Default How long does it usually take to get a turbo from precision?

They wont give me any details b/c I bought it through FI.com, all I know is they have the order. I CANNOT get through to forced inductions, no one picks up the phone or returns calls. I talked to someone last week who said they would send an email to precision and call me back, still nothing. But it's in precision's hands now, how long do they usually take? Whoever I bought it from at FI said 5-10 build days, then shipping.

We are a dealer for Precision turbo,generally it takes just a couple of days to get anything from them,but there has been times that they had a mad rush on a certain turbo and were out of parts for that turbo.

From my experience (former dealer), it was anywhere from 3 days to 2 months. It really varies upon the time of the year, the popularity of your parts, and if your vendor you ordered it from placed the order right away.

Well FI placed the order the day I called b/c the lady at precision told me it was sent on the 10th, the day I called FI, they just couldnt get me any status updates. I wonder why they dont stock built turbos instead of building each one as it's ordered. I ordered a 76gts, just trying to see if it's going to be here this week, or if it's going to be a month.

I hate to say it but FI is dropping the ball for me lately also. I have 5 different turbo deals I am not happy with.

i was going to go .98 ar but it was back ordered a couple weeks. I decided to try a 1.12 ar on my gt4276 and it took a couple days.
