Ok here goes first this is all fact from what I was told and from their site as of today. I had an issue with my car whenever I would start to get into boost on my 04 trilogy equipped marauder it would fall flat on its face like fuel was cutting out went to a shop near by and tried to fix it before I went to St.thomas ont for the tour etc. The individual was not expecting me until after the tour but still accommodated me and we tried some things but to no success ran out of time. (Dang it I wanted to run up at sparta as well but could not thanks SW). Well here it is today and after finding out during my trip that the cats where gutted blown out etc etc nothing there and placed a call to SW which I wont even go into detail on that but did eventually get them to send me 2 new cats. Mind you they also said that the cats where blown out because of the trilogy set up(really 9 PSI on a 3 inch system I would have thought it should be able to handle that! I fart harder then that!) They also said that I repeat I would need to further modify the new cats before install! (I would compare that to getting a new car with only half the engine assembled and you have to do the rest really SW!) My system is barley a year old wow great stuff there!. Now when I asked several people who worked there last year if the trilogy kit would cause an issue I was told no way that it could! Now onto a copy and paste directly from their site!!!

You show me here above where it says that it will possibly not work with a S/C etc nope don't see any warning at all do you kinda miss leading. don't believe me go to there site quick before they read this post and change their site!!! Had I know that my trilogy would have been an issue I may not have gone to them. I feel slightly mislead!!
As the cats blew out they also destroyed the O2 sensors cost me almost 200 from ford for 2 new ones guess I probably wont get any money back from them on this, fine as I will not be suggesting or ever using them again. Very rude on the phone also with me. Now onto some pictures for you all to see the carnage from A SW system!! first one is the O2 sensors, #2 is left mid pipe, three is right mid pipe. look at that could that be an issue??? hmmm. More pics next post!!
