*RESOLVED* Anyone else getting jacked around by Griffin? Lucky for them, I have been busy with work and family stuff.
But I'm itching to put the Formy back on the road in turbo form.
But wait... no intercooler. After repeated conversations with Benji in sales, I got nada. Benji is new so it's not his fault. But I ordered the intercooler at the end of last year.
This is completely bogus. Apparently Jim in engineering can't even get this intercooler expedited.
I guess I give up. Talk about lousy customer service.
I guess I will check out the big OBX, Spearco, Bell, or some A/W solution...
I literally have every other part sitting in boxes.

Damn that sucks dude...I have my Griffin already mounted in...Let me tell you, it's a quality piece... If you need one for the time being you could probably run the OBX or something like people are suggesting but I would sell it once you got the Griffin cuz it's freaking nice and a HUGE difference

Bell is fast, and will make anything you need...

I've never had an issue w/ Spearco/Turbonetics, but I'd try Bell too.
If I go A/W, I'm getting mine from Chiseled Performance. I think Outlaw can attest to how good his stuff is.

John, what the hell is wrong with you? At least THREE members have designed, ordered, and received custom Bell intercoolers SINCE THE LAST TIME YOU POSTED ABOUT GRIFFEN. Not since you ordered, just since that last thread. That's completly rediculous. My assumption was that you were getting the Griff for free and that was your excuse...but damn...last year? Hell, Tony has a spearco-cored unit sitting around probably still on ebay right now.

Money no object then go with the bell intercoolers, looks like quick turnaround and pretty decent pricing for a custom made IC.
Money issues or wife hating you spending money on the car = OBX, XOXO racing ebay intercoolers.
Cant beat the ebay coolers for the price tho

I talked to Benji at Griffin today, and he had no news. Sounds like they are blowing off all the intercooler orders right now. I asked him to ask Jim B. in engineering to look into this.
I was trading an intercooler for advertising, but I might take them to small claims court for non-payment if something doesn't happen soon.

Man that sucks John
Pretty sad when they can't put a IC together in less than a day let alone a few freakin months
I know how it is to have a project stalled on a part....I can't even get to the track because my new tranny keeps puking fluid.. low or full it doesn't matter it pukes it out....shoulda went with a built TH400

We can occasionally do it FormulaFire, but in this situation, these guys are apparently blowing off a lot of intercooler customers from what I heard. How can guys take in orders if they are taking 6 months to fill them... Folks should avoid these guys like the plague.
