OP
I did find this however... which i found kind of strange
http://www.hondaprelude.to/forums/ar...p/t-97786.html
Also The phone number on his storefront comes back as a business called "Detailing by Bruce" which is also the same phone number for TTM. How does a tuner who is so busy have time to detail cars? Whats next....Housekeeping by Hulk?
Well I'll leave it at that.

Check the steel braided hose that's used to loop the rail. I had the same issue with the FTP rail. Turns out the hose was permeating fuel because they failed to use a Teflon lined hose. I removed the hose and capped off the fittings on the rail and the fuel smell problem at idle is now gone.
i didn’t know that,, Steve(FTP) should Explain about that>>!?!<<
Thankss for sharing......

He seemed to respond pretty quickly on his facebook page. Maybe someone should send him a nice message their.

LoL, that is funny. Keeping the ole guy busy, guess someone's car isn't being worked on. Probably already spent the money and don't have the parts anyway.

Out Of Control!!
Good luck to the OP and the rest of the members in receiving proper compensation. Unfortunately I don't think this is the only vendor that has screwed people over and yet people still praise them

Are you stating that the hose that comes with the TTM fuel rail kit can leak FUEL?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
If this is true this is serious for us in hot climate countries!?!?!

+1,,
Honestly; i sent "2" fuel rails to the fine friend Steve(FTP),
First one from almost "7" months, i didn’t receive it, cause some incorrect info. to the courier company,
for that its been returned to Steve, then Steve asked me to ship it again, but i denied,
[[cause i started to hate it & i don’t like to ride inside the empty circle either]]
The other one sent about month ago, didn’t receive it yet,
payment for both has been sent....!!

I can think of several that have gone bust and done the same **** through out the years of us been here...some of this stuff is old!
- EuroElites (AdamG@NorCal)
- 360
- evosport
- LET
- VRP
- Vadim@ FD
- 110 motoring
- Fluid motor union
- Power chip
- MCD Motorsports
- TTMotorsports
- MHP
- FTP
- Red Tooth
- Some company that made heat exchanges for the C/E 55's, also went poof, can't remember their name
- insert name of random wheel company since they are so many of them
I can go on, but will have to go several years back to check...which is not worth it...
Each and every one of these so called companies were the cream and the beez wax if you asked people then....until the truth started to come out...that is a long disgusting list if you ask me, all made and promoted through these forums
At the end of the day it does really come to light, might as well go deal with the big boys and spend a bit more, for that added peace of mind...just looking at the names above brings back old horror stories of the past

Now back to the topic at hand!

If your car wreaks of fuel, whether it be at a stoplight or in your garage, just take the engine cover off and take a big whiff where the hose is. If you Google under "steel braided hose fuel smell" there are quite a few posts about this issue. More importantly I was told by a reputable source that the looped rail does not help at all. So off comes the hose and gone is the smell of fuel. This issue started after a few months of driving so you might not notice it right away. So if or when you do notice it do what I said and give that hose a big sniff. It just might be your problem as well.
Now back to the topic at hand!

World fastest deletion of messages on Facebook
At least it's now obvious that Bruce 100% knows all about these threads and cannot respond to them.
It is fairly obvious to me that Bruce is going to be shutting his doors soon, it's just a matter of how much money he can scam before he does. i would love to hear from some of the people who have a car at his shop, some of which have been there for quite a while.
Imagine what Bruces screen looks like right now, he has Facebook open on one window, the rip off report on another, MBWorld on another, BB on another (I'm surprised that they have not run with the story yet, Sticky is usually on this stuff pretty fast). He is probably paying the most attention to MBWorld right now while deleting comments from Facebook in between. HELLO BRUCE When is the garage sale, is their even anything worth buying that belongs to you or are you behind on all your payments for your equipment too?

Not to hijack, but it looks like you are Spot On with the rail problem.. Just spoke to my shop and they indicated a Strong smell around the line Bruce built me a bad line it looks like
#193
Glad I was able to help! It's not that it's a bad line. He just went the cheap route and used regular steel braided hose instead of the Teflon lined hose which costs more.

The H/E company you are referring to was Code3? I think. I had everything for the C32 from them

If anyone knows who to deal with now in the Long Island NY area then pls let me know. If there is anyone who isn't robbery anyway! I guess I will just buy the parts and install them myself and tune it from EC I guess but I have no idea who my tune is actually from! I mentioned earlier that I had it done by Bruce in early March. So I guess it was either EC or the other guys (forgot the name).

FYI: Bruce Bejsovec Tuning Technology Motorsports Facebook page, deleted.
Man, I wonder why he doesn't come here and save some face, this will get to him eventually, legally, financially, socially, personally, he should tackle this situation head on and FIX IT!, but to each his own.
