I think 06Sti hit the nail on the head
It shouldn't be about where the darn thing is made, as long as the product does what its promised to do and perform to the customer's expectations, it's a good product.
having worked in the Electronics world for the last 7 yrs, I can relate to this since everybody loves sony, and sony HD tvs are made in Mexico, doesn't mean they are bad products with astronomical fail rates

Hi,
My name is Bruce Kwartler and I am new to this board. I just purchased a 2002 WRX wagon which I love.
I have been dealing with Robert Young at FP for almost 10 years now with my DSMs. I currently have a FP 3065 turbo on my 92 Talon that has run 10.5 @ 137 mph. I have been dealing with Robert so long -- even when he was back with Texas Rebuild.
I would highly reccomend doing business with FP and Rob. I have had only good experiences with 5 or 6 different FP turbos.
I want to upgrade the turbo on my WRX -- and when I do -- I will go to FP for a 16G.

I bet if I searched hard enough... I'd find your a pissed off x employee or a pos customer...
But I'm not a loser such as yourself and dont have time to dig up and start ****.

Taiwan Turbo:
Let me just say that the few threads that you have provided as proof are hardly damning evidence that Fp is using inferior products. Of all the turbochargers they sell, some will obviously fail, its the nature of man made product, a small percentage fails. But so long as a mojority operate as intended who gives a s*$t if they come from taiwan or assembled in the us, or any other combination of origin and assembly.
So long as the product works, im taken care of if the product dosen't work, they could have chimps make them for all i care.
You sound as if you have a personal vendetta against FP. You say you dont but all this effort is intended to prove a point. I hope this thread gets deleted sometime soon.
