But either way, you will be getting your parts back soon.
thats not good enough. You have to clock in and out, and so do the others who have ALREADY paid you. You got yourself into this you need to make it right for them

I understand being busy and you have alot on your plate but over two months to even open a box and give him a simple answer as to how long before you get it done or even get to it? i think priorities should be checked into im sure purevil's thrilled to here that after not having a car all year

edit- actully you know what heres an idea just cut him a refund and you wont have to fix his set then give you more time for other customers still waiting

IMO you need to spill the beans on this deal so that more people dont get screwed over. I have a "general idea" as to how gz could be involved in this but i would rather have the truth than my thoughts

lets assume innocense from GZ, at the minimum they should just give him a day or two and have him finish this ****. It really doesnt matter if its their problem or not, they are being dragged into it due to him being there.

kinda like other companies on here, one employee give the company a bad name.

one bad apple, spoils the whole bunch.

thats assuming GZ has nothing to do with this, but it seems like they are involved

go back and look at my old setup. nobody willl ever again will be in the same situation with GZ the way i am so do really dont think there is much screwing going to take place in the future . you know the way i look at is i helped them out so they should return the favor. i have spoke with john and he said they are agiving him the time to get my stuff finished. that works for me.

to make it simple. i had an old q m p kit. its a log style setup. i sent it to john he tweeked it, he now works for GZ now they are sellilng a log style turbo kit. it works real well so i have heard and you can get a tang housing on it. thats my understanding. so to me they have their hand in here somewhere. they are giving him time to work on this in the shop. that is what he has told me.

Purevil's kit shipped out and turned out the problem was not tubes covering the plugs like he said

Kaos' kit I'm working on next week and will hopefully ship end of the week if I get the flanges on time
