Question What happened to the LsXtreme Performance header thread!!??

I just have an update on it in my box, but no thread... Am I going crazy, or did it get deleted and if so why?

It's deleted. Probably because the LSXtreme guy is not a sponsor here and was promoting sales in the thread.

Well I hope Justin works things out with the sponsorship because he will be a great asset to the community.

Just for curiosity, how much does the sponsorship cost per year?

I understand that the owners are out to make a dollar, but at some point, the needs and what's good for the community must be taken into consideration. If a small mom and pop shop has something innovative to offer, but yet can not afford the fees, then then owners may need to reevaluate some things for the good of the community. --Just say'n

Its not the owners trying to make a dollar. Its the sponsors who provide this site to you guys who have to make a living. There are numerous sponsors who provide the same service they pay to play. Give them your business so you can still enjoy this site.

Oh no doubt Bro... Hell... I have even offered to pay a membership fee more than once. If my budget allows, I will by first from a member, then from a sponsor then outsource (ebay)...

You will deff be getting my business for a set of Engine plates when I have the chance

WW 5 months (come October), yeah that is a little much to ask for. I can't believe Justin would do something like that, especially when there is so much money to be made... sad...

Well good luck Bro, I hope you and he can work this out.

Justin said he is pretty much closed down. Most likely from all the people he screwed over me including, and I paid for a full system from headers to duals. He still refuses to refund me, and says he can't do anything about his frozen paypal account. I call BS.

Did you even read through the thread? Not sure how you can make this statement after doing so.

Well seeing how I asked where the thread is, I guess it would be safe to assume that I had missed some things

I second what Devil's Mentor said. If Justin was good at running his business he would be a great asset to those who are on a budget and wanted some nice stainless headers. Those whose actually received his product said it looked great and from what I saw of the ypipes they looked good as well. As a college kid he seemed like a Godsend for someone on a budget. Too bad it didnt work out cause I woulda had some money for his products.

Ya continuing to take orders while knowing your back logged up the ***. Fake tracking numbers, promises he knew he could never keep... Sounds like an asset to the community right there... Give your heads a shake.

Like I said if he was good at running a business.. Clearly he is not. Affordable stainless headers would of been an asset if provided by a good seller or why else would have people on this forum given him a try.

******* took my money, and won't give it back. I ordered headers and duals for $630. I received headers after 2 months only after bugging him everyday. Now he is not making duals, and says his paypal is frozen so I can't get my money back. This pos doesn't care who he screws.

We should form a club, there seems to be a lot of us.

Give your money to Texas speed instead.

No members, no forum. That's how it works. You won't ever get my business with that attitude
