Yes, yes it is.

The tranny is from a White 05 Evo and Henry has a black 06 Evo.... This was the first thing we noticed. And today we are going to pull the valve cover off to see if there is anything else missing. Then we'll take off the oil pan to see if it is in fact a 2.3L stroker in there.

He has a guy building a motor for him, he wanted to make sure that this wasnt pulled off of his motor and sold on the side is what I understand.

He sold parts out from under him while the car was at his place and replaced them with stock parts.
I am still confused, I contacted the guy who had posted the turbo for sale and asked him to contact me over text.. A few hours later I got a text from a guy who said his name on the forum was dapper dan and he was located in Niceville Florida. I talked to him for a bit asking him questions about the turbo condition etc... Then he gave me a paypal address and I made payment he then shippped it. When I got it from him it had 3 broken studs that I had to have removed. I asked him to refund the money I spent to have the studs removed since he did not tell me about them and he would not. I have a reciept from paypal from when I paid him for the turbo. I am also going to post the pm's I have from both members (tradervic and dapper dan) So your telling me that you got a transmission back without your proper vin and your not questioning him? And how would you not know your turbo was missing?

I'm guessing because they upgrade the internals of the turbo and it still appears to be a 9. Didn't you say you send him cash plus a 9 turbo? It isn't easy to see the stamp. It might be a good time to file a claim with paypal, like now. It sounds like this guy has scammed you and the original owner of the car.

hell yeah i confronted him(dapper dan real name is nickolas nguyen) about the transmission.. he said some bull shiet that he did it by mistake and told me if i really think he would screw over a person like that..i told him theres no way for someone that works on evos with his knowledge to just mistakenly put in a evo 8 tranny in a evo 9 car... and all he had to say is if i can get the name registered to that vin.. i have to go to the local PD for that... i did do a carfax report on that vin and lead me to a white 05 evo * registered in florida... havent heard from him since... he will after i take apart my car...

if anyone is interested specially the southeast region that knows of dapper dan... do a vew public profile on trader vic ct9a and view all threads posted by the user.. i believed he used this to sell and replace my parts... there you will find almost everything i had on my car for sale. and anyone in florida that has a 05 white evo please come in contact with me i need to fine my orginal tranny to my evo 9.

I am sorry that sucks I did pay for the turbo though I would have had no way to know it was yours. I sent him a text asking him what the deal was and he has not responded. Contact me via pm and lets see if we can figure this out. Is dapper dan involved with adfab or a guy named Tony by any chance?

he sold you the turbo along with a bunch of my parts listed for sale when it was at his place in niceville.. i did not noticed my red turbo because its identical to a stock 9 turbo and my stock heatsheild is on.. i ddint expect this from him and now im screwed over and the amount, you guys do not want to know at all. lets jus say it makes me feel like my evo does not belong to me.
