I was wondering if anyone knows anything about Real Performance Motorsports? I was in Lewisville Sat. and found that it is now a off-road shop.

Yeah, it started with me jacking with them about the parts they supposedly ordered, to trying to get my money back, to trying to get mastercard to do something about it wich was a wast of time. I now have a lawyer on it.

Is this the same RPM that the owner use to date this chick named Lydia? LOL if it is! Yet I feel really bad for you for losing money to them. Hopefully you do get it back because that's fucked up!

No, Im in Wichita Fall with a red 02 Mustang. I had ordered Trickflow heads and cams through them and they was supposed to do all the work on it and tune it but nothing ever happened except for my mastercard getting raped.

hmm.. wonder what the rest of the story is... if you ordered parts on a CC and they were never delivered, i dont see why your CC company wouldn't honor your chargeback...


something just doesn't sound right....

I hear ya. I have been dealing with this for a year and a half now and getting more pissed by the day.
Its partly my bad for thinking i could handle it myself over the phone from two hours away but i kinda like to fight my own battles. Especially when it comes to having to pay someone to do it for me.
