SYTY SUPERSTORE
This morning at 2:21am our shop was broken into. If anyone hears or sees anything suspicious please let us know.
Here are some of the items we immediately noticed were taken:
~ 50 RPM 38mm Wastegates (Polished, Red, Black, and Blue)
* With the exception of one customer, any red or blue wastegate on the market is stolen. We just finished machining these.
~ 75 Liquid filled fuel pressure gauges
~ 15 Walbro 255 fuel pumps
~ 1 Set 23 Deg Pontiac Heads (fully done up, all new valvetrain)
~ 1 GM 18 Deg Head (was for my motor, the other head is still on the shelf.. wtf?)
~ 7-10 New Turbonetics Turbos in boxes
~ turbonetics wastegates (racegate and evo gate)
~ Nikon D1 digital camera
- Desktop Computer and laptop
~ SYTY Intercooler Core (new)
- Racepak datalogger computer
and i'm sure plenty of other things... Initial police report was in excess of $50k
Basically the alarm company called and within 15 minutes my partner josh was on the scene. Side door was pulled off and the bay door was open. He shined his truck lights into the shop and you can see all the way into the back. Seemed empty. As he started to walk in, loaded gun in hand he noticed a mid 90s white chevy 1500 series truck driving by for the second time. Kinda odd at 2:30 in the morning.. Had no license plate, and a large black chevy bowtie emblem on the tailgate. So just as he got into his truck and started to follow the white truck, a guy comes running out of the shop. He throws the truck in reverse trying to run him over but the thief outran what the duramax was capable of doing in reverse. Within seconds to guy leaped over a fence and disappeared. COps soon arrived but came up empty handed. We were able to get some really good prints from where the guy was perched up on the front window looking out. It was either a lookout or one of the thiefs shitting himself when he knew the only way out of the shop was in the direction of a pissed off shop owner with a loaded gun, or through the glass window.
We'll go through some paperwork today to see what all was taken, but please keep an eye out for us.
