SELLSZ06 - Awaiting kit (Kit has some custom features?)

I forget anyone? J&J?

somehow I fell off the list I am either waiting for COMPLETE KIT OR COMPLETE REFUND whichever comes first. I am contacting CC company for refund in am tomorrow. MBNA which kicks ***. Bill has agreed to ship kit either way and they can recharge my card upon me receiving it I believe.

WOW. This sounds like INCON all over again. Very few kits sent out, only parts of other kits sent out, and lots of missing and lost unaccounted for money. Good luck to the customers that have trusted HI FLO with there money. I hope you guys all come out in the good. I would also like to think my freinds for talking me out of getting in on the first 20 kits.

I think that most of the 1st 20 customers, if they really sold that many, have got their money back and moved on. I believe there are 5 or so still waiting on kits or refunds.

Very smart people and thank god for credit card charge back. Could you imagine going up there and trying to collect $5000 from them.

Interesting point...there only seems like 4-5 people that have admitted to waiting for kits..in fact...have we heard of more the a few that got refunds?

I will tell them the thing has been on backorder since last oct and I have been hearing nothing but excuses to keep on waiting all along. Bill has also agreed to send out the kit either way this week I will definetly post here as soon as ANYTHING developes.

If f-body kits were on top the list to build why is there 10 c-5 kits done and no f-body kits sounds like your full of ****, this sounds like excessive motorsports deal that alot of people got screwed. so explain bill, why there are 10 corvette kits done while none are sold and no f-body kits done and you have money for those, im not a customer but i talked to you guys about a kit so im just wandering. off topic but turbo kits are a bitch to get, i talked to stenod and joe acted like i was bothering him when you got 12,000 bucks to spend with a businesss they should answer questions and help you out, so they didnt get my money either

I have not spoken with marko in over 5-6 months, and bill only once on AIM about a part i thought i had in my garage, turns out i didnt. I have no knowlege as to whats going on nor can i make educated guesses, nor can any of you really. you can state whats goin on, but to say its incon or that he ran outta money etc, thats all just assumptions based on lack of knowledge.

the only thing i am blown away at is that no one from the shop has poped in here to calm everyone. the one thing marko was good about when my car was there was answering/returning calls. this is definatly not the norm. You guys really need to just drop in here and at least tell us that youre so busy bustin *** you have no time to post on here.. or anything...

Look Im not trying to burn any bridges here, and Im not trying to defend Marko, Bill, or any one @ STC/HIFLO. I was doing some research and I stop over at the shop several times in the past 2 months, before I made up my mind on doing this kit, I have read all post in here and what I see/read is not cool at all. But why I made up my mind is that I saw all/majority of all the kits there getting sent out for coating,or done getting ready for shiping. Now this was about a 2 an a half weeks ago to 3 weeks ago. Dont take this as a sign of goodness that there getting there act straight, thats not what Im trying to say. I live close by to the shop I go there about 3 times a week just to see what the hell is going on with my car. And again not trying to back them up, but there are 2 or 3 guys/"techs" working there at this time thats including Bill. Every time Im there, a different part is off my car and the other vehs. that are in the shop.. Theres a mustang that the kit is already done, theres a vette thats getting a lot of things done at this time, but dont now if thats a cust car or workers car. But they might be doing a moc up kit to that do to the fact that the car was there the longest that I have seen.


Again Im not here to save any ones asses or make someone think that STC/HIFLOs **** has gotten an better.Or say that Bill or Marko is going to start calling, its hard for me to get a hold of them. Or let someone think that there kit is ready or shipped out, I just dont know that part. All I know is that everytime that Im there getting my parts from my car that Bill is busy,or looks that way to me,and every time I see Marko hes on the phone ordering **** or just running around the shop with his head cut off. I hope that everyone gets there kits aswell as I get mine, or gets there money back with the ones that where returned.

I will keep everyone posted on whats going on with my car and try to get some info for you guys/girls out there to see if theres any updated news.

That Mustang had been there the longest, it's still there.....lol That vette you speak of is Bill's.

What kind of car do you have? When did it get to that shop? 2 months ago?

So IF they made 20 initial kits, and we're only down to less than 5 people actually still getting kits, the rest have gotten returns.... whats happening with the other 15 kits then? They need to inform you guys on whats going on. Very nice looking kit and i hate to see this happen. Best of luck

I think all we can do is hope for the best, but this thread doesn't seem to be helping anything, it probably should have been locked a while ago?
