I believe Mike at PTE is the sales manager so you are getting accurate info.

Don’t get me wrong. Jose is a great guy and is trying to take care of me.

The reason I posted is to see if anybody else is affected with the backorder on Precision turbos. They have been giving the 1-2 weeks excuse to Jose and me for 2 months now.

How long can a shipment of turbine wheels take?

I guess I’m out of luck with Precision. I really hope that I will have the turbos in 1-2 weeks as Precision said.
Sorry your having to wait......

where did I say that I am the fastest??????

I was only showing the max wait times I have encountered.......

That was the theme of the post was it not?

Obviously, from reading the posts here one can see that a particular part number was the issue and not a company or manufacturer.

Oh and no its been more than 2 months, though I have only been on LS1tech for 2 months.

Well maybe you should try selling more than 1 turbo a month,or just try selling something that's not a common turbo like a 78mm and see how long it takes you to get it.......
