Joel has learned a lot from this. He has tried to make a high quality product that is difficult to engineer(and has succeeded). He has tried to make it available at a competitive price(and has succeeded). He has tried to make it deliverable in an 'best guess' time frame(and, due to the large number of orders, been unable to comply). I'd be willing to bet all of you will get your kits and will be highly satisfied with the quality and fitment and price. Joel will advance the estimated deliverable time, based on what he's encountered in "real time". We should all buy stock in Coffee companies because Joel will be upping his intake of the energizing fluid by an exponential figure, staying in the welders area, flashing yet another piece of artwork for our eager and awaiting cars.

Hang in there Joel, you have a great quality looking kit. Hopefully one day I will be an LT1 kit owner, have to save up for a low compression motor build and the kit
I still would like to come out and check out the shop and have a look around, but I am sure you are very busy at the moment, maybe I could stop around in the spring.
Craig.

Joel thanks for yet another update and delay.
I am posting this publicly cause I want others to know whats going on also.
Like I said in the return pm, if I dont have everything by the end of next week I am doing a chargeback with my bank. The only thing I would exclude is the IC since you say the guy is still working on them but I want everything else, turbo included.
I am trying to work with you but its gone on too long and each week its another delay. I hope for your own future and reputation you can get me my stuff. I am sure if I get it I will forget all this and be happy as hell but at this point I have doubts.
thanks man

I really hope you will wait. I cant afford another refund on a gto kit. I will have 4 of them done very shortly just to sell. Intercooler is still being made as I know. I will call him tonight to find out. Even If I dont have that I will still ship your hotparts out to you. At least you will have something to do. Sorry about this again. I just sent out some more f-body kits today and yesterday. Im just telling you so you dont think that Im just sitting on my ***.
Thanks Joel

Too many turbo vendors have burned our members in the past, so we are tightening the screws in this forum.
Welcome to the site (again) Joel, looking forward to seeing your work.

The gto kit will be completed in 4-6 weeks. I dont know the final pricing as of yet, but it will be with in the post that PSJ started about turbo setups.
The GTO kit will fit a GT42R. None of the acc on the GTO will have to be moved. These kits will have tubular headers on both sides(coated) tig welded, Tial BOV & WG, v-band clamps, HTS silicone, t-clamps not the worm ones(lots of boost) , air to water intercooler setups. Also everything will be above the k-frame using the stock k-member. No need to cut up those bumbers.
Im not going to go into anymore detail on how the kit is setup until it is released. Pictures will be up when it is ready. I understand all the proplems that people are having lately. I have spoken to Tony about this and NO orders will be taken until the kit is done. You can call and put your name on the list if you want one, but I will not take your money. Give it to Tony to buy a c6 z06 . After I have some hot parts all made up then I will take some orders. That way they will ship out with in 1 week. The kit will be well worth it.
Thanks for reading....OFI

The kits are on order for some people of this board. They will have the kits with in the next couple weeks. I got really slammed with orders that is why I stopped taking them until Nov 1st. I hate getting behind on things for customers. Sense everything is built in house by me. I try to stay on top of things. Today (sunday) is my first day I have taken to sit and relax. Sometimes you just need a day off.

I can send you your hot parts this week, but the cold stuff I will need for the intercooler to make sure everything fits good. The oil pan drain is the same as the vortechs setup. The easist thing to do is go to there website and get the intructions for the gto kit. Its real easy to do....Thanks Joel
