Post Fuddle feedback - moved to this forum

Do not buy from this company. I ordered a converter with a trans cooler. Converter came and no cooler. Called said would send one out right away. It has been since Jan. and no cooler or reply to emails. Decided to sell brand new converter and buy a Yank. My car is a Z06. I am in the process of converting to Auto 427 with twin turbos. He lied to me and I don't trust to put this converter in a 1000+ rwhp car.

I have had a fuddle and had ABSOLUTLY NO problems with them or customer service...
Their customer service actually went WAY out of the way for me, as they do for alot of people!
Ive had it in now for 5000-10000 miles, 3600 stall....

You could have bought a trans cooler for 25 dollars

I believe this should go in the sponsor feedback section anyways...

Exactly, that makes no sense. I understand you would be upset too.

Ok so you've got a twin turbo 427 IN A Z06 and you cheaped out and went for a fuddle? Bad move.
I do agree that if they promise a transmission cooler with the purchase of a converter they should sent it.
To those who disagree imagine if I sold you something in the classified section here and skipped out on a few parts. Would you just let it go? NO.

I have had nothing but good things to say about fuddle.
I have over 18000 miles on mine w/o any issues whatsoever.
Plus, I am running nitrous, something that this particular converter was probbably not built to handle. When it does finally let go, I certainly won't be able to blame it on quallity of manufacture, but rather on my lack of foresight.
You see, the cb and 'verter were to be my only mods, lol!
