I have been trying to order a WG for 2 days from them. I asked for an invoice or something so I could pay by paypal but have not heard anything from them. I know to call them, but I can paypal over the phone. I am not trying to talk smack, just wondering if anyone has used them before. I plan to order my turbo from them as well, but now I am not sure.

Have you e-mailed them or did you leave them a message?? We do ALOT (Order 5-15 turbos a week) of business with them, and they are awesome. Some parts are hard to get, but its due to their suppliers being slow. Phone's are usually hard to contact people with sometimes. Try calling Turbonetics or Garrett.....lol. You'll be listening to their crap music for an hour on hold.....lol

I emailed them. Said I wanted the wastegate, and asked if the take paypal. They wrote back immediately stating the price and they do take paypal. That was it, no address to send the paypal to or anything. I wrote back asking for an invoice or some way to pay. Said they would get it out in the evening. That was 2 days ago. I wrote toady and asked for an invoice again, they said the request was sent, but I have not heard anything.

Ive called Jose and he has always answered the phone. And I have bought Eboost2 and he help me configure it at the track over the phone. I would just call them. Almost all the FI people on this site have at least bought 1 thing from him. I would just use your CC and buy from them over the phone and save the 3%. GL

/agree
I ordered a 60trim and 750 injectors from Jose and they came super fast. When i got the injectors i decided that i needed to get larger ones and he said ok its 60 bux more for them and he would ship them out the same day. I got them 2 days later and i hadent even gotten aroudn to shippin the old ones back. I since sent them back but it goes to show he is all about gettin buisness done. Definatly give them a call as its always teh best way to get **** if ur not as patient as others. I am not patient and couldnt wait days to go back and forth in emails. GL man

John

Cool. I am not trying to bad mouth them by no means. I just was wondering about the company since I was trying to use a sponsor from here, and have never used them before.

I am glad yall think highly of them.
I am getting a JGS 40MM WG. I think that will be more than big enough.

You might want to re-send it, or try PM or pick up the phone????

If its that important, you can get ahold of him.
