Are you not wanting to stick it out with them in court? :scratch:

I know your build list is better than what you had, but you should at least have gotten fair replacement value for the turbos and for the motor...

RB25DETT motors are worth about 6k CN used. Seems about right to me but not sure if that covers anything else that was damaged
