Outkasted - That is not necessary and sounds like fraud. The IRS is all over them like white on rice either way.

Guess i'll share my experience as well, or a very close friends at least.

He was having his SR built and took it to DC, they finished it up and in doing so pointed his External wastegate at the brake fluid reservoir. Which in turn led to him getting about 1/4 of the way home on hillsborough safely till the whole engine bay lit up like christmas.

They of course denied everything, and were no willing to work with him. Lots of money down the drain.

The shop would have been demolished by a heavy amount of explosives if I were him. This is bullshit, and sitting around talking about it on TR is bullshit. This doesn't have to sound like fraud to take them down, IT IS FRAUD. What the fuck is so hard to see? If anyone worked there, all connected were apart of it at some point and time. Own up, and take it to authorities. Everything was waiting so long to be talked about, do it now.. fuck. Ian has been doing this for years, it's over so many more forums than just this. End this bullshit, a thread on a message board is fucking pointless.

I have never personally dealt with them, and have no business here. I just wanted to say that you sound like your sitting their cock. What does it matter that people want to vent, and post up their experiences, last time I checked- they have a right to.

It's not like you're the one getting a bad name, why do you care so much? At a time like this, this thread is very much so needed.

All you guys posting about breaking into the shop and vandalizing,stop saying that,that is another level.


Seems ALOT of people have been fucked over...How come this has never been brought to attention of other members?


Seems like Ian finally dug DC's hole though,Everyone needs to remember CUSTOMERS are the reason that shop is still open,and only we can keep his dream alive.

Do not support Driven Concepts,if this is all truth,"Performance" shops are a dime a dozen these days.

We MUST weed out the bad ones.

As I see fit,the only shop I will back is BVP.
