Calling out APS

What a crock!!! I just read this whole thread and for Peter to just say ''We quit making F-Body kits'' is a bullshit answer. A lot of people have spent thousands of dollars and countless hours in the garage because of this kit. It amazes me that APS is still somehow a sponsor on this top notch sight! They continue to sponsor this sight even as more and more people report turbo failures every week and no help from APS, I couldn't even get a damn email back!! I know there are several people that are just as mad as me but haven't posted. It also amazes me how people still defend them. Yes it's a bad *** kit and design, but it is a TURBO KIT. What the hell is it worth with junk turbos?!?!

I too am surprised that APS is still a sponsor for this site. Why they still pay to be I don't know. Maybe they are wanting to sell the last few junk kits they have laying around.
That is a typical response from Peter. He never really answers the questions that are asked. I guess it was better for them financially to just drop the F body line than to fix the turbos.
I would also buy a kit minus the turbos. Hell if the turbos were good I would have bought a kit two years ago.
So does LG sell a kit with their turbo's? It was mentioned in another thread but I never heard for sure.
To the OP, great thread.

Despite any disappointments in and frustrations with my APS kit, I'm still glad I bought it! Hopefully I can still buy the f-body extreme kit upgrade and couple the larger exhaust housings with LG's upgrade.

Finally getting an answer is good but why couldn't you (Peter) reply that to the guy when he orginally PM'ed you. Personally, I beleive that is just lazyness when the thread starter (Sorry bud forgot your name) asked a question. It took this whole thread. My opinion, all the best with your company.
Cheers,
Peter

I think you and your company APS know you fucked some people over here. You choose to hide and not fix the problems with the turbo's you sold to all of us. Now APS doesnt want to support the F body anymore. APS is a ******* joke and I regret ever supporting your kit. Yea my kit ran 9's but I had to fix alot of problems and have been quiet on this board for a while. After reading countless threads of peoples turbo's cracking Id say you had a major design flaw and instead of manning up to all the problems you choose to just let the boat sink and all the persons that bought a kit from you sink with it. What comes around goes around.

By a procharger - you can buy the head unit, plumbing, whatever. They still support the f-body, kits work well and many members here (including me) have had no problems with the product...

Obviously there is a big enough market for these kits so..... What are we not being told?
