Need advise please help!

brought my car to shop here on Tampa to perform a turbo kit upgrade
and engine management pay for new parts and half of the parts were used. The turbo lasted me less then 30 days after I pick up the car. also the oil return line blow up a week after I got my car back due to improper installation and poor work and not too mention the rest of the problem with the car and the shop

Any advise would help

Have you tried going back to shop to see if they will fix the problems with your car? See if they are registered with the BBB and file a complaint if they are not willing to fix any of the problems which occurred due to their work.

Who did the work? Is it a shop that has a forum here on TR? And I agree with ^^ first thing to do is bring it back to them and not only have them fix it but refund you some money. If you paid for new and got used that's not good business. I would have to say report them for that issue alone.

You didn't get a receipt? That unfortunally has got to be your biggest mistake. Unless you paid them with a check or credit card you now have no legal action you can take because you have no record the car was ever there. You take them to court and they can deny they even know who you are. Sorry to hear about your luck. We would be happy to fix it for you but unfortunally it will cost you. But we can work with you the best we can.
