OFI Turbo Kit Owners
How long did you have to wait to get your turbo kit? What's reasonable and what's not?

A lot of people have played the waiting game with Joel. Do a search for the OFI kit and you'll find quite a few threads complaining on the wait time. And I agree with your thread made on the sponsor feedback section. I dont think LS1tech should allow this with a sponsor, especially after seeing all the complaints made towards it. I'm sure he is a busy person, but 4 months wait on a kit that was promised two weeks is a bit ridiculous.

It took me 10 months to get the complete kit that I was quoted 4-6 weeks. I had to get it uncoated just so I could have it that quick. It's been right at a year since I ordered my kit and I'm still waiting on a $552 refund that I'm owed.

Its been over 6 months for me so far and im still waiting.
He also said "It wont be a problem" for me getting a $55x refund for my coating aswell. I have yet to see that money or over half of my kit.
I also dont get why the other OFI thread was locked and why the sponsors are sticking up for him.
Many many people on here have been screwed over by LONG waits, no refunds, wrong parts, parts that dont fit, etc. You cant hide the facts here, it is what it is.
I personally am just tired of this whole deal. I really just want my money back, but it seems thats not going to happen. So instead I continue to wait for my parts and am out over $5200 while my car is on jackstands.
Knowing what i know now there is NO way I would buy from him or this kit again. I dont care if its the best quality parts I have ever seen and it makes 1500hp. Its not worth it.
Good luck to everyone who has money out with OFI.

I check out the sponsors feedback forum pretty much everyday to do a little snooping if I'm about to order some parts and see other peoples experience before I choose a company.
After all those posts you guys have made... even if he gave me a free kit, I wouldn't take it..because it would take so long..hah

Joel is a good guy with the best intentions. We all know how intentions go in this field.
If I were in a similar situation, I would get the Hotparts, Cold Side, and Radiator from Joel.
The rest I would outsource from other sponsors and get them in a more timely manner.
Just MHO.

[QUOTE=bluecamaroz28;9955924]So, you did get your kit, right? When did you order it?
I would have to look back at the invoice, i did order my OFI kit through EPP,maybe that helped speed up the pace of getting my kit.I know i had ordered my kit before Joel started having sales on his kits.On a side note my car should be on the dyno end of this week beginning of next week.

I'm on 10 months with mine and still waiting on refunds as well. I thought a sponsor couldn't sell anything on here unless they had it in stock? Either way, I forsee a lawsuit towards OFI coming very soon

after dealing with pro-turbo kits and HP turbo kits for my two mustangs, which i waited on both almost a year...i would say in over all in the performance world, it seems like there is always something to wait on... i waited on one double bead lock alumni-star for almost 6 months...i had the first one in a month then 5 months later the other showed up.

It took 10+ Months for me and I still didn't get everything. I ended up taking a loss on about $2000 worth of stuff. I finally gave up begging back and forth getting no results and had to get some of the parts like the wastegate, etc on my own. I think his kit is killer I just wish he had better business practices. Its a shame that someone can order a kit through EPP and get it right away, yet you have many others that have waited as long as many have and still have very little or nothing. At this point you cannot order a kit through him. I really dont see how he is a sponsor at this point. Its a shame.

I would hardly say that 6 months is no time.Had the same problems with having to wait a long time for certain items that he doesnt control.But eventually we got everything and it was awesome quality.What i dont get is all u people that are bashing him ,some of the people that are bashing him when u all knew that he was taking quite a while to get these kits out yet u still ordered the kit.

i am not saying that about everyone obviously.i also agree with people should get what they pay for.My comment i made was towards the guys that come on here , post and ask about the OFI kit.They are told that the kit is great quality but takes quite a while to get.They go ahead and order it they complain.I to was frustrated that it took longer than i wanted it to , to get my kit.But i didnt come on here and bash Joel and complain either.
