, no matter what gear.

THE MOTODYNE WEBPAGE WAS JUST UPDATE

Just FYI, the day I started this thread and 'tuned s4' responded, a price was placed on the Motodyne website (which has a great picture of its "as seen in Ronin" N20 system{used on an S8}, a 1.8T manifold)

With all the mud that is being thrown in here, I want to fully seperate myself from this thread. I didnt mean for it to turn into all of this... [headbang]

im in favor of RKA's proposition...

btw, "Walter" (robert) there was someone on audizine 1.0 that i dont recall the name of, but on a motodyne thread (that i could find if the search feature worked on the archive website that holds records of audizine 1.0) i specifically remember it, but the username fails me. i'm going to look into it further and i'll be back with some findings if anything comes up.

wrong, it's not a 1.8T manifold for someone who claims to be
ie" I consider myself an Audi specialist"
your not a very bright one then
Ever see or hear of an AVCR type boost controller and an RV overdrive unit being bolted onto a ZF tranny no because you didn't go to motodyne.

Maybe your backing out of your thread because your full of yourself

your post got more attention then anything you've ever talked about here?

Full of myself?? I asked a simple question, looking for a simple answer from a few people. Now you have turned it into a joke. I was in full support of you in the begining, but now you've burnt every bridge in this place, and you keep fighting. Unlike your postes around this place, mine are all to keep with whatever business I may, and help a few people out where I can. This isnt even my primary Audi group site.
But obviously working for a chemical comany gives you more knowledge about these vehicles than my automotive engineering degree and employment with a supporting company to AoA ever will. Boy I hope I can learn from this...

All of a sudden you feel compelled to remove yourself from this post or did somebody threaten your audiworld membership is that the problem?

they never showed any "N20 system" on the car in Ronin. It was mentioned, but not shown. it was a movie..... movies are staged incase you didnt know.

next, unrelated to all this... but does Clumpymold know that his car is plastered on the motodyne website?

also cute how audiworld members get a special inflated price...

i guess it doesnt pay to be a dick... but atleast people on audiworld are smart enough to not want to buy it no matter what the price is.

Sorry I brought that up. I found it amusing it was mentioned in the movie, but never actually shown or used, yet Motodyne seems to be taking credit for having it.
For anyone that has been sucked into seeing this page by this post, might as well see it now

http://www.motodyne.com/frames/audi_a8s8ms8l.html

At the bottom of the page is an "N20 system", but the picture gets me. The body of that picture looks like a 1.8T intake...other than 'tuned s4', does anyone think otherwise?

no, its cool, thats another solid false claim. because it wasnt showed in Ronin, it was mentioned.

Your basically showing how jealous you are of a persons achievements.
For an Audi specialist you claim to be.... How come you can't properly identify the manifold.

If it's going to be personal, take it offline.

Actually, this Thread hasn't been very informative for awhile now, don't see it getting back on topic or not continuing on this back-and-forth path, so it's lock time.

Moral of the story, if you don't like a specific shop/tuner, then don't give them your business.
