I'm still holding out lots of hope - I don't have a reason to back out just yet, and I've been a good boy and saving up money to do other things in the meantime. Hopefully I'm going to have a lovely set of wheels come next year.

I've been paid in full since the beginning. I tried to pay them in full before they were actually taking payment but they wouldn't let me stating that people tend to get impatient with that amount of money out there. I've been non vocal and patient but I would be lying if I said I'm not getting a little antsy.

Guess what. Still no refund. It's been a month now that I've been waiting. I'll be contacting my bank today to see what options I have for disputing the charges.

One of these things is not like the other.

Wow! I'm sorry you have to go through this. How did you pay if you don't mind me asking?

I used a debit card. Every time I talk to Sam he says he's processing it and that it should only take a couple days to show back up in the account. We'll see what he says today.

Update: We finally got a response from our casting company today on the status of the cast parts that we have had on order with them. They are telling us that we can expect to have the parts within the next 30 days. The parts we have on order are our new, updated cast manifolds, new turbine outlets for the factory cats, and new O2 sensor housings for our modular 3” downpipes.

As for our mandrel bender, there have been numerous setbacks with the bender supplier. For starters, we were supposed to have the dies in hand before the end of this month as of their most recent schedule. That has been pushed back since the original wiper dies were not leaving a desirable finish on the bent pipes and had to be reworked. This of course was after our metal supplier sent the incorrect temper piping to the bending company to test the dies and ensure they work correctly. The bending company is estimating that we will have the dies in hand on November 8th. They expect that they can have the bender setup, up and running sometime between November 11th and the 15th.

Please be advised that this is information that is passed on to us on when we can expect things to happen. Given all the setbacks we have seen thus far, this schedule is preliminary and not set in stone. As such, this schedule is subject to change.

As we get information in that changes any of the projected dates, we will post up the information. Also, bear in mind that once the parts come in, we will need to process them all, do quality control and then start packaging up the kits to ship them out.

We have a system in place that will allow us to ship the kits very quickly and we are already working on putting together the components that we already have in stock in anticipation for the arrival of the final components. Without going into great detail, we have a system in place that will allow us to put a turbo kit together complete, in a box, ready to ship within 2 hours.

We will also be posting two new threads. One will be about the latest results from car that got our first iteration of the MHI kit. The car had 10,000 miles on the kit and we brought it back in to tear it down and inspect the system. We will be sharing what we discovered and give some more insight into this new system. The second thread will be about the GTX upgrade option.

Thank you guys, for your continued patience.

Whats the deal with the cast parts? Going on 40 days+ just waiting for the casts?

Any guys that bought tuner kits need fuel injectors? I have some Bosch EV14 750cc with pigtails. You will not find a better price. Brand new.

COSMO · 12-13-2013, 09:26 PM

What are you looking to get for them john? I may be interested if they can get me past the 600whp mark without running the duty cycle too high...

They will run 650-700whp at 80%. They are brand new. I know a local company that buys these buy the tens of thousands and there pricing is out of this world. I paid $550. Shipped to you $400. I want them gone.

Yea I would like to hear an update as well. I talked to sam about 1.5-2 weeks ago and we were pretty much just waiting on the casting company. I would think they heard from them since then... Sam, if we could get a current update on where we stand with the whole kit that would be great! I got my car torn apart, and all my supporting mods installed, all I need is the kit, getting a little antsy lol
